Keep your Omega window awnings and Guardi-Awn slideout awnings securely locked in the extended position with these OEM-style pull strap catches from Carefree of Colorado. A simple, low-profile hardware solution that prevents unwanted retraction while parked.
The Carefree of Colorado 901044 Pull Strap Catch is the factory-correct replacement or addition for RVs equipped with Carefree Omega window awnings or Guardi-Awn slideout awnings. Once the awning is extended, the pull strap slides into the catch and holds the fabric panel firmly in place, reducing wind flutter and unintended retraction.
This set includes two catches plus mounting screws -- everything you need for a standard left-and-right installation on a single window awning, or for replacing worn or broken catches on multiple units. The matte black finish blends cleanly with dark awning hardware and RV sidewalls.
Designed specifically for Carefree Omega window awnings and Guardi-Awn slideout awnings -- no modification required.
Each set contains two pull strap catches and the mounting screws needed for a complete installation.
At just 0.2 inches thick and 4.25 inches long, these catches sit flush against the RV sidewall without protruding or snagging.

These catches are engineered for use with Carefree of Colorado awning systems. Confirmed compatible applications include:
If you are unsure whether your awning uses a pull strap retention system, check the bottom rail of your awning for an existing catch slot or strap loop. Omega and Guardi-Awn models typically use a looped nylon pull strap that routes into a wall-mounted clip -- this catch is that clip.
Installation is straightforward and requires only a screwdriver. Mount each catch to the RV sidewall at the appropriate height to capture the awning pull strap when the awning is fully extended. Use the included mounting screws and, if mounting into thin substrate, consider adding a backing plate or using a sealant around the screw penetrations to prevent water intrusion.
