Everyone has different needs when it comes to buying, equipping and living in their campervan, but a modification that has become increasingly essential over the years has been the addition of a pop top roof.
Designed for use with the Volkswagen Transporter family, as well as custom Ford Transit vans and the Mercedes Vito, our pop top roof installations provide a huge boost to your travel experience and allow you to maximise the comfort of your motorhome.
The biggest and most obvious advantage they provide is the addition of space to allow you to stand up in the van once it is lifted. This makes the living area of the van far more comfortable and makes it easier to use the kitchen and move around.
Whilst there are fixed roof conversions, they can affect the driving characteristics of the van and stop it from being driven under low bridges and in certain tunnels with height restrictions. This allows the van to be easily used as a daily driver, as there are few aerodynamic effects to the roof itself.
They can also offer more sleeping space, as the roof often has a platform that allows people to sleep in the roof area. This can be particularly useful for families or groups of adventurers, as a single van can comfortably house up to four people.
The upper area also often operates as a viewing platform, allowing you to see an elevated view of your natural surroundings. This makes them perfect for particularly adventurous holidays where there are some particularly glorious sights to behold.
They often come with additional ventilation options, which can stop a campervan from feeling stuffy on a particularly warm night. Some also come with insect and mosquito nets that keep flies from spoiling a pleasant evening.
The right pop top roof can take your campervan experience and make it even better and more convenient.
