Faulkner hardware is non existent. Fabrics for all awnings are universal. You can use almost any brand replacement fabric. But, the fact remains, IF you need fabric, you have a 20 year old awing, why waste money on a discontinued product? If the awing needs repaired, just replace with a Dometic or Carefree. No other hardware parts will work with your Faulkner. Doug

because your looking at 500ish cdn to fix it with other brands tensioners and a new fabric off amazon compared to 2500 - 3000 to buy a new one (Cdn pricing)
awning tubes are pretty standard so there is a very good chance as some one already posted, that other brands tensioners will fit.
now this is assuming you can do the work also, if you have to pay some one to doit then depending on that it very well might be better off just buying a new one.

Man I haven't seen Doug on here in years. He had awesome insight and solutions. He left when the format switched. Shame, he really added a lot to the forum.
