How to Determine if Slide-Out Awning Will Fit

Question:

I have a 2020 Columbus 329dv 5th wheel which has 2 awnings. I want to add a slide awning or topper on living room slide 12 which has an awning mounted to the slide. The existing awnings are Lippert. Can the Lippert slide awning work on my configuration. I can send pictures.

Yes, you can use a Lippert/Solera slide-out awning such as the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning # LCV000165061, but in order to determine a fit there are a couple of measurements you'll need to take.

In order to determine the correct slide-out awning, what you'll do is simply measure flange-to-flange on your slide-out to get the correct length. For example, the # LCV000165061 is for slide-outs that measure between 146" - 151" wide from flange-to-flange. Also, you should have at least 7 inches of clearance on both sides of your slide-out box, but if you don't have that much, what you can do is simply order the next size down.

I have added a link to our entire selection of slide-out awnings, or if you let me know the flange-to-flange measurement and if you have the needed clearance, I would be happy to find the right fit for you.
