If you’ve ever wrestled with flimsy awning fabrics in the wind, or scrambled to swap out your shade screen the second a rainstorm hits, we feel your pain! Outfitting your caravan should make your outdoor space more comfortable, not more stressful.
While cheaper generic screens might save you a few bucks upfront, they often cost you in comfort, storage space, and durability. To help you make the best choice for your setup, we’ve put together this Q&A comparing standard generic screens to the game-changing Campsmart Dual Layer XD Caravan Screen.
Q: I’m tired of packing multiple screens for sun and rain. How does the Dual Layer XD solve this?
A: This is exactly why the Dual Layer XD was created! With generic screens, you are forced to choose: put up a mesh screen for shade, or a solid wall for rain. If the weather changes, you have to take one down and slide the other in.
The Dual Layer XD is a 2-in-1 system that features both a 90% UV black mesh layer AND a waterproof Oxford weave layer in one unit. You slide it into your awning track just once.
Sunny? Roll up the waterproof layer and let the mesh provide shade and airflow.
Raining? Drop the solid layer down for instant shelter.
Want total privacy? Drop both layers at night for an enclosed, annex-like feel.
Q: My off-road caravan sits pretty high, and my current generic screen leaves a frustrating gap at the bottom. Will this screen fix that?
A: Absolutely. Most cheaper generic screens have a standard drop length of 1.8 meters. Because modern and off-road RVs sit higher off the ground, that 1.8m length awkwardly hovers above the dirt, letting in wind, rain, and nosy campground neighbors.
The "XD" stands for Extra Drop. These screens feature a 1.95m drop, ensuring you can peg the screen flush to the ground to keep out the elements and create a properly sealed outdoor room.
Q: I’ve had cheaper screens tear at the eyelets during heavy winds. How durable is the Dual Layer XD?
A: Generic screens often cut corners on manufacturing with basic single stitching and flimsy eyelets that easily rip out when the wind picks up.
The Dual Layer XD is built tough for Australian conditions. It features double-stitched, hemmed edges and reinforced tabs that include both D-Rings and eyelets across the bottom. Plus, the UV mesh is fully tested and conforms to Australian Standards (AS4174:2018), meaning it won't crack or fade quickly in the harsh sun like unverified generic fabrics do.
Q: Storage space is incredibly tight in my van. Is this double-layer system going to be bulky?
A: Actually, it will save you space! Because a generic setup requires you to buy a mesh screen and a separate waterproof wall, you end up storing multiple bulky bags. The Dual Layer XD fits both protective layers into one single, compact carry bag. It frees up precious caravan weight and space, leaving you more room for the fun gear.
Q: Ultimately, is it really worth spending a bit more over a basic, cheap screen?
A: Yes. While a cheap screen looks good on the receipt, it means compromising on living space, weather protection, and durability. The Campsmart Dual Layer XD is a smart, space-saving investment. It simplifies your campsite setup, lightens your load, and guarantees you have a comfortable outdoor oasis—no matter what the forecast throws at you.
