Aluminium arms and reinforced hinges form the structure behind your shade.

A USB lead is listed in the box; a power bank is not specified as included. Check the required power source before your trip.

The essentials on fitment, setup and looking after your awning.
The awning can be mounted on either side of the vehicle. Compatibility depends on your rack’s load capacity, mounting interface and available clearance. Before ordering, check that your rack can support the complete installed load and that the awning will clear your doors, tailgate and any rooftop accessories. If you are unsure, send OPENROAD your vehicle details, rack model and photos of your setup for a fitment check.
Yes. Once securely mounted to a suitable vehicle rack, the OPENROAD 180° Awning can remain open without support legs in calm conditions. It also features four integrated, adjustable pull-down legs that stay attached to the awning for convenient deployment. Use the legs and secure the guylines when additional stability is needed, following the setup instructions and published wind limits
A gap may remain between the awning and the vehicle. The clearance depends on your vehicle’s body shape, rack position and mounting brackets. The awning should not be treated as a watertight seal against the vehicle, and rain may enter through this gap. Before installation, check the mounting position and clearance while allowing the doors and tailgate to operate freely.
Yes. The awning features integrated LED strip lighting with adjustable brightness and three colour settings: white, warm white and amber. A USB power cord is included for connection to a compatible USB power source. Check the lighting system’s input requirements before connecting a power bank or other supply.
The published wind rating is 10 mph (approximately 16 km/h) when freestanding, or 25 mph (approximately 40 km/h) with support legs and guylines deployed. The Australian product page specifies a 3,000 mm waterproof rating for the canopy fabric. Keep the canopy positioned to shed water and prevent pooling. Pack the awning away if conditions deteriorate; these ratings should not be treated as a guarantee against storm damage.
