Porch awning

Can anyone please tell me who now makes the newer porch awnings for Automotive Leisure. There are some lovely pictures on here of porch awnings taken at Stratford and other places with an oval name tag on the right hand side of the front but I can't read any of them! We have an NR/AL porch awning and I'm trying to source a couple of spare parts. NR sadly have gone completely out of business due to recent flooding. AL weren't much help - just said that the new part wouldn't fit the old awning - but I can always ask.

Managed to blow up the oval from one of my images, unfortunately it does not say who makes it

I seem to remember that someone at Stratford had a brand new porch awning that they were putting up for the first time. Not much help I know except to say that everyone who attended has had a photo of their van taken and they are all in the gallery.

Thanks Randa. I looked through all those photos. (Pleasant memories!) But I my computer couldn't bring the name up clearly. However, Nev, of course, supplied the details though unfortunately not the name of the company that makes the awning for AL. Never mind, as I said, I'll search on.

Mine is the new type bought cheap as an introductory offer when they first changed them, its tailored to post 2009 vans and has a little too much skirt for the pre 2009 lower rail vans but is usable.

Thinking about it I have seen no reference anywhere referring to the maker, not even on the storage bags.

It makes good sense from AL's point of view as you then have to buy from them instead of direct from the maker cutting out their mark up.

That's sad about NR awnings, they were very helpful when I needed repairs for my two AL/NR awnings, Unfortunately I had to circumvent AL as their customer care wasn't as attentive as NR.....
