Why fire & ems choose Custom Printed RV Awnings
Maltese cross & Star of Life ready
Send your crest in any format — we redraw to vector if needed at no charge so the print is razor-sharp.
Flame-retardant ink option
Ask about our FR-treated canvas for rehab trailers, fire prevention week setups and station-side use.
Fundraiser & memorial pricing
Discounted pricing on awnings used for benevolent funds, line-of-duty memorials and community fundraisers.
Common use cases
How fire & ems actually use a printed awning — and what we typically print for each setup.
Rehab and medical trailers
Rehab units at working fires need shade fast and need to be identifiable through smoke and dark. High-contrast REHAB lettering with your department name reads from the far end of the block.
Fire prevention week and school visits
Prevention events are your most-photographed days of the year. Print the department shield, a mascot or Sparky-style character, and your safety message so every parent photo carries your branding.
EMS standby at events
Concerts, races and stadium standbys put your unit in front of thousands. A printed awning with MEDICAL or EMS in large type helps the public find you and helps event staff route people to the right rig.
Recruiting and explorer posts
Volunteer and explorer recruiting lives or dies on visibility. A 12–16 ft awning with your station photo, hiring line and QR code to the application makes a booth look like a department.
Parade and muster trailers
Muster and parade rigs get the ceremonial treatment — gold-leaf-style lettering, established date, and apparatus numbers rendered to look like traditional lettering but printed to survive weather.
Wildland and deployment base camps
Long deployments mean weeks of UV exposure and daily roll cycles. Fade-resistant inks and a marine-grade base keep the awning legible through a full season away from the station.

"The new rehab trailer awning shows our colors from a block away. Crews actually find us faster on big incidents."

Frequently asked questions
Can you print our Maltese cross and station number?+
Yes — send us your patch, station number, and any unit IDs. We'll lay out a digital proof for you to approve before printing.
Is the canvas flame-retardant?+
Standard canvas meets CPAI-84. We also offer NFPA 701 compliant material on request — let us know during checkout.
Do you offer pricing for volunteer departments?+
Yes. Volunteer and combination departments get volume pricing starting at the first unit. Mention your dept. when you request a proof.
Will it survive station-side use 24/7?+
Our 15 oz marine canvas with UV-stable inks is rated for 7+ years of outdoor use. Most departments retire the trailer before the awning fades.
How fast can I get my custom awning?+
You'll get a free digital proof within 1 business day of placing your order. Once you approve the proof, your awning prints, cures and ships in 10–14 business days. Need it sooner for an event? Ask about our rush program at checkout — we can usually compress to 5–7 business days for an extra fee.
How do I know what size awning to order?+
Measure the length of your existing awning roller tube (end cap to end cap) — that's your awning size. Most RV awnings are 8–21 ft. If you're unsure, snap a photo of your roller and arms and send it through our contact form; a fleet specialist will confirm the size and fabric width (typically 8 ft drop) before we proof anything.
Will it fit my existing awning hardware?+
Yes — our replacement fabric is cut to your exact spec and slides into standard RV awning channels (Dometic, Carefree, Solera, Lippert, A&E). The arms, roller and motor stay in place. No new hardware required.
Can I install it myself or do I need a shop?+
Most owners install it themselves in 30–45 minutes with one helper — we include step-by-step instructions and a short video. If you'd rather have it done, any RV service center can swap the fabric in under an hour. We'll send installer-friendly tags so the shop knows exactly which side is up.
What if I don't have artwork ready?+
No problem — upload a logo, sketch, or even a photo of an old awning and our in-house designers will clean it up and lay it out for you free of charge as part of your digital proof. We won't print anything until you sign off.
Do you offer fleet or bulk pricing?+
Yes. Orders of 3+ matching awnings get tiered fleet pricing and a single approved master proof so every rig in your fleet looks identical. Departments and PO orders welcome — reach out through our contact form.
