Measure the vehicle and every clearance.
Door Height Alone Does Not Prove RV Fit
An RV-garage label does not prove that a motorhome, boat or trailer will fit. Verify door width and height, clear interior width and depth, ceiling and lift clearance, driveway width and slope, turning room, street approach, utility placement and the final built dimensions for the actual property.

Verify The Complete Access Path
Start with the actual motorhome, boat or trailer in travel condition, including mirrors, racks, accessories and working clearance.

Movement before storage
Measure The Approach
A vehicle can fit the finished bay and still be unable to reach it safely or comfortably.
Street
Observe width, parked vehicles, curb geometry and opposite-side clearance.
Turn
Test the practical turning path and gate alignment with the actual vehicle.
Driveway
Measure width, slope, breakover and usable staging area.
Opening
Measure clear door width and height at the completed structure.
Bay
Measure usable width, depth and height with equipment and storage installed.
Plans and field conditions
Record Dimensions Without Rounding Up
Keep clear bay width and depth as whole feet only when the source supports that precision. Preserve a supplied decimal for door height, and never increase a dimension to create an apparent fit.
