does anyone know of a porch awning besides the Bradcot Portico XL and XL+ that can utilise the caravan's rail to attach one end of the awning rather than the 'pole and padding' method used on most porch awnings?

We bought an Issabella awning some years ago. We also bought a porch awning conversion kit, which consists of a pole and padding for one side of the awning.

By buying a slightly smaller awning and cutting into the "cord", we now have an awning which is normal at the front of the 'van but is like a porch awning at the rear.

Just before lockdown we had it professionally re-corded and stitched. It works a treat for us.

I'm sure any awning dealer could explain the process.
