A hard-shell rooftop tent that sleeps two, pops open in seconds and closes just as fast - built for truck and SUV owners who want camp to be the easy part.
The SkyGii Roof Top Tent replaces poles and fabric flaps with a welded aluminium shell and gas struts. Unlatch it and the shell lifts itself; camp is standing in seconds, and it packs down flat again when you want to move on.
Why riders choose it
- Opens and closes in seconds - gas struts lift the shell the moment you unlatch it. No poles to thread, no cover to wrestle with.
- Rock solid once it is up - a rigid aluminium shell means no flex, no sway and no fabric flapping in the wind.
- Welded aluminium corners - the corners are welded aluminium rather than glued, so they stay waterproof instead of drying out, cracking and leaking after a few seasons.
- Rated for real weather - Beaufort class 6 wind resistance and IP67 dust and water sealing, with a sealing strip running right around the shell.
- Carries your gear while you sleep - a full side T-slot takes awnings, cross bars and accessories: 10 kg while open, 50 kg while closed.
- Comfortable inside - a 3 cm high-density mattress is included, with three doors and a 200 x 130 cm sleeping footprint.

Setup and use

Roof Top & Inflated Roof Top Tent Specific
How much weight can the roof top tent hold?
Hard-shell roof top tents (e.g., SkyLodge Alpha): Max load 660 lbs (fits 2–3 adults).
Inflated roof top tents (e.g., SkyAir Quick): Max load 440 lbs (fits 2 adults or a small family).
Do not exceed weight limits for safety.
Is it safe to sleep in a roof top tent while driving?
No! For safety, fold and secure the roof top tent completely before driving.
Never sleep in the tent or leave it unfolded during driving—it will cause wind resistance, damage the tent or lead to accidents.
How long does it take to inflate the inflated roof top tent?
The SkyAir Quick inflated roof top tent inflates fully in 3–5 minutes with the included electric air pump. The pump is portable and can be powered by a car cigarette lighter or portable power bank.
What if the inflated tent leaks air during use?
All inflated tents come with a repair kit (glue + patch). For small leaks: clean the damaged area, apply glue and stick the patch. For large leaks or quality issues, contact customer support immediately for replacement or refund.
General Questions
Why there is water inside when camping in cold weather or after rain? Is it leaking?
Condensation can form inside the tent when both the outside and inside temperatures are above 5 degrees Celsius.
This commonly occurs during cold or rainy weather.
Since the rainwater temperature is lower than the air inside the tent, condensation is likely to occur.
What types of vehicles are SkyGii tents compatible with?
Pickup canopy tents: fit most full-size and mid-size pickup trucks (e.g., Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Silverado). If your pickup model is not in our list, don't worry, we can customize for 1pc only.
Roof top tents: work with any vehicle with sturdy cross bars (load capacity ≥ 160 lbs), if you don't have cross bars, just buy one pair. You can also let us know your vehicle model number to see if we have the one for you or not.
Car side awnings: fit all SUVs, pickup trucks and vans with roof rails or awning mounting brackets.
Do I need professional tools to install the tent?
No! All SkyGii products feature tool-free installation.
Most pickup canopy tents take 15–20 minutes to set up alone, but you need to lift it to the truck bed firstly.
roof top tents take 25–30 minutes usually.
We provide step-by-step video guides on our website and YouTube channel.
Is assembly required for the tent?
Minimal assembly is needed. The main frame comes pre-assembled—you only need to attach small parts (mounting brackets, poles). No special skills are required.
Can I use SkyGii tents in all weather conditions?
Yes. Our tents are made of heavy-duty Oxford fabric with PU 3000mm waterproof coating and UV-resistant treatment. They withstand light to moderate rain, wind (≤ 35 mph) and sunny days. For extreme weather (heavy storms, snowstorms), store the tent indoors or use a protective cover.
How do I clean and maintain my tent?
1.Clean fabric with mild soap and cold water, then air dry completely before storage (do not machine wash/bleach).
2. Wipe metal parts with a dry cloth to prevent rust.
3. Store in a cool, dry place—avoid long-term exposure to direct sunlight or humidity.
4. If you mount it on the car, but not use, check it after rain, there might be condensation inside.
Shipping & Returns
How long does shipping take?
Orders are dispatched from our factory within 5 business days, then shipped by sea freight with local delivery to your door. Because our products are large, they travel by truck rather than by small-parcel courier, so transit takes longer than usual. Please allow:
To USA: 30–40 days after dispatch
To Australia: 30–40 days after dispatch (western Australia may take longer)
To Europe: 50–60 days after dispatch
*We are unable to ship to islands or remote territories at this time.
Do I have to pay customs duties or taxes?
For orders shipped to the USA, the European Union, and Australia, the price you pay includes all applicable taxes and duties — there are no additional fees on delivery. For any other destination, please contact us before ordering and we will confirm the charges.
What is your return policy?
We offer a 30-day return window from the date of delivery. Contact us through the contact form with your order number first — we will send you a Return Form and the return address. Return unused items in their original packaging for a full refund or exchange. We cover return shipping for quality issues; for non-quality returns the customer covers return shipping. For large items such as pickup canopy tents and hard shell rooftop tents, we arrange replacement parts or a local repair first, because shipping a complete unit back is rarely practical. Full details are in our Return & Refund Policy.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes — all SkyGii products come with a 2-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use, starting from the date of delivery. Contact us for free replacement parts, repair, or replacement within the warranty period. The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, accident damage, misuse, or improper installation.
