Awning height vs caravan height

Any advice gratefully received.

We have a 2007 Avondale Dart 510/5 which looks close to the ground compared with more modern vans but the external height is actually 259cm.  Currently looking for a porch air awning for weekend use and most seem to have a height range of 230-250cm. Need I worry about those extra 9cm or are there awnings designed for vans above 250cm that I should look at instead?

Thanks

    Caravan height is measured to the highest point i.e. TV aerial, awning height is to the awning rail, you will be OK.

    Many thanks Chris

    Obvious when you think about it or stare hard at the side of your caravan!
