I have a basement ceiling height of 86". Think I could fit this without adding any trim on the top or bottom? I'm an experienced woodworker.

Ours is 85" to the bottom of the trim. 86" should work. The hardware comes with very good directions.

Just built the queen Murphy bed. The side pieces measure 87". Our ceiling is 89" so we had about 1/4" clearance when the sides were tipped up. So, sorry, a no go for a queen.

I redo signed the whole bed to operate at a higher off the floor level. Even with doing that the bed with a crown moulding trim was 93". Good luck with your project.

They do make a horizontal version as well. The horizontal version should fit easily in your space.

You could drill new holes and move the bottom shelf up..you'll only have 8.25 inches from bottom shelf to floor otherwise

I am 5'-10" with an 88" ceiling height. I have the same question. Spoke with Schwinn customer service but they couldn't help. Suggested I go to a store and try it out and measure how high my head goes!

I think maybe you could cut out panels in the top and replace with mesh. However, you should look at the top and when you set it up because it really isn't a very large ceiling.

You can put it all the way to the top of a 7.5 foot ceiling/wall. The bottom of the unit is supposed to be about 30-39 inches off the floor.... an 8 foot ceiling would fit within that range probably as well...

I think the minimum height is somewhere between 6-7 ft ceiling. You should be fine.

I had mine put up by somebody but if you have higher ceilings I'm sure all you have to do is go to your local hardware store and purchase a chain that size. So to answer that yes you can

My basement is only 7 feet which I think is more than adequate. I have it hanging from an I beam which lowers it even more and I still have no issues.

The top rail is suppose to be hung at 83 inches off the floor and from there you hand the 4 foot long upright bars (these are what the shelves and clothes bars attach to. This is what we did on the main floor or our house where the ceiling height in the closets were of normal height. In the basement where the ceilings had to allow for duct work, the top rail had to be hung lower. So in answer to your question, you can almost have the height whatever you need my adjusting where the top rail attaches.

you could leave off the bottom section which measures 18". This would leave the section to go on floor without a smooth finish. But , I expect you could figure out a solution to that issue.

We have a "standard" height ceiling and it came almost to the floor. I would guess that it would be fine with a somewhat higher ceiling, but you would have to step up a bit higher to the ladder. Just be sure that the opening to the attic is large enough. Ours was too small to accommodate the ladder and a person.

I'm 5'8", and am able to use it comfortably with 7' ceilings. It leaves plenty of room between my head and the ceiling. I have a ceiling fan in the room, and would probably even be able to use it under that, although that would be a bit tight for my liking.

I have mine installed about 10" from the ceiling and it looks great! I am sure 8" would work just as well.

Our ceiling is only 78" and it fits great. There was another section that can be put in and you also set the spring to the desired height. My husband put it in and said it should work fine.

You'll need at least 7 to 8ft for the ceiling. I tried to put it in my basement which was 6 and a half, no good.

Hi Ed, Thanks for the question. This fan requires a minimum ceiling height of at least 92.5" in order to meet building codes, so you should be fine because 8.5 feet measures 102". Also, this fan cannot be flush mounted, but again, you should be just fine with your ceiling height. We hope this helps!
