Has anyone tried using magnets to close the gap on porch awnings ? We've got a vango Kalari air awning but it sits right down the middle of the side window towards the front of the caravan and the supplied pole obviously doesn't bend to the shape of the window. We were wondering if using strong magnets above and below the window would work ? Any suggestions welcome.

If you heat up a spike (ie a rock peg) you can easily create the hole that you need in your awning. There’s an advantage in this method because it melts and seals the edge of the hole, which stops it fraying.
Similarly, patches and shapes can be created in acrylics, by cutting with a soldering iron.
