$161

Caravan awnings are great, but are you getting the most use out of yours?
The privacy screen revolution has seen this simple product become one of the most popular caravan accessories available today. Inexpensive and long lasting, they are a great addition to any caravan awning.
Gone are the days of needing a bulky, expensive and hard to set up annexe. Privacy screens are compact, lightweight and quick to set up. They can supply protection from the weather without imposing an enclosed feeling like a solid annexe. The advantage of screens is they can increase your comfort level in all conditions - they reduce windy gusts in bad weather, provide shade with air flow on hot days and even restrict rain access.
As the name suggests, privacy screens are ideal for use in more crowded locations. Reclaiming your outdoor space can double your living area and enable a more relaxed feel. The shade screens provide a personal barrier without completely blocking off the great outdoors.
Due to the different size mounting channels in roll-out and box awnings, there are two main styles of screens available and they are not interchangeable. Roll-out awnings like Carefree or Dometic require a screen with a larger diameter spline than box awnings like Fiamma.
Made to suit awnings from 10 to 19 ft long. They have a rope sewn into the edge which slides into a track on your awning. They have eyelets or d-rings on the bottom edge which get pegged to the ground. The walls are made of a shade cloth with 90-95% shade depending on the brand.
We list both the physical size of the screen and the awning length they suit. The physical screen size will always be a foot shorter than the awning size. Smaller screens can be fitted to larger awnings, they just will not span the entire length.
When selecting a screen length you need to make sure you have measured your awning correctly. Awning size is measured between the centre of the legs, not the awning fabric.
Due to the popularity of privacy screens, the market has been flooded with a huge selection of different brands for the same product. With this in mind we have purposely limited our range so not to duplicate styles and simplify choice.
CGear are the original and considered the premium brand, Coast versions include pegs and ties with a reduced price, and Supex provides a black option at an even cheaper price point.
When selecting an end wall screen there are two main screen styles:
Both styles have velcro straps to attach the screen to the awning brace. Some of the caravan or sloped versions also incorporate a rope spline which can be used in conjunction with a roof brace like the Aussie Traveller Anti-flap kits.
Due to the colour variations between suppliers, if purchasing side and end screens we recommend sticking to the same brand.
By adding waterproof walls all the way around your awning you can make a fully enclosed annexe. These are pre-made to fit the standard length roll-out awnings and can suit a range of roof heights. They include windows with flyscreens and a door.
To suit awnings from 2.5 to 4 metres long. They have a rope sewn into the edge which slides into a track on your awning. They have eyelets on the bottom edge which get pegged to the ground. The walls are made of a shade cloth with 90-95% shade.
There is only one type of wall available and this comes as a kit with brackets and a rafter to attach the wall to. The wall is made of vinyl rather than shade cloth and has a large built-in window.
By adding waterproof walls all the way around your awning you can make a fully enclosed annexe. Fiamma call these a Privacy Room. They are pre-made to fit the standard lengths with a couple of roof heights, and a folding flap at the base to cover additional heights. They include windows and a door.
Not usually. The spline size is different between most roll-out awnings and box or cassette awnings. Check the track size and match the screen style to the awning brand before ordering. If your track measures around 8 mm, do not assume a roll-out awning screen will slide in cleanly.
Some off-road caravans and higher vans sit taller than standard, so a common 1800 mm drop may leave more gap than expected. Check the product's listed drop height and measure from the awning track to the ground at your normal camp setup height before ordering.
The triangle gap is created by the slope and angle of the awning roof. Standard side and front screens do not always close that shape completely, so check whether the brand you are buying offers a matching infill, rafter, or end-wall solution for your awning style.
No. Fridge shade screens are a smaller shade product for fridge vents and are not the same as awning privacy screens. They are normally found with fridge accessories rather than awning walls.
No. Annexe walls and privacy rooms need to match the awning type, length, roof height and fitting method. Fiamma Caravanstore, Fiamma F45, Dometic, Carefree and Aussie Traveller awnings can use different parts, so identify the awning model first and then choose walls made for that system.
