At Kinmel Campers, we help customers get the most from their campervans. Whether you travel for weekends or months at a time, small upgrades can make a huge difference. One of our most requested improvements is the Citroën Berlingo awning rail fitting — a smart and reliable way to expand your outdoor living space.
This week, we fitted a new awning rail for a Citroën Berlingo customer who wanted a clean, strong, and professional finish. The goal was to add function without affecting the van’s style. As always, our team worked with precision and care, ensuring every detail matched Kinmel Campers’ high standards.
Why an Awning Rail is a Must-Have for Campervans
An awning rail may seem small, but it transforms the way you use your campervan. A securely installed Citroën Berlingo awning rail lets you attach an awning, canopy, or drive-away tent. That simple addition creates a sheltered outdoor area that extends your space for cooking, relaxing, or dining.
It’s especially useful for the UK’s unpredictable weather. When the rain starts, your awning keeps you dry. When the sun shines, it provides instant shade. For many Berlingo owners, the rail is one of the most practical upgrades you can invest in.
At Kinmel Campers, we fit high-grade aluminium rails that look like a natural part of the vehicle. Each one is cut and fitted precisely to align with the Berlingo’s roofline. The design allows compatibility with roof racks or pop-tops, giving you flexibility without compromise.
Our Process: How We Fit the Awning Rail
Every Citroën Berlingo awning rail fitting starts with a detailed inspection. We first assess the van’s roof to decide the best position for the rail. Some Berlingo models already have grooves or mounting points, while others need a custom alignment to guarantee strength and symmetry.
We then clean and prepare the surface thoroughly. A clean surface is essential for a strong bond. Once ready, we apply professional-grade adhesive and secure the rail with stainless fixings where needed. The installation must be watertight and perfectly straight.
After fitting, our team checks every joint and edge to make sure it’s sealed and visually perfect. The final result is a Citroën Berlingo awning rail that’s tough, weatherproof, and looks factory-installed.
Why Choose a Professional Installation
Some van owners try to install awning rails themselves, but the difference in quality is clear. A professional installation ensures the rail is aligned, sealed, and durable. DIY jobs often lead to leaks, poor bonding, or paint damage.
At Kinmel Campers, every rail is installed using the correct adhesives and alignment tools. We guarantee clean edges and lasting results. When we fit a Citroën Berlingo awning rail, we make sure it performs perfectly — from the first trip to years down the line.
Professional installation also protects your camper’s value. Our careful methods prevent any drilling or bonding mistakes that could harm your paintwork or lead to corrosion.
Workshop Example: Supplying and Fitting a Citroën Berlingo Awning Rail
The Berlingo featured here came to our workshop for a new awning rail. The customer wanted a neat finish and quick setup for future camping trips. We supplied and fitted a matching aluminium rail, following the vehicle’s contours closely.
Once the work was complete, the Citroën Berlingo awning rail looked like it had always been part of the van. The clean, low-profile design blended perfectly with the body. Our sealant ensured no gaps, preventing water entry and protecting the roof for years ahead.
As with every project, we checked the work carefully before handing it over. The customer left ready for their next adventure — now with more comfort, convenience, and protection from the elements.
The Benefits of an Awning Rail for Your Citroën Berlingo
