Caravan Window Replacements
Overview
Caravan window replacements are custom-manufactured plastic glazing panels produced to match existing caravan, camper trailer, and RV window specifications. These panels are fabricated to drawing to replace damaged, cracked, discoloured, or delaminated originals.
Where It’s Used
Touring caravans
Fifth wheelers
Camper trailers
Motorhomes
Fleet rental caravans
Mobile site accommodation units
Replacement windows may be fixed, hinged, sliding, or awning-style, depending on the original configuration.
Why Plastic Is Used
Plastic glazing is widely specified in caravans due to:
Reduced weight compared to glass
Impact resistance during road travel
Resistance to vibration and flex
Ease of machining for hardware integration
Improved safety in mobile environments
Material selection must balance clarity, durability, and impact performance based on use conditions.
Recommended Materials for Wear Strips
Custom Manufactured to Your Drawings
Caravan window replacements are typically drawing-led.
We manufacture to:
Supplied CAD files (DXF, DWG, STEP)
Dimensioned technical sketches
Physical samples for reverse engineering
Measured aperture drawings
Production can accommodate:
One-off replacements
Small batch fleet replacements
Repeat production for caravan repairers or manufacturers
All panels are CNC machined and finished in-house to maintain dimensional accuracy and consistency. We do not resell pre-made caravan windows; components are produced to specification.

Key Performance Requirements
Mechanical
Impact resistance against road debris
Resistance to cracking under vibration
Edge strength around mounting holes
Dimensional stability across temperature change
Resistance to stress crazing around fasteners
Environmental
UV resistance to reduce yellowing
Moisture resistance
Thermal cycling performance
Resistance to cleaning chemicals
Long-term optical clarity
Recommended Materials
Polycarbonate
High impact resistance
Suitable for road travel and debris exposure
Good optical clarity
More resistant to cracking under vibration
Trade-off: Can scratch more easily than glass; hard-coated grades may be considered where required.
Acrylic (PMMA)
Excellent optical clarity
Good UV resistance
Lightweight
Cost-effective for non-impact-critical areas
Warning: Acrylic is more brittle than polycarbonate and may crack under high impact or incorrect installation. Not recommended where stone strike risk is high.
Alternative Options:
All components used in this application are manufactured in-house using controlled, drawing-led production processes. We do not supply generic or off-the-shelf products. Each part is produced to specification to meet defined mechanical, environmental, and installation requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Thickness must match the original frame and seal configuration. Common ranges are 3–6mm, but this varies by model and window size.
Polycarbonate offers higher impact resistance. Acrylic provides superior surface hardness and clarity but is more brittle.
Yes. A physical sample can be used for reverse engineering, subject to condition.
This application covers custom-manufactured glazing panels only. Hardware integration can be accommodated where drawings specify.
Tint matching is possible within material grade limitations. Exact colour matching may vary by manufacturer.
UV-stabilised grades are available and recommended for exterior exposure.
