The present invention is a portable two-way awning for use with recreational type trailer vehicles. The awning is comprised of a number of roof panels made with two sheets of aluminum surrounding a polystyrene core. A hanger mechanism is bonded to each of the panels, and suspends them on an adapter rail that slidingly engages with a standard awning attachment rail. The roof panels mate together via a number of interlocking members disposed on their mating sides. The outer periphery of the roof assembly is surrounded with a number of extrusion members. Once the roof assembly is pivoted to a nearly horizontal position, it is supported at its front end by a number of adjustable height poles, two of which swing freely into a vertical position when the roof is initially erected. The awning requires no tools or caulking to set-up, and takes less than thirty minutes to either erect or dismantle. The awning is relatively light in weight, yet strong enough to withstand the harshest of weather conditions.
