Height Matters

An entrance height between 8-9′ will provide maximum versatility. This is useful for anyone using roof attachments, such as luggage and bike carriers. Some vehicles with adaptations to accommodate a wheelchair require more clearance height than typical passenger vehicles. If the clearance isn’t adequate, some vehicles may not fit under a covered area, making parking more difficult, especially in adverse weather conditions.
