Hi, I’ve got a caravan store pull out canopy, thinking of changing to a sun camp swift coping 325 deluxe porch awning with rear upright pads.
Any info, would this fit ok, any good.
Can't you simply measure the awning rail at roof height for it's straight run length?
So long as it's 3.25 metres (the width of the awning) or more you should be OK.
One thing that bothers some people but not others (I'm not bothered) is if the awning wall crosses a window (I think it will!), people get concerned about scratches on the window from chaffing (wipe the window and awning edge free of dirt first and it's a much reduced risk - no marks on mine!), not being able to open that window, and drafts through the gaps it leaves (it's an awning for goodness sake - it flaps and bellows in the wind, and 'drafts' come in wherever there is a 'interface' between ground or van and awning anyway!) It's a lightweight awning, you wouldn't be using it in a gale anyway (well, not for long if you left it up, not robust enough!), so any 'drafts' are pretty minimal.
If the window thing bothers you, look at one of the smaller versions that may clear the window.
