The Trigano Full Awning Sizing System Explained

Trigano full awnings follow a straightforward sizing system once you understand what the numbers and letters actually mean. Everything starts with your caravan’s A-measurement, which is the foundation for choosing the correct size and code.

Get this right and everything else falls into place. Get it wrong and you are into returns, poor fits, and flapping fabric in the wind.

Converting Your A-Measurement to a Trigano Size Code (E, F, G, J, etc.)

Once you know your A-measurement, Trigano converts that into a letter-based size code such as E, F, G, or J. Each letter represents a fixed band of measurements rather than one exact number.

This gives you a little tolerance, which is useful if your measurement sits right on the edge. It also explains why two caravans with slightly different rail lengths can sometimes use the same awning size.

Detailed Trigano Awning Size Code Chart Breakdown

Trigano size codes align closely with European sizing standards. For example, a mid-range caravan might fall into a G size, while larger body caravans move into J or above.

The key thing here is not to guess based on caravan length alone. The rail measurement is what matters, not the badge on the back.

Precise Manual A-Measurement for Trigano Compatibility

If you would rather not rely on charts alone, measuring it yourself is the safest option.
Use a flexible tape and physically follow the awning rail from ground to ground.
Do it on level ground with the caravan set up as you would use it on site, not tilted on the driveway.

This hands-on check removes almost all risk of ordering the wrong size.

Full Awning Models and Depths

Trigano caravan awnings offer full models in different depths to suit how you camp. Some people want maximum living space, while others prefer a lighter, quicker setup.

Both options work well, but the depth you choose will change how the awning feels on site.

Sizing for Popular Models (e.g., Ocean, Montreux)

Models like the Ocean and Montreux sit in Trigano’s more established touring range. They cover the most common size bands and work well with standard European caravans.

These awnings are designed to balance internal space with manageable weight, making them popular for regular touring.

Understanding the 2.5m vs. 3.0m Awning Depth Options

A 2.5m deep awning feels lighter and quicker to handle. It suits shorter stays and tighter pitches.

A 3.0m deep awning gives you noticeably more living space. It feels more like an extra room, which is ideal for longer trips or seasonal pitches.

Trigano Porch and Air Awning Sizing

Not everyone wants a full awning. Porch and air awnings are popular because they are faster to set up, easier to store, and more flexible for touring.

Trigano offers both traditional pole porch awnings and inflatable air models.

Sizing for Trigano Air Awnings and Motorhome Awnings

Trigano air awnings are sized primarily by connection height and rail length rather than by A-measurement alone. This makes them ideal for motorhomes as well as caravans.

Compact models suit campervans and smaller coachbuilt motorhomes, while larger air awnings are designed for full-size motorhomes needing serious outdoor space.

Importance of Connection Height (Low, Mid, High)

Connection height is one of the most common mistakes people make.
Low, mid, and high fitting ranges exist for a reason.

If your motorhome sits high and you buy a low-connection awning, you will struggle with tension and sealing. Matching the correct height range is just as important as matching the width.

Sizing Porch Awnings by Rail Straight Length

Porch awnings rely on the straight section of your awning rail rather than the full curve.
This means you need to physically check how much straight rail you actually have available.

Many people assume they have more usable rail than they do, especially on modern curved-body caravans. Measuring this section properly avoids porch awnings overlapping windows, doors, or vents.
