SHADEPLUS RV Awning Sun Shade Screen 8'x17'3" — Black Mesh, Heavy-Duty Zippered Privacy & Wind-Resistant Kit

SHADEPLUS RV Awning Sun Shade Screen 8'x17'3" is a heavy-duty black mesh panel with an industrial zipper and full kit that adds shade, privacy, and wind-resistant screening to an 18-foot RV awning in minutes.

If you want to turn your RV awning into a sheltered, private outdoor room without permanent modifications, this 8' x 17'3" shade screen is built to fit most 18' awning setups. Constructed from 7.9 oz UV-resistant mesh, the panel reduces visibility from outside while preserving outward views, and the reinforced zipper system is engineered to resist grit and heavy wind loads. The package includes everything needed for a fast installation so you can deploy or stow the screen quickly when arriving at or leaving a campsite.

How does the zipper system hold up in wind and dirt?

The SHADEPLUS zipper system uses wider, reinforced interlocking teeth and heavy-duty materials to prevent separation under wind pressure. It’s designed to resist jamming from sand and grit so it continues to zip smoothly trip after trip.

• Industrial-grade tensile strength zippers for reliable locking
• Widened teeth reduce the chance of separation in gusts
• Reinforced design resists dirt- and sand-related jamming

Will the mesh give privacy while still allowing views and airflow?

The mesh features small 0.4mm x 0.8mm openings that block clear views into your awning space while still permitting light and airflow. From inside you can see outward scenery, but the small hole size greatly reduces visibility from outside, helping preserve privacy without creating a closed, stuffy feel.

• Small mesh holes for privacy with outward visibility
• Permeable fabric maintains ventilation and reduces heat buildup
• Black color enhances shade and reduces glare

What materials and dimensions should I expect for installation?

The screen is made from durable 7.9 oz UV-resistant mesh fabric and sized at 8 feet tall by 17 feet 3 inches long, intended to fit an 18' awning. It includes 3/16" poly cord compatible with most awning rollers plus bungee balls and iron stakes for securing the lower edge.

• Fabric: 7.9 oz UV-resistant outdoor mesh
• Actual panel size: 8' height × 17'3" length (fits 18' awnings)
• Includes 3/16" poly cord, bungee balls, and iron stakes

How fast and simple is the setup at camp?

Installation is designed to be quick and tool-free for most users: slide the included poly cord into the awning roller tube, then secure the bottom with bungee balls and stakes. Typical setup takes about 2–3 minutes, making it practical for short stops or frequent moves.

• Slide poly cord into the roller tube—no drilling required
• Secure lower edge with bungee balls and iron stakes
• Packable and easy to stow inside the awning when not needed
