VWD Universal Fit Van Awning Bunk Window 40" x 18" (BAWS001)
Introducing the innovative VWD Universal Fit Van Awning Bunk Window 40" x 18" (BAWS001). Experience unparalleled viewability, ventilation, convenience, and security with this Single Awning Window.
Viewing ability is paramount, and the VWD Awning Series boasts the largest viewing area among all vented styles of windows. With only a minimalistic frame surrounding the awning glass, you'll enjoy unmatched panoramic views from this opening window. Its clear central glass offers reliable performance and a truly expansive perspective.
Ventilation has never been better with the Single Awning Window. Combining the advantages of sliding and awning windows, this revolutionary design tilts out 70°, rivaling some sliders in terms of airflow. Embrace the convenience of a slider with unobstructed openings, while benefiting from the tilting feature that provides excellent ventilation even during rain.
Convenience takes center stage with the VWD Awning Window. Unlike other awning windows that are not recommended to open while driving or sliding windows that usually stay shut during rain, this window features heavy-duty pistons with locking knobs. This means you can securely open the vent a few inches, lock the pistons, and enjoy fresh air while on the road, no matter the weather conditions.
The functionality of VWD Single Awning Window extends to the interior as well. Discover an accordion-style screen neatly integrated into the frame, allowing you to easily adjust the window to your desired location using the two locking levers. Pull down the screen and relish in a spacious, screened opening, perfect for camping, road tripping, or simply enjoying the outdoors.
Security is of utmost importance, and VWD takes it seriously. Their windows are designed with two levers that swing and lock down on both bottom corners when closed. The release button enables easy access, and when the window is opened, the hydraulic pistons feature locking knobs for an additional layer of protection. Even in areas where extra security is essential, you can slightly open the awning glass and lock the piston knobs, making it incredibly difficult for anyone to utilize the opening as an entry point.
In Summary
Experience the perfect blend of exceptional viewability, ventilation, convenience, and security with the VWD Universal Fit Van Awning Bunk Window 40" x 18" (BAWS001). Elevate your van experience and embark on unforgettable journeys with confidence. Order your VWD Single Awning Window today and take your van adventures to new heights.

Do Campervan HQ van windows come with instructions?
Most van windows are sold for DIY van builders and may not include manufacturer instructions because many manufacturers assume installation by someone familiar with van window installation. Check the Campervan HQ van window installation blog for guidance. For CR Laurence van windows, you can also search YouTube for CR Laurence window install videos.
Do van windows require adhesive and primer?
This is a bonded or glue-in van window. Bonded windows require urethane adhesive and primer unless a primerless adhesive is specified. The primer prepares the glass and steel surfaces, and the adhesive fastens the window to the van while sealing out moisture. You still need an existing opening, so cargo vans without windows require the correct cutout before installation.
Do Campervan HQ van windows ship for free?
Most van windows do not ship free because large windows often require truck freight or special handling. When available, warehouse pickup can reduce or refund shipping costs. For large multi-item orders, contact Campervan HQ for an individual quote.
What should I check when a van window is delivered?
Inspect the window shipment before the delivery driver leaves. If there is damage, have the driver note it on the Bill of Lading and provide a signed copy. Without signed damage notation at delivery, Campervan HQ may not be able to make a shipping damage claim.
What is the return process for damaged or defective van windows?
For delivery damage, Campervan HQ needs a signed Bill of Lading showing the damage and photos of the damage. For a defective van window, Campervan HQ needs photos of the defect and will request a Return Authorization. In either case, re-package the window in the original box and tape the invoice number or return authorization number to the outside of the box.
