Dorema Awning Adjustable Roof Support Pole

Add to wishlist

• Adjustable length options – Available in multiple length bands to match awnings with depths up to ~300 cm.

• Material choices: Steel, Aluminium (EasyGrip) or FibreTech Plus (Fibreglass) – Choose strength, weight-saving or touring-friendly variant.

• Clamp & hook style fittings – Quick clamp attaches to the awning frame tube, hook secures into base or floor plate for stability.

• Prevents sag and water pooling – By supporting the roof peak the pole ensures correct tension and improves drainage.

• Compatible with many Dorema awnings – Suitable for models such as Daytona 240, XL270, XL300 and other full-depth awnings.

This support pole is sold as one single unit (if you need to reinforce both sides of a large awning you might need two). It’s ideal for seasonal setups or whenever the roof of your awning shows signs of sagging. You’ll want to measure the required depth of your awning (check manufacturer size bands) and pick the correct adjustable range (e.g., up to 250 cm, 250–300 cm). Installation involves slipping the pole into its clamp on the frame tube, adjusting the length until the roof fabric is fitted in correct tension, and locking the clamp. It’s especially beneficial on heavier fabrics or larger awnings where strain is greater.

• One roof support pole in chosen material & adjustable length band

• Clamp head for attachment to existing frame poles

• Hook or base fitting for floor anchorage (where applicable)

• Adjustment locking mechanism to set correct height

• Matching secondary support pole (for double reinforcement)

• Storm/secure strap kit to pair with the pole for high-wind sites

• Additional pegging & guy-rope kit

• Roof lining or canopy over-wrap to enhance insulation or weather-protection

• Storage sleeve or carry-bag for pole during transit

• Will this support pole fit my awning?
  Yes — if your awning depth falls within one of the adjustable bands (e.g., up to 250 cm or 250–300 cm) and you match the material/diameter to your existing frame.

• How do I install it?
  Place the clamp head on the awning’s roof-frame tube, adjust the pole length to support the apex of the roof fabric, lock the mechanism and anchor the base hook or plate. Then retension the awning fabric and guy out for stability.

• What’s the difference between steel, aluminium and fibreglass versions?
  Steel offers maximum strength for long-term or seasonal use; aluminium is lighter for touring; fibreglass (FibreTech Plus) offers lightweight and corrosion-resistant performance — ideal for touring or coastal pitches.

• Does it help with water pooling?
  Yes — by supporting the roof and keeping the fabric tensioned the pole helps ensure water runs off correctly rather than pooling and stressing the fabric.

• Can I use more than one?
  Absolutely — using two poles (one each side) is recommended for larger awnings or more exposed pitches to balance roof support and improve stability.

• Is it suitable for exposed or coastal sites?
  Yes — particularly when paired with proper pegging, guying and where you’ve chosen the stronger material option (steel) for maximum resilience.

• How heavy is it and how to store it?
  Weight varies by material and length. The steel version is heavier but very sturdy; aluminium and fibreglass are lighter. Ensure you have storage space that keeps the pole in a straight position to prevent bending.

• Will it affect my warranty?
  No — using a genuine accessory support pole from the manufacturer or correct specification should not affect your awning warranty.

• When should I replace my roof support pole or add one?
  Replace or add one when you notice sagging of the roof, water pooling, fabric tension loss or heavy stress from longer/or heavier stays.

• How do I choose the correct length band?
  Measure the depth of your awning (from caravan side wall to front edge). Match this to the available adjustable range — e.g., “up to 250 cm” or “250-300 cm” — and select material/diameter that matches your frame spec.
