Garage Doors for extra tall, RV style Double-Decker Vehicles

There are many kinds of double decker /extra tall vehicles out on the road these days: big U-hauls to bring people’s belongings from place to place; giant sixteen-wheelers that cart various products (including produce!) all across the country; trailers or mobile homes that can serve as nice vacation or adventure vehicles for families; double decker transport buses or tour buses; even some super souped-up pickup trucks might actually count as “double decker” if their shocks are high enough.


So what does a homeowner with this type pf vehicle do when they want to park it in a tradition or custom garage?  the answer is 1 either purchase a home that can accommodate this type of vehicle (you will be surprised they are in-fact quite common.but being that most garages and garage doors are made for sedans, or two-car sports cars, or sports utility vehicles. Or minivans, convertibles, or motorcycles even. which should do just fine with a standard sized garage and garage door.

But for people with large garages who want to store large vehicles, be they rv's and motor-homes, buses, trailers, trucks, or even something like horse transportation trucks, they’re going to need not only a garage that can fit such a behemoth, but a door that will let it pass through!

Getting your hands on a non-commercial double tall garage door isn’t easy. And truth be told, many of these doors don’t come in all the same fun variations as a standard sized door. For example, carriage-style double deckers are rare, and so are wooden ones. (Unless you live on a farm and have a barn house, but then that’s not a garage anymore.) Most will likely come in aluminum, alloy, or poly-blend types.

So make sure that if you’re going to invest in an over-sized vehicle, that you’ll have a place to store it! And if you plan for that place to be your garage, make sure you have a door that will fit it.
