The EXR4691 Click-In Awning Bracket Kit is a lightweight, quick-release awning mounting solution designed exclusively for EXR click-in crossbars. Built around EXR’s patented interlocking click-in system, the EXR4691 delivers a uniquely secure connection while allowing the awning to be installed or removed in seconds—without tools.
This bracket set is ideal for users who want the convenience of running an awning during trips or weekend adventures, then quickly removing it for daily driving, reduced wind resistance, improved fuel efficiency, or easy access to automated car washes.
EXR Click-In Strength, Without Permanent Hardware
The EXR4691 uses EXR’s proven click-in push-pin interface, which mechanically interlocks into the crossbar profile rather than relying on friction or clamp pressure. Once installed, the bracket is exceptionally stable for its size, yet intentionally engineered with controlled tolerance to allow fast insertion and removal.
When the awning is removed, the brackets stay with the awning and are unclicked from the crossbars—leaving a clean roofline and eliminating unnecessary drag when the awning isn’t needed.
Perfect for Small to Medium Awnings
The EXR4691 is designed for small to medium awnings where quick removal and modularity are more important than maximum cantilever load capacity. It is an excellent choice for:
- Side-mounted straight awnings
- Compact pull-out awnings
- Daily-driver to camping setups
- Vehicles that alternate between adventure use and commuting
For large or 270-degree wraparound awnings, EXR offers a separate heavy-duty bolt-on solution designed specifically for those loads (EXR9611).
Fast Removal for Daily Driving & Car Wash Access
One of the biggest advantages of the EXR4691 is how quickly it can be removed when the awning isn’t needed. Many users choose to:
- Run the awning only during trips or weekends
- Remove it for daily driving to reduce wind noise and drag
- Quickly unmount it before entering car washes
Because the brackets click in and out in seconds, there is no reason to leave unused hardware on the vehicle.
Compatibility & Installation
The EXR4691 is compatible only with EXR click-in crossbars. It does not mount to solid or non-EXR crossbars.
The brackets attach to the awning using the awning manufacturer’s supplied hardware, allowing compatibility with a wide range of awning brands and mounting patterns. The EXR4691 kit itself does not include awning-specific bolts or fasteners.
Construction & Design Philosophy
Like all EXR accessories, the EXR4691 is built from durable, corrosion-resistant materials designed for outdoor exposure and repeated use. The design prioritizes:
- Speed of installation and removal
- Secure mechanical engagement
- Modularity within the EXR ecosystem
This makes the EXR4691 a smart choice for users who value flexibility and ease of use as much as strength.
