garage parking

Does anyone know of a lowered pop up camper with
a flush toilet and PU combo that will clear a 93in tall opening?

Thanks in advance E.P.
  • One more thing to consider, if you are close.

    My garage door opener is lower than the bottom of the garage door header.
  • I have 95" clear at my garage door header, and my FourWheel popup camper (FWC) fits in the garage on the back of my F350 4X4. My camper has a cassette toilet. FWC are 59" from the bed to the top of the vent. My truck unloaded only had 58" clear, but it settled 2" with the camper on so it just clears.

    Don't forget to allow for the angle in your measurements of pulling into a parking garage. If there is any angle to it, the actual entrance could be less.


    Thanks jimh425
    Good reminder
    It`s a flat surface
    E.P.
  • With the right truck you might be ok as my Hallmark is at 102" with the roof vents/ no A/C. But my 4x4 Ram is taller than some other trucks. I think they build at least three campers with a wet bath/ toilet.
    My garage has a 9' door so it fits inside no problem.

  • Thanks Guys
    Yes 93in. is taller than the norm which might give me hope.
    I might add the toilet is important for my middle of the night
    visit
    A porta potty is not for me.

    I think a measurement from the rear PU bed plus the height of the closed camper will give me the numbers i need
  • The height of the truck is going to be a major part of the height. In my experience, GM 2500s, not 2500HDs are about the shortest. On top of that, put a Four Wheel Camper.
  • That sounds a lot higher than your average residential garage door opening. One of the guys here recently posted a picture of his pop up on a floor level dolly and it was just barely clearing his garage door header.
