Why this product

Why the Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m?

Some RVs just do not have the sidewall space for a traditional awning mount. The Freedom Roof Mount solves that by attaching to the roof instead. At 3 meters it is compact enough for smaller rigs or van conversions while still giving you meaningful shade. A great option when wall mounting is not feasible.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m fits most RV types including standard RVs. Check mounting requirements against your rig. Use our compatibility checker below for confirmation.

The Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m carries up to 200 lbs. That's the carrier's rating—your bumper or hitch has its own limit too. Use whichever number is lower. Overloading bends bumpers and voids warranties. Weigh your gear, don't guess.

Yes. Budget 20 minutes and basic hand tools. The Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m bolts to your bumper or slides into your hitch receiver. One person can do it, but a second pair of hands makes alignment easier. Instructions included.

Possibly. The Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m extends behind your RV and may obscure your plate depending on mounting height and cargo size. Most states require a visible, illuminated plate at all times. Relocate your plate or add a plate bracket if blocked. Details in our legal guide.

The Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m is built from fabric. Apply a rust-inhibitor spray twice a year if you drive in salt-belt states. Rinse after winter trips. Store indoors when not in use to maximize lifespan.

The Carefree Freedom Roof Mount Awning 3m does not fold. You'll need to remove it when not carrying gear, which takes 15 minutes. Store it in your garage between trips.

Adding 60.00 lbs of carrier plus your cargo weight behind the rear axle shifts your RV's center of gravity. Keep loads under the rated limit and distribute weight evenly. You'll notice slightly longer stopping distances. Take corners slower than usual until you're used to the extra rear weight.
