How to Pick Out Replacement Trailer Roof Vent Lid
Question:
We have an old Wilderness camping trailer. Big hail in Kansas so need to get 4 vent covers. When I measure, I get 13 inches by 13 inches. When I measure the length of the metal rod down the center, I have a little over 14 inches. What vent covers should I buy?

In order to determine the correct roof vent, measure where the vent opens. The standard trailer roof vent opening is roughly 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" and have roof vents that measure 14" x 14".
To pick the correct cover, you will also need to know the type of hinge you need.
There is a 3 point hinge, such as the one on the Camco # CAM40153; a 4 point hinge as seen on the Camco # CAM40154; or a rolled metal continuous hinge like on the Ventline # BVD0449-A03; and universal hinge as shown on the MaxxAir # MA00-335001.
Basically the easiest way to select the correct replacement cover is to remove the existing cover and match the hinge and lift bracket to the photos on our site along with the dimensions. A link to all of the replacement vent covers is provided to match up with your cover.
If it is not clear which hinge style that you have, the MaxxAir above is a Universal Replacement Lid.
In the event that you don't find a lid you like, I also included a link to our main page for our complete 14 x 14-inch vent assemblies. These are offered in manual or powered lift and with or without fans. If you install a complete new vent you'll need an installation kit, either # 344270KITW for a metal or coated metal roof or kit # CAM25013 for a rubberized roof.
