The Darche 270 Freestanding LED Awning (Left) – T050801740 combines expansive wraparound shelter with integrated lighting, creating the ultimate camp setup. Its 270° design provides 11.5 m² of coverage to the left side and rear of your vehicle, perfect for cooking, gear organisation, or relaxing out of the elements.
Built tough with 320 gsm ripstop polycotton canvas, the awning is rated UPF 50+ and treated with a 3000 mm waterhead for all-weather performance. X-tube aluminium rafters, reinforced hinges, and a heavy-duty backing plate provide strength and stability, while the freestanding design has been wind-tested to hold in speeds up to 30 km/h.
Integrated dual-colour dimmable LED lighting (white and amber) runs through each arm, while 8 mm sailtrack channels allow you to attach accessories. The awning packs away into a durable PVC transit bag, ready for the next leg of your journey.
