Poles for Rollout Walls

Are you talking about a rollout awning with zip on walls?

Curved rafters are available that clip on or fit via mounting brackets (into the van wall). They are called 'de-flappers'. They also help to stop water pooling.

Both the vertical poles & the horizontal stays are attached to the roller via drilling a hole into the actual roller to take the spigot on the end of the poles & stays. The length of the roll out is usualy less than the length of the actual roller and therefore the position you need to drill the holes should be away from any internal mechanism.

G'day sandk, it sounds like is an "Anti Flap Kit" not to be confused with awning Deflappers which are little clamps with a velcro strap, the anti flap kit is an aluminium extrusion wich is in two parts which slide into each other and adjust out to suit the length of your awning, anyway, it has a sail track edge on the bottom to attach your walls and a long flap / clamp on the top which sandwiches the end of the awning to stop it from flapping, it also gives the awning added stability, they attach to you van by screwing or pop riveting a roof rail bracket just below the edge of the awning, you will also have to drill a hole in the drum, this is for the spigot end, again just below the end of the awning, don't worry about damaging the spindle as you are just drilling through the the wall of the drum, they come in 3 lengths to suit different awnings and cost around $320.00 for the kit.
