Choosing Between 7-Foot and 8-Foot Heights
In modern Canadian homes, door height has become a vital consideration due to the size of contemporary vehicles:
7-Foot High Doors (7'0" / 84 inches)
The standard North American residential garage door height for past decades.
- Best For: Sedans, hatchbacks, compact crossovers, and garages with lower ceiling clearances.
- Clearance Consideration: May be tight for lifted pickup trucks, rooftop ski cargo boxes, or roof-mounted bike racks.
- Sizes: 9' x 7' Single • 16' x 7' Double
8-Foot High Doors (8'0" / 96 inches)
The modern builder standard for Manitoba homes, accommodating modern trucks and SUVs.
- Best For: Full-size pickups (F-150, Silverado, Ram), large SUVs (Tahoe, Expedition), rooftop carriers.
- Clearance Consideration: Provides an additional 12 inches of vertical headroom, preventing vehicle roof antenna collisions.
- Sizes: 9' x 8' Single • 16' x 8' Double • 18' x 8' Wide
