PEUGEOT PARTNER 2018 – AWNINGS & AWNING RAILS

Maximize your living space and get ready for the ultimate weekend getaway with your 2018-Onwards Peugeot Partner!

The latest generation Peugeot Partner is a highly sophisticated, car-like vehicle that has completely redefined what is possible in the micro-camper and day van scene. Packed with modern tech and efficient layouts, it makes an incredible basecamp for solo travelers and adventure duos alike. However, when you're touring in a compact van, interior real estate fills up fast once your sleeping setup and gear are on board. Fitting a premium awning is the ultimate lifestyle upgrade, instantly creating a spacious outdoor zone. At Vanstyle, we stock top-tier awnings and rail configurations designed to pair beautifully with your vehicle's modern profile.

An exterior awning room is an absolute must-have space-saving solution, immediately providing a fully enclosed, private area for dining, cooking, or changing without encroaching on your cozy sleeping space inside the Partner. Our premium range from market leaders like Dometic offers versatile sizing, meaning you can easily select a footprint that aligns perfectly with your specific camping style. Before pitching up, establishing a solid anchor point is key. A dedicated awning rail or a sleek multi-rail mounts cleanly along your roof track, giving you a rock-solid foundation to either slide in a massive drive-away tent or mount a rapid wind-out canopy.

Drive-away awnings are incredibly convenient, featuring an integrated connecting tunnel section that wraps snugly over the side sliding loading door of your Partner. This layout creates a fully weather- protected walkway, keeping the howling wind and rain out while you move gear or supplies back and forth. Much like a traditional ground tent, these systems rely on high- visibility guy ropes pegged down firmly to keep the fabric perfectly taut and prevent the structure from moving during breezy coastal nights.

If you want to completely eliminate arrival stress at the campsite, modern air awnings are a phenomenal alternative to old-school pole structures. By replacing heavy, awkward steel or fiberglass frames with robust, inflatable air tubes, pitching up becomes an effortless, one-person job that takes only a few minutes. Not only does this save valuable weight in your Partner's payload, but it also completely removes the risk of a loose metal pole slipping out of your hands and scratching your van's pristine paintwork during a sudden gust of wind.

For quick day-tripping, spontaneous road trips, or roadside lunch stops, a fixed wind-out awning provides unparalleled convenience. Once fitted securely using technical brackets on your Partner's roofline, the compact casing sits neatly out of the way until needed, winding out to provide overhead shade or rain protection in under two minutes. Because it lives permanently on the side of your van, there is zero risk of turning up to the campsite and realizing your shelter is still sitting back in the garage at home!

FAQ:

Q: Can I fit a wind-out awning and an awning tent at the same time?
A: Because a compact vehicle like the modern Peugeot Partner has a finite amount of space along the roofline, these two systems generally compete for the identical mounting locations. We advise evaluating your usual camping habits to choose the single style that best fits your routine.

Q: What is the difference between an awning tent and a drive-away awning?
A: While both give you an enclosed living space, a drive-away awning stands entirely on its own. You can effortlessly unhook the connecting tunnel from your Partner, leave the tent pitched to lock down your spot on the campsite, and drive away to explore local attractions for the day without packing down your living area.

Q: What is a Kador?
A: A Kador strip is a tough, double- beaded fabric strip that acts as the vital connection link for drive-away setups. It threads smoothly into your van's awning rail on one side and attaches to the awning tunnel on the other, creating a waterproof seal. When you want to head off-site, you simply slide the Kador strip out to release the van, and slide it back in when you return to base.
