Magne Screen Awning Drop Shade for RVs

Introduction

Over the past four years that we've been traveling full-time in our motorhome, we've looked for ways to enhance our space both inside and outside. On more than one occasion, I've noticed and admired RVs with drop shades providing them with more privacy and ensuring shade on their patio side. When I've asked my husband about buying one of these, he's always told me they won't work or are dangerous for us to use with the auto-retracting awning on our Entegra Coach.

The Magne Screen Awning Drop Shade is the perfect solution! It provides the shade and privacy I want, and it doesn't interfere with the operation of our awning, which addresses my husband's objection. I call this a win-win!

The Magne Screen Awning Shade for RVs is an exclusive new product that works with box-type automatic retractable awnings.

Let's face it! We've all either seen or heard stories about the destruction of an awning that someone forgot to put in before a big storm or windy day. It's one of the reasons that we love our awning. The auto-retract feature helps ensure we won't be the subject of such a story. The problem has been these awnings don't work well with after-market drop shades. Magne Screen changes this dynamic as it becomes the first and only drop shade to work with box-type automatic retractable awnings.

How does the Magne Screen Awning Drop Shade work?

The patent-pending design for the Magne Screen Awning Drop Shade design allows for easy installation with magnets attached to the outside of your existing awning. Using a telescoping installation rod to connect these magnets with the ones sewn into the Magne Screen's fabric secures the shade. Tethers on each end of the screen must be attached to a suitable anchor in or on the ground. If the RV awning begins to retract automatically, Magne Screen simply separates from the awning and falls to the ground, ensuring the complete function of your RV awning system.

The Magne Screen Awning Shade is ideal for RVers because it allows you to enjoy more of your outdoor space!

One of the compromises of living full-time in under 400 square feet in our motorhome is having the opportunity to spend time outside. I don't think of having a tiny living space if I have a giant outdoor living room. But if that living room can only be used for an hour in the morning because of the sun, I feel like I'm missing out!

Magne Screen transforms your RV patio area, protects you from the sun's harsh rays, prevents sun glare on outdoor TVs, computers, and other objects, provides a little more privacy, and delivers a cool oasis to relax in. Unlike screen rooms or canopies that aren't allowed in many parks, the Magne Screen is easy to use anywhere without breaking the rules.

Adding shade to the outside of your RV also reduces the heat inside your RV, allowing air conditioners to perform more efficiently. And while it won't eliminate bugs, it does help cut down on them!

Hunckler Fabrications uses the highest quality materials throughout the production of the Magne Screen.

The Magne Screen Drop Shade is made using 70% UV-blocking nylon, which means you can enjoy your RV patio on sunny days without getting sunburned. It makes seeing the outdoor TV easier and allows me to use the patio as my outdoor office without having to turn the screen brightness up super bright, straining my eyes.

This innovative material also provides added strength and durability to protect against wear and tear. Magne Screen is made in the USA and can be ordered in two different drop lengths -- 70" or 80".

No holes to drill, and no ladder is needed to hang it!

How many times do you think you find a great product to make life on the road better, only to realize that to use it, you are required to drill holes, potentially compromising its integrity? The Magne Screen Awning Shade is a non-invasive (no holes or invasive attachment method) product that comes with grommets and cordage to tie it down with a suitable anchor.

If you're still concerned about the screen interfering with the mechanics of your retractable awning, take note that shades are fabricated six inches smaller than the awning size to allow plenty of room on each side of your awning.

Light in weight, the screen is easy for one person to install from the ground, without a ladder, using the telescoping installation rod included with your purchase. Likewise, it is easy to roll up and store in the provided storage bag. (We roll ours around a pool noodle.)

The Magne Screen can be built to work with roll-out / keder rail awnings using a two-piece magnetic extension. The two-piece version of the Magne Screen RV Awning Drop Shade is compatible with most RV roller awnings.

Conclusion

There aren't a lot of RV products that I can honestly say have enhanced the quality of our life. Sure, they may have made it a little more comfortable, but did it enhance our life? Magne Shade products enhanced life for us! We've been big fans of our Magne Shade window covers since we got them three and a half years ago. When Magne Shade introduced the Magne Screen Drop Shade, we were excited to add one to the arsenal of things that make spending time outside our motorhome more enjoyable!

At long last, there is a drop shade for RVs that works with our box-type automatic retractable awning from a company whose five-star reputation for quality and excellent customer service is second to none. Now instead of wondering if we will be able to put up our screen room, I imagine all of the time I will be able to spend outside enjoying the fresh air and our RV patio area!

You can order online, but if you have a roller-type RV awning, you must call their office to order. Don't wait! Production time is 6-7 weeks, and summer is just around the corner!
