Will It Fit My Vehicle?
Three things decide it. If you can tick all three, the TT-A1 will mount to your vehicle.
Any standard crossbar set or full roof rack. The two stainless L-brackets in the box do the rest.
Measure to the top of your bars. Above roughly 2.1m the legs won't reach the ground properly.
You need at least as much usable bar as the size you pick.
Still unsure? Measure the usable length of your roof bars and message us.
Built To Be Used, Not Babied
Reasons an awning gets used every trip instead of left in the garage.
Weather You Can Actually Sit Under
600D ripstop polyester with a waterproof coating, pulled tight across aluminium arms. Tensioned fabric sheds rain instead of pooling it.
Guy ropes and pegs come in the box, not as an upsell.
600D Ripstop · Waterproof
Nothing Loose. Nothing To Assemble.
The arms fold out of the case and the vertical legs are already attached — they telescope down and lock. No bag of poles, no diagram.
Integrated Locking Legs
Fits What You Already Drive
Two load bars or a roof rack is the whole requirement. Two stainless steel L-brackets, fixings and a spanner are included.
Vans, cars, 4x4s, pickups and trailers up to roughly 2.1m tall.
2x Bars Or A Rack
It Grows With How You Camp
Add a single side wall, an extension kit that doubles the shade, a fully enclosed room, or the Angel Wing alcove.
All of it fits this same awning.

Versus The Pop-Up Gazebo In Your Boot
Most people shopping for a side awning already own a gazebo. Here's where the difference actually shows up.
| TT-A1 Side Awning | Pop-Up Gazebo | |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | About a minute, one person, from standing | Two people, several minutes, plus pegging |
| Storage | Stays on the roof. Zero boot space. | A large bag taking up the boot on every trip |
| In wind | Legs lock, arms fixed to the vehicle, guy ropes included | Freestanding — prone to lifting if not weighted |
| Attached to | Your roof bars, so it's always with you | Nothing — remember it, load it, unload it |
| Doubles as | Cover over the side door and tailgate | A standalone square away from the vehicle |
