It is generally recommended to secure your awning, even on a calm day, to prevent it from being damaged or blown away in the event of unexpected wind gusts. Awnings can be heavy and bulky, making them susceptible to damage from wind if they are not properly secured. Additionally, if an awning is not secured and it becomes loose or detached, it can be a hazard to people and property. To secure your awning, you can use ropes, pegs, or other anchoring devices to hold it in place.
While most awnings have some sort of breakpoint designed to give way and protect the more expensive parts of the awning itself, any breakage can ruin your day out. A few minutes spent using the supplied pegs and guy ropes can save money and hassle later.
Consult the manufacturer's instructions for specific guidance on how to properly secure your awning
