Hi I am looking for a lightweight awning but not a porch awning, the problem is everyone that I have looked at says that your depth from awning rail to floor must be 235cm - 250cm, and my ABI Award Nightstar is 210cm up to 240cm but only in one spot, so we have been told that we cannot get one to fit it. Our local shop said that it is because our caravan is a couple of years too old and from 2000 the depth is normally 235cm our caravan is 1997. If anyone knows how to get round this problem I would be very grateful.

Not sure whether the lightweight awnings they are talking about on here are of any use to you?
