Standard, high roof or slim canopy: which do I need?

In short

Choose by the height of your connection point: standard for about 1.7m to 2.1m, high roof for about 2.4m to 2.7m. The slim canopy is for connecting to the back of a car or 4x4. Classic and AIR canopies aren't interchangeable.

Classic and AIR canopies are different

Poled Glawnings need Classic canopies and GlawningAIRs need AIR canopies. They aren't interchangeable.

Standard height canopy

  • Attaches to the vehicle at an adjustable height of about 1.7m to 2.1m.
  • 2.4m of bead along the vehicle edge.
  • About 1.3m between the van and the tent door.
  • Fits all Glawnings from 2024 onwards. For older models, contact us, as we still have some older canopies in stock.

High roof canopy

  • The same as the standard canopy, but attaches at about 2.4m to 2.7m.
  • Fits all Glawnings from 2024 onwards. For older models, contact us.

Slim canopy (GlawningAIR only)

  • The same as the standard canopy, but with a shorter bead so it fits the narrower rear of a car or 4x4.
  • Fits all GlawningAIRs.

Changing vehicle?

Just swap the canopy. With a canopy pole set, your old canopy also works as a porch.
