The
Coil n' Wrap® Awning Lock will prevent both the canopy
from unrolling and the arms from coming open as
you travel down the road.
The
#1 cause of insurance claims on RV's is awning damage.
This is caused by the failure of the awning roller
tube locking mechanism. Often this is due to vibration,
wind or operator error. According to FMCA, wind
will always win out over the friction lock that
awnings employ.
Don't
let this happen to you!
