Mount it your way
On a van, the slider door track is the anchor. Hook in at the top of the door opening and the awning shades the doorway you actually use.

How it attaches
Four steps, no tools. Every AirHaven ships with the hardware below.
Close both strut clamp valves (slide the neoprene gloves off to reach them), or skip them: you can set up without the clamp valves. Pump to 8 PSI with a high-volume pump and a gauge. Max pressure is 8 PSI. Never go over it. If a Gen 4 HR valve sticks or leaks, open and close it a few times to get it working as designed.
Open the slider and set the Standard Top Mount flat hooks into the top track or the lip of the door opening. They ship clipped to the awning's daisy chain, and you can move them to other spots on it for versatility.
Seat the flat hooks at the seam where the body meets the chassis and cinch the straps tight. The struts ride on these straps.
If you closed the strut valves, open them and the canopy lifts into place, braced against the side of the vehicle on soft pads. Adjust strap tension to tune the pitch.
In the box
Top · edges and channels
Rubber-coated flat hooks for slider-door tracks, ledges, gutters, lips, slots, channels and eyelets. They ship clipped to the awning's daisy chain, and you can move them to other spots on it for versatility.
Bottom · every setup
Flat hooks seat at the seam where the body meets the chassis. The struts slide on the tensioned straps and rest on soft pads against the vehicle.
Tip: Both top mounts ship attached to the awning. Remove the ones you're not using and stow them in the awning bag's pocket.
Once you know your anchor points, skip the inflate-first routine. Hang the awning flat, then fill it right where it hangs with an electric pump.
Max 8 PSI. Never inflate past 8 PSI. Use a pump with a gauge, and set the shut-off to 8 if your pump has one.
Pumps that work →In the field
FlexMount anchors bond to the vehicle with 3M VHB and give the awning a D-ring to clip to. Semi-permanent, no drilling.
