The Freedom Awnings are state of the art lateral arm awnings. When retracted, the housing provides
protection against the elements while the streamlined styling blends in with the coach sidewall. The full
tension canopy fabric allows the awning to be partially or fully extended for best shade coverage.
Each unit is equipped with lateral support arms. No vertical arms interfere with coach sidewalls, custom
graphics or equipment that may be mounted on the sidewalls.
Freedom Awning Specifications:
Fully retractable and self-storing;
Available as manual or motorized (Note: 4.5 & 5 meter only available as motorized);
The sealed awning motor operates on standard 12VDC (range 10VDC to 14VDC);
Case and frame are constructed of high-strength aluminum extrusions, protected with a polyester paint finish;
