Drop the leg into the nylon foot. The magnetic base anchors it to the side of your van, or to any steel surface. No drilling, no spikes, no guy lines. Mounted in seconds.
Use it for: Anchor a Dometic awning to the side of the van instead of the ground, on gravel, rock or tarmac where stakes will not go in.
What it fits: Dometic awning systems, sold as a pair. 56 kg vertical and 17 kg lateral pull per magnet, any steel surface.
Shipping: Ships within 48 h. Free shipping from CHF150, £150, €250 or $299.
Anchor the awning. Not the ground.
An awning that is not anchored moves. The legs wander. The fabric flexes in the wind. The ground is the usual answer, and it rarely cooperates — gravel, rock and tarmac do not take a stake. So you fix it to the van. Three ways exist. One without a catch.
Ground stakes
Need soft ground. Gravel, rock and tarmac say no. Slow where you actually park.
Drilled bracket
Holes in the panel. Water in. Rust after. Resale value down. Permanent.
Vacuum mount
Re-pump every 2–3 hours. Worse when the panel is hot. The panel is hot when you want shade.
Tactic magnet
56 kg pull per magnet. No holes. No pump. Move the van, it comes with it.
What you get
Two magnetic feet
Sold as a pair — one magnet per foot, stainless hardware throughout.
Dometic awning systems
The awning leg drops straight into the nylon foot. Nothing to modify on the awning.
No drilling, no spikes
On in seconds, off in seconds. The van panel stays exactly as it left the factory.
Marine-grade, UV-stable
Fully encapsulated neodymium and UV-stable nylon. It lives outside; it is built for outside.
Specifications

Do I need to modify the awning?
