ALU-CAB 180° Shadow Awning – Left Hand Side
Compact 180° Shelter with Fast, Free-Standing Deployment
The ALU-CAB 180° Shadow Awning – Left Hand Side provides generous shelter with a simple unzip and swing-out design, creating a spacious shaded area along the side and rear of your vehicle in seconds.
Perfect for camping, touring and overland adventures, the 180° Shadow Awning gives you unrestricted access to the rear of your vehicle while offering reliable protection from both sun and rain. When it's time to move on, the awning folds away neatly into its durable protective cover, sitting compactly alongside your vehicle ready for your next journey.
Built with the same robust aluminium arms found on the renowned ALU-CAB 270° Shadow Awning, this awning delivers exceptional strength while remaining lightweight and easy to use.
Please Note: Vehicle-specific mounting brackets are not included and must be purchased separately.
Built to Handle the Elements
Manufactured from premium 315gsm aluminium-coated polyester fabric, the awning reflects heat while providing dependable weather protection. The fabric features a 600mm waterhead rating and is treated with an acrylic resin to help resist mould and fungal growth, making it ideal for year-round outdoor use.
For additional weather protection, an optional rain gutter is available to seal the gap between the awning and the rear of your vehicle, particularly useful on vehicles fitted with side-opening rear doors.
