What I should say is very tight fit

we have just brought a rapido orline folding caravan

our new baby

our garage is just 3" wider than the unit and its a right

task to get her in

never owened folding caravan before so any hints on looking after her too please

Just need to take your time, we store our Crusader in a garage with less that 2" each side going through the door.  Once in less than a foot each side.  Taking the unit out is easy getting her back in can be a mare!!!

you could get motor mover fitted pricey but cheaper than a new garage

 thank you all we have been putting a few ideas in to practice including lining her up in the door way and reversing in with the car  SLOWLY SLOWLY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING  we have cut gaps out of the door frame to give a bit more clearance  we would not have a problem if we went away and did not come home now thats an idea

               CANT WAIT TO TAKE HER OUT FOR THE FIRST HOLIDAY

One of them cheap laser leveller things maybe? Use it to paint a line to follow ? They're about a fiver in most garages. A tip or two though. 1. Pointed them at police anything will get you arrested. 2. Winding people up by painting dots on them is great fun till you realise they can see where the beam is coming from. 3. They are really really good for putting up shelves and stuff. Whatever happens enjoy yourslef.
