A roll-out awning annex turns the awning on your caravan into a full extra room. We measure your van and awning. Then our Melbourne factory in Ringwood makes the walls to fit.
Our best seller
It’s a set of walls that turns your roll-out awning into a room. The awning you already have is the roof. We add three canvas walls, an anti-flap kit and as many curved rafters as you want. We make each wall on its own, so you can put up one for shade or all three for a full room.
Tap how you usually camp.
The awning and a wall or two might be all you use.
A roll-out awning annex suits stays of a week to two months.
If you're staying longer than a month or two, or living on site, a full annex is the better fit. See full canvas annexes
How long are you staying?
A roll-out awning annex is our best seller. The awning you already have is the roof, and you can put up one wall or all three. Once you're used to it, it goes up in 30 to 45 minutes. It's also strong when it's fully set up.
A full annex has its own canvas roof and a full pole frame, and it doesn't use the roll-out awning at all. It takes 1 to 2 hours to set up and is the stronger of the two. It's built to stay up for months, sometimes for good.

Yes. We make every annex to order. It can suit any awning, any van and any common rail size on caravans and other RVs. At our Kilsyth facility we fit the rope track and brackets to your van, then measure the van and awning. We make the walls to those measurements in our Ringwood factory.
Yes. You have three options:
Mesh at the vent end so fumes can escape, and canvas at the other end.
Either all mesh, or about 90% mesh with canvas borders.
First, have the gas disconnected. Then bring the compliance paperwork when you order and sign our acknowledgement form.
We make walls for electric awnings too. They use a support and attachment system built for them.
Every standard annex includes an anti-flap kit, a draught skirt and storage bags. Tap a part to see what it does.

Options you can add
The walls attach to the anti-flap kit, and it seals the gap between the awning and the walls. With the walls off, it still holds the awning steady in strong wind.
Every standard annex includes one. Our setup video shows you how it goes on. Watch the video
It usually weighs 20 to 30kg. It comes in storage bags, and the biggest bags are about the size of a mini fridge.
We fit the rope track and brackets to your van at our Kilsyth facility.
Curved roof rafters are optional. They stop the awning sagging or pooling water, which can stretch the vinyl and damage your roof. You can add as many as you like.
We usually make floors from rubber mesh or Canvicon, a tarpaulin-like material. If you'd rather have something else, we can make one from any material you like. Park rules on floor matting differ, so check with the park when you book.
You can add another door, more windows, extra-large windows or an alfresco long wall. You choose where everything goes, and we go through the layout with you before we make anything.

Some other annex makers that claim “Australian Made” aren’t telling the full truth. Alpine Annexes builds your annex from start to finish, in Melbourne. That’s why we can offer so many options. Some annex makers use imported pre-made walls that are then cut down to fit your awning. This can limit the optionality they have with their layouts. Because all our products start as a roll of material, we can put whatever you want, wherever you want. And with over 11 decades of experience on our team, we know how to make your camping dream come to life.

If your fridge or gas vents are on the awning side, you can still have an annex. You have three options:
The walls attach to the anti-flap kit, and it seals the gap between the awning and the walls. With the walls off, it still holds the awning steady in strong wind.

You choose where everything goes, and we go through the layout with you before we make anything.
All our work comes with a 12-month warranty and lifetime user support. You can call us whenever you need help with your annex.
We fit the track and brackets and measure your van ourselves, so getting the fit right is our job.
If you measured your van yourself and it doesn't fit, send it back to us and we'll alter it. Depending on how big the changes are, there may be a charge, but a lot of the time there isn't.
If you'd like to see the finished annex on your van before you take it home, ask us for a test-fit.
