RV Skirting
"Do it Yourself" with Professional results
Before EZ Snap; to get a custom fit RV skirting for your motorhome or RV, you would have had to hire an upholster to come to your R.V. and custom fit your RV Skirting (Very Expensive). But now using the EZ Snap fateners you can install your own RV Skirting and fifth wheel skirting with complete kits starting at only $140 and achieve the same results as the expensive upholstery shop.

RV SkirtingThe RV Skirting Material:
When EZ Snap developed this RV skirting kit; we wanted to use the very best material we could find for the application. The RV skirting material had to be able to withstand temperature and winds in -40 degree winter conditions. It also had to be able to handle the extreme summer temperatures in places like Arizona.
It also had to be a " Non-Fray material like our shade screen mesh, so that Do-it-yourselfers could cut the fabric on-site and not have to hem the edges. Well, we found an amazingly durable product, that was more than capable to handle all of our requirements. This material has a proven track record of outstanding performance.
It has the maximum amount of U.V. ray and fade inhibitors, mold and mildew inhibitors and -40 cold weather performance rating. We know you will be very pleased with its performance. Even though the EZ Snap RV Skirting is much less expensive than a professionally installed skirting, the quality of the finished product will be as good, if not better than the material an upholstery shop would install. White is the color of the EZ Snap RV skirting.
We have choosen white for two main reasons. First it is by far the most popular color as most RVs are white. The second reason we use white is that many customers leave their skirting on all year round. White helps keep the RV cooler by reflecting and sealing out the hot summer heat. RV skirting helps lower air conditioning bills in the hot summer months.
Ease of Installation - How to install RV Skirting
The RV Skirting installs very similar to our RV shade screens or our residential shade screens. (See the Video on the home Page) . You first place the screw studs into your RV in the areas that you wish to install the RV skirting. We recommend a 12" spacing on the fasteners; see tip below for more info. Then place the EZ Snap pins onto the stud. Place the skirting fabric over the pins, puncturing the fabric with the pins and taking out any wrinkles as you move along. Then when you are happy with the look, just press on the EZ Snap caps and you're done.
The RV side skirting fabric comes in a 36" width and the front fifth wheel enclosure skirt is 73" tall. If it is too wide, just cut it down to your required size. Remember our RV skirting material is a "Non-Fray" fabric so there is no need to hem it. * See Install Tip below
Tip: For extra windy locations, we recommend placing the studs more like every 8" to 6" apart. If you use this spacing you will need to order extra fastener sets with your order.
How to hold down the RV Skirting
The RV skirting can be held in place in a variety of ways. One way is to use our PVC pipe clamp shown on the right in conjunction with lengths of 3/4"white PVC irrigition pipe. Simply go to your local hardware store and purchase lengths of 3/4" white PVC irrigation pipe. Wrap the bottom of your skirting fabric around the pipe lengths and snap our pipe clamp over the fabric.
Tuck the excess fabric under the RV. This pipe helps to weigh down the fabric in the wind as well as keep it straight. You can also purchase 90 degree pipe fittings from your hardware store to help make smooth corners for your skirting.
Other methods of holding skirting down are to fold the excess under the RV and weight it down with sand bags or 2 x 4 lumber lengths. You can also spike this excess fabric into the ground using large spikes and fender washers.
