Title: A&E Trim Line Awning - Need Ground Poles
Post by: barracuda3443 on Apr 25, 2006, 06:01 PM
Took my PU out for the first time this past weekend & a sudden gust of wind took the awning & threw it over the PU, bending the ground support poles.  The awning & support poles that connect to the PU are fine.  I don't want to have to pay for a complete new setup, but I can't find just the ground poles anywhere.

Any ideas?
TIA

I too have the Trim-Line awning and just a thought, maybe HD, Lowes or a metal supply business might have an metal alloy pole similiar in design and weight that could be used as a replacement.  These awnings are not made to handle any wind.. We have yet to use ours and when we do I have bought devices to tie them down..  Just need to come up with a device for a cement pad..
