Pop Top Roofs

What is a pop top roof and how does it work

A pop top roof is a type of campervan roof that can be raised or lowered, providing extra headroom when needed. The roof carcass is usually made from fibreglass or aluminium. It will include a canvas and is attached to the main body of the campervan via a system of hinges and supports. 

To raise the roof, simply unclip and push the roof up until it locks into place. Different roofs will have different ways of opening and shutting. It's important to test out the system before ordering. 

Some pop top roof systems can be over complicated and difficult to use. They're sometimes complex to open and then heavy to push up. 

There is usually a platform that can be raised or lowered. This then creates your bed. Make sure your pop top roof order includes the bed as part of the cost. You'll then need to purchase a pop top roof mattress. You'll want one that can be left in the roof when it is lowered.
