Trillium Add-A-Room Factory Option

People have asked to see an original Trillium Trailer Add-A-Room and the Canopy that comes with it. The canopy has three spring-loaded bars across the top, and three poles which support it. Therefore, no support cables are required keeping you from tripping over cables. It's very easy to put up.

The add-a-room walls are zippered along the top, attaching it to the canopy. You'll notice that there are snaps along the side of the trailer, which fastens the canopy walls securely to the trailer.

The walls of the Add-A-Room have screen windows with outer roll-up curtains made of canvas material.

We find this particular canopy handy when we go camping for any extended length of time. We can put the picnic table and lawn chairs in there, it also reduces the wind and also keeps out flies and rain.

Here's 12 pictures I took the summer of 2001. I've provided a small description for each picture. If you have any questions or would like to know more, you can find me back at the Boler website, and contact me, "Gord100".


You can see me pointing to the snaps on the side of the trailer (notice the far end too.) The side walls of the Add-A-Room attach here.

Here you can see how the canopy is supported. You can't see it very well, but there is a top/front horizontal bar that secures the three front vertical supports.

The canopy is attached to the trailer by sliding the canopy through a grove mounted to the trailer.
Notice the poles under the canopy. There are three of them. They're spring loaded (like shower curtain bar), so they do a great job keeping the tarp on top stretched.

The poles are adjustable for height. They also have a metal loop at the bottom to hold them in place with tent poles.

If it rains very heavy, you'll need to push up from under the canopy to drain the water. Other than that, it's very secure and stable in all kinds of weather.

Here's a view from far.

Here's a look at the Add-A-Room securely attached to the trailer, with the side canvas curtains down.

The red arrow indicates the vertical zipper used to "get in" to the Add-A-Room. You can also see the strings above used to tie the rolled up curtains.

Here's a look with the curtains tied up.
