Just changed our caravan for a 560/4 coachman amara awning size is 1010 will the 975 to 1000 still fit the van or be much too small. Thanks

It is probably 10cm, i.e. 4 inches, too short, or 2 inches at each side.

I'd be inclined to try it out first, and if it doesn't look OK, consider getting it lengthened.

I have used tent valeting at Farnworth, near Bolton, so not too far from you.

They are doing a small alteration on an Isabella awning for us at the moment, but I have no other connection with this firm.

thanks jim have used them in the past they are quite good . The coachman we have now says its a 985 but we have always found this awning long at the sides as its similar to dorema sizing 975-100 and we are at lower end of scale. So fingers crosse this might be ok . Tried looking on Isabella for the 560/4 but dosent give sizes for ours as its blank .Glossop said it will fit so hopefully they are right x

it may well fit ok on level ground. but consider if you are on sloping ground ,with the van level, you could end up with a large gap at one end.
