Width of 16' Bambi with Door Open?

Hi there. I am trying to figure out if a 16 foot Bambi will it in my driveway and allow enough space to enter and exit the trailer with the door open. I've been able to find dimensions of the trailer with the door closed, but I can't find anything that includes the footprint required for the door to swing fully open. Does anyone out there have this information?

Hi

Add 3 feet.

That's not an exact number, but it's close. You always will have to allow a bit of "extra" simply for how you position the trailer in the drive as you back it in ....

Not exactly your trailer, but the door on my 16’ measured 30”. 3’ allowance is good advice.

Can anyone with a Bambi/Sport 16RB tell me the distance from the end of the tongue to the edge of the door on a Bambi? Or the distance from the rear end to the edge of the door?

From tongue to front of door is ~7ft. ~9ft to rear of door.
