hi mike it is fitted by sowing five bits of guide rope to the suncanapy so it can be fasend to the roof bars and two guide ropes on the end fasend to the legs

Looks great

Looks very smart indeed

Where did you get the canopy from? Most of the caravan sun canopies I've seen are huge things that are little different to full awnings.

hi all the suncanapy is a dorema monaco they come in all size you can get them from awning land for about 99£ tony

Thanks for that togg1774 - I fancy doing this on mine as very often we just want something to shelter bits and pieces left outside if there's a shower (or get some shelter from the sun should that ever be a problem again).

I got myself horribly confused with measurements as the smalest one advertised is 6.6 - 7 metres and yours is clearly around 4 metres wide. Then I saw that the largest is 9.8 - 10.2 metres and there aren't many caravan that long so I assume this is the entire length of the awning rail.

Do you know what size number yours is? They seem to go from [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

hi my suncanapy is a size 4 to fit a 12foot caravan awning rail 740 - 780 this is from ground level to ground level hope this helps tony

This is how they measure caravan awnings. Not sure how that applies to sun canopies though.

If you have an awning you could get the sides zippered to form a canopy.

It looks like the same principle is applied for the sun canopies too navver.

With the Destiny, I'd have the option of fitting a section of awning rail or tying on like togg1774 has.

The zips in the awning is an option but I fancy something really quick and simple to attach also.

This looks great..
Any idea which size would fit the Dandy Designer ?

Thanks in advance  

I'll measure my designer roof line next week if that's of any use to you

Thanks...
They look good Canopy's don't they..
Much lighter than the PVC ones.. 

Has anyone tried to fix a canvas canopy from a folding camper ?
Must be worth a try....

My Designer sun canopy measures 148 inches ....... sorry it's taken a while.
