I'm interested in your solution(s). I am always amazed when I see a full-timer with an awning and even an attached screen room that looks like it's been in position for years and I know there have been stong winds in the area. They must use EVERTHING available in the market for this.

Many I see remove the bar from the side and position out vertically from the roller, then secure it with all the hardware doodads possible. I have never gotten too close to go check it out, because they remind me of crotchety old timers that don't want visitors. This reminds me of when I was a young lad a long time ago, back in Texas and the old fogeys would yell at us to scare us away and keep us honest as they held their scatterguns comfortably in their arms. It worked because even today I still don't know how they secure their awnings.
