On the Mammoth thread, the truck camper entry door width came up. So, what is your door width? Any other thoughts about entry door width?

I can't say I've ever needed mine to be wider. I don't remember the measurement. I have a 2006 Host Rainier Double Slide.

'10 Ford F-450, 6.4, 4.30, 4x4, 14,500 GVWR, '06 Host Rainer 950 DS, Torklift Talon tiedowns, Glow Steps, and Fastguns. Bilstein 4600s, Firestone Bags, Toyo M655 Gs, Curt front hitch, Energy Suspension bump stops.

23 3/4" door opening for our AF996. Fridge (at edge of trim) is 24 1/4". If it ever needed to be removed, there would obviously need to be some dissassembly first.

Whatever mine is, I have to turn sideways to get through... My shoulders wedge on the frame if I try to step in straight. That means it's less than 28", and it's a cheap popup so I'd imagine closer to 20" than 28".

Sigh... Oh well, so far the narrow door hasn't been an issue. Just hope I don't have to change the refrigerator any time soon. (knock wood)
At least we're accumulating data points.

Northstar Arrow, Laredo, and Vista all 26" doors. Nice width.

Are you sure about that? I just measured, 20" opening on my Northstar Adventurer. I was sure I had the same door as the Laredo. Maybe not...

The Host Mammoth has less than a 2' wide door way next to the 8' wide right slide. I don't remember if I measured a 20" or 22" actual opening.
