We will be leaving Iluka and moving on to stay at the Breakwater Holiday Park in Port Macquarie NSW from Thursday 27th August through till Tuesday 8th September. Again I will have the new Wind Buster awning lock installed and on display for all to see. I am carrying stock to still cater for online orders as well as for local sales if anyone wants to come around and buy directly from me.

🌪️ Got Wind? Show Us Your Awning Lock in Action! 🌪️

We all know that sudden gust of wind that sends every van owner running out and grabbing their thongs to roll the awning in before it gets ripped apart!

If you’re running an Awning Lock on your setup, we want to see how it holds up when the breeze picks up.

We’re running a competition right through August and September to showcase real vans in real Aussie conditions, and we want YOUR clips!

🏆 The Prizes
• 1st Place (Major Prize): 2 sets of Barrel Support Kits
• 2nd Place: 2 pairs of Tent Pole Bottom Anchors

📩 How to Enter
1️⃣ Grab a quick 10-to-30-second video of your Awning Lock doing its job when the wind kicks up.
2️⃣ Drop your video in the comments below.
3️⃣ Tell us where you’ve got the van setup!

Competition runs from 1st August through to 30th September. Always put safety first—if conditions get dangerously wild, roll that awning in!

Here is a sample of all you need to do. Audio is optional.

Set up in Swansea NSW

Awning Locks are for electric awnings too!! Both the Deluxe and Wind Buster versions are ideal for electric awnings especially when mated with the tent pole top mount ( listed in original accessories).

Bonus!!! For the next 15 sets of awning locks sold (any version) 4 carabiner type spring hooks will be included at no extra charge. These can be pretty handy items to have around the camp site.

All 3 versions of my Awning Locks (Standard, Deluxe and Wind Buster) have the primary function of locking the anti-flap bars to the barrel so they act as a single unit.Once that is achieved it allows you to get a full grip and tension of the awning fabric in 2 opposing directions. It is that feature which makes anti-flap bars work so much more effectively than just them alone.

Latest release!! A 3rd version of our original Awning Lock is now available. First there was the Standard then there came the Deluxe and now the most advanced of them all the Wind Buster. The Wind Buster has all the wind control and awning tightening features of the previous two but has streamlined the setup as well as the pull down process with less separate parts saving time and effort. Watch the full video attached to see all these new features.
