I purchased this style of shade and found the original zipper failed quickly. I then took it to an awning shop and had them install high quality zipper (YKK). I had them install a zipper on each end of the shade zipping in to the center so that I only had to deal with 1/2 of the shade material at a time. This has worked very well for me. I will say that the cost of the new zipper was more than the cost of the original shade but well worth it. This system is much easier to use than trying to install the shade into the awning tube each time I wanted to use it. Most importantly it is faster to remove and roll up awning when a wind storm is coming!!
