Default How wide are the campers?

Ok so I am looking at moving and the gate at the new house

Thanks in advance

The body of the camper is a bit under 8' wide. The awning and the side lights make it a few inches wider.

Several discussions cover it. Start here

Somebody here has made brackets that allow the awning to flip up onto the roof, eliminating that extra width.

You need to either be a Trial Member or Site Sponsor to get full access.

On my camper, the front shell is a bit over 91 inches wide. The porch lights add 2 1/2 inches on each side. The awning is 4 inches wide from the wall.

So 91 + 2 1/2 + 2 1/2 = 96 inches including the lights but not the awning.
and 91 + 2 1/2 + 4 = 97 1/2 including the awning.

With a 96 inch gate opening, it would appear that you are indeed, as you so elegantly put it, sol. Any chance you can widen the gate by, say, 6 inches? The HOA may allow it if you meet certain conditions.
