Can't hold the awning roof properly with your anti-flap bars! Awning Locks fix that at the barrel end. But what about the top end near the van?

Video of Deluxe vs Wind Buster version of awning locks and then the Wind Buster installed at Port Macquarie

05/09/2026

We have really enjoyed our stay here at Breakwall van park in Port Macquarie. Have met a lot of really great people as usual and by chance ran into Jeanette and Graham who had bought my Deluxe awning locks 12 months ago while staying at a different park. Their van is their home and they said that they have always used the Awning Locks continuously since buying them. I showed them my latest version the Wind Buster and straight away without hesitation they upgraded to them. Thank you Jeanette and Graham for continuing to trust my product and I look forward to hopefully meeting up again in another park in both our travells.

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
