The HiLo Roof System was born out of dissatisfaction with the handful of roofs on the market, in terms of the 4 or 5 main considerations when buying one – e.g:
OVERALL DESIGN
The basic look & construction had already been around for decades, pretty much unchanged.
HEIGHT WHEN RAISED
We knew that even those customers of average height couldn’t stand up straight towards the rear of their camper and were limited to only being able to sleep one way round: feet to the rear.
APPEARANCE WHEN CLOSED
Customers using their Transporter for multi-purposes (daily driver/ work, as well as weekends away) felt the traditional “bath tub” style roofs compromised the clean, uncluttered lines of their van and were concerned about their increase in height/ frontal area resulting in a reduction in fuel economy.
SAFETY / QUALITY
Worried not only about the tie-down straps that we’d had first-hand experience of fraying/ slipping (on occasion resulting in lift at speed), but also having seen the standard of some of the budget “copy” roofs in various installations, we knew there had to be a better way…
Highest Lifting
1350mm extra height at front & 520mm at rear, for full length standing height & maximum space up top, whichever way round you choose to sleep!
\
Lowest Profile
Pod-less, OE–look roof sits just 15mm above original height with no bolts or seals on view. Maintains ample headroom for seated rear occupants + optimum mpg. Our patented design means you won’t find anything lower!
Safety First
The first elevating roof in-vehicle crash tested to M1 insurance standard, EC Directive 76/115/EEC compliant
Fits any T5 / T6
Suitable for all LWB or SWB, with or without rear spoiler
100% British
Designed, developed & manufactured in the UK
5 Year Warranty
Supplied on all hardware within the roof kit
Convex construction & drain tubes
Being ribbed for added strength & with drain tubes in all 4 corners, the HiLo won’t bend or collect water up top
Insulated roof
Option of insulation for maximum sound proofing & ambient temperature retention
5 point lock down system
Instead of the traditional/ fiddly tie-downs to ensure quiet, secure, peace of mind motoring
Supplied in gel coat finish
Comes in black as standard or can be painted the colour of your vehicle to match as an optional extra
Unique, triple-zipped, all weather windows
Park any way round – wind or rain, with an unobstructed view out. Choose from fully open, clear, mesh or black-out!
Removable sliding access hatch
Keeps everything nice & neat when travelling
Highly water repellent canvas
Our HiLo canvas fabric is made from top quality, PU coated, woven acrylic fabric which is highly water repellent. The fabric is characterised by excellent strength, durability, tear/abrasion & UV resistance, dimensional stability and is extremely mildew resistant.
The fabric is easy to clean and is protected by a 5 year manufacturers warranty.
Choose any colour! Supplied in black as standard.
Can replace most existing elevating roofs
We have removed all manner of aftermarket pop-tops and fitted a value-adding HiLo instead
Includes 2-berth elevating bed
Easy push up/ pull down – tested to over 50 stone!
(Mattress available to purchase separately)
Short lead time
HiLo represents the highest quality & very best value roof kit on the market. Available much faster than if placing an order with a non-UK company
Accommodates all conventional roof rail systems
Integral reinforcement along its length means the HiLo will easily sustain the weight of your surfboards / roof box / ladders etc
Patented design
HiLo Roof Systems have full patent & registered design protection. HiLo is a registered trademark
Did you know that in order to achieve a true low profile when closed and an ultra-high bedroom and walking height when elevated, the high quality components of a HiLo elevating roof cost anything up to 6 times as much as those within the ‘traditional’ style of elevating roof?
HiLo Roof Opening
Spot The Difference
You can clearly see the HiLo roof goes higher and lower than other roofs
