The Cost of Leaving It On

30%

More Fuel

A rooftop tent creates constant aerodynamic drag — every trip, every day, whether you’re camping or not.

2.1m

Clearance Lost

Multi-storeys, drive-throughs, shopping centres — locked out by the tent sitting permanently on your roof.

UV

Daily Damage

Exposed canvas and hardware degrades faster in the Australian sun. Every unused day is wear you can’t take back.

$$$

Rack Stress

Constant load on roof racks and vehicle mounts adds up — in wear, in fatigue, and in eventual repair costs.

The System

How The Roof top
Tent Hoist Works

Two ceiling-mounted spool units feed dual belt straps down around your rooftop tent box.

Wind the manual handle – the worm drive gearbox does the heavy work, lifting the tent clear of your roof rack and locking it safely overhead.

No heavy lifting.

No guesswork.

No risk of the load slipping back down.

01

Mount to Ceiling

Install the two spool units to a structurally suitable ceiling above your parking position. DIY-friendly with standard tools – most installs done in under two hours.

02

Feed the Straps

Lower the dual belt straps and wrap them securely around your rooftop tent box only — not the rack, not the car. The tent takes the load, not your paint.

03

Wind & Lift

Turn the manual winding handle. The worm drive gearbox raises the tent smoothly off the rack – holds it locked in position automatically.

04

Drive Away

Your tent stores safely overhead. Drive out. Come back, reverse in, lower, clip on. You’re loaded and ready for the next trip in minutes.

Why Leave Your RTT On Full Time?

The Benefits Of
Taking Your RTT
Off

Restore Fuel Efficiency

Remove up to 30% in unnecessary aerodynamic drag every day you’re not on a trip. It adds up fast.

W

Full Clearance Restored

Multi-storey car parks, drive-throughs, covered areas — back in play for daily driving.

Protect Your Investment

Stored indoors, shielded from UV and weather — your tent stays in condition for longer.

One Person. No Hassle.

Purpose-built for solo removal and storage — no second set of hands, no awkward juggling.

Looking for a Full Garage Storage Solution?

The Roof Top Tent Hoist is purpose-built for one thing. If your storage needs go beyond the tent, the Ozil Lifts® Motorised Garage Storage Lift was designed for that job.

How much weight can the Ozil Lifts® RTT Hoist lift?

The Ozil Lifts® Roof Top Tent Hoist is rated to 100kg working load limit — covering the vast majority of hard and soft shell rooftop tents on the Australian market.

Is a roof top tent hoist worth it?

If you drive daily with your RTT mounted, yes — removing it when you’re not camping restores fuel efficiency, returns full vehicle clearance for multi-storey car parks and drive-throughs, and protects the tent from UV degradation between trips.

What rooftop tents is the Ozil Lifts® hoist compatible with?

The hoist is compatible with all major hard and soft shell rooftop tents and roof storage capsules up to 100kg including: Adventure Kings, Darche, 23Zero, iKamper, OZtrail, Dune, Motop, Drifta Stockton. Adjustable width settings to suit a wide range of sizes. 

It is not designed for general garage storage — see the Ozil Lifts® Motorised Garage Storage Lift for that.

Can I install a roof top tent hoist myself?

Yes — the Ozil Lifts® RTT Hoist is DIY and installations are complete in under two hours. It must be mounted to a structurally suitable ceiling. 

Where can I buy a roof top tent hoist in Australia?

The Ozil Lifts® Roof Top Tent Hoist is available only through ozillifts.com. It’s Australian-engineered and ships nationally. 

How do you store a rooftop tent when not in use?

The best way to store a rooftop tent is indoors, off the vehicle — lifted overhead in your garage using a purpose-built RTT hoist. Leaving it mounted on your roof rack between trips costs you fuel efficiency, vehicle clearance, and accelerates UV and weather damage to the canvas and hardware. The Ozil Lifts® Roof Top Tent Hoist lets one person lift the tent off the rack and store it safely overhead in minutes, then lower it back on before the next trip.

I am so pleased that we made the decision to install an Ozil Lift in the garage. Us oldies no longer have to climb ladders with all the risks this entails. All our large items such as luggage and multiple containers are now safely stored on the lift. No more clutter in the garage. Great! So easy to operate. Would highly recommend this product.

After months of online searches for a safe and efficient overhead garage storage solution, I stumbled on Ozil Lifts in final development. I’m so glad I did. Jacqui was extremely helpful and informative. Ben the installer was also very efficient. We now have an amazing motorised overhead storage platform in our garage taking up to 200kg with no overhead manual lifting. Love it!

I was very impressed with the quality of the Ozil Lift and was almost disappointed that a cover had to go over the motor and gearbox. It was quite a serious and beautiful piece of equipment to see. We were able to get a surprising amount of our possessions off the floor with two Ozil Lifts. Our workable space had been very tight. Due to having downsized twice from living on a small farm to currently living in an over 50's environment, we didn't want to completely eliminate all that we had been able to do with our lives. There was only so much of our possessions that we wanted to get rid of in the process. As we were not quite ready to expunge our entire lives, the Ozil Lifts have meant that we could retain much of our usable gear. It has also made our gear easily accessible. Thank-you Jacqui

The Ozil lifts have finally given us space to move. That cluttered feeling means you are bumping up against stuff and sometimes causing unnecessary damage. It has truly been liberating. The guys who did the installing were great to get on with; very obliging. Jacqui was super helpful; and with some discussion and a change of plan we were able to get a design for two lifts in our garage that works well for us. We truly appreciate the Ozil willingness to accommodate our needs.

The difference this has made to parking in the garage of our beach unit is amazing! Previously we were constantly nudging over surfboards or scooters or sports equipment. Now it is all up on the lift making the space so much more comfortable to move around. Highly recommend!!!

This is a fabulous product! As a shorter woman in her 60’s I love how effortlessly the platform lowers to a safe and manageable height at the turn of a key, making it easy to load heavy items. There is no excuse for a messy or cluttered garage now!
