The ARB Altitude Side Awning Kit is a dedicated accessory engineered for owners of the ARB Altitude roof tent who demand greater comfort and protection in unpredictable outdoor conditions. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the Altitude tent platform, this kit delivers practical coverage at the tent entrance, making it easier to access your tent, change footwear, or organise gear—no matter the weather.
Adverse weather can quickly turn a simple tent entry into a challenge. The ARB Altitude Side Awning Kit creates a sheltered zone alongside your tent ladder, shielding you from rain as you climb in or out. It also enables you to keep tent windows open for airflow, even during heavy rain, helping to reduce condensation and maintain comfort inside the tent. This is especially valuable for extended expeditions or remote touring, where keeping gear dry and living spaces ventilated is critical.
This kit is ideal for:
Unlike generic awning solutions, this kit is tailored to the ARB Altitude tent, ensuring a precise fit and reliable performance. If you regularly camp in exposed environments or need to keep your tent entrance dry and accessible, this accessory offers a clear advantage.
The ARB Altitude Side Awning Kit includes:
While ARB’s reputation for robust construction is well established, specific details such as fabric material, colour, and weight are not published for this kit. The design prioritises ease of use and long-term reliability in demanding conditions.
Initial installation requires fitting the mounting brackets and reels to your ARB Altitude roof tent’s base shell. Once in place, the awning attaches or detaches quickly using the support rods. For travel, the awning can be packed away with the tent by removing the window rods, or stored separately in the supplied carry bag. No specialist tools are required, and the process is straightforward for most users familiar with roof tent accessories.

For expedition travellers and touring families, this means less time battling the elements and more time enjoying the outdoors with confidence in your setup.
