I'm guessing that you don't have a truck.

I have a Champion 3400 Dual Fuel Inverter Generator (Model 100263). According to the manual (which you can download from their website for any model), the key statistics for this model are:
– Net Weight . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .95.7 lb. (43.4 kg)
– Height . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18.3 in. (46.4 cm)
– Width . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .17.3 in. (44 cm)
– Length. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25.1 in. (63.7 cm)

Hope this helps. By the way, I would recommend that if you store it in your pop-up that you secure it very well with ratchet-style straps over the axle so it doesn't careen around inside and damage your unit. Mine rides secured in the back of my Tundra.

He needs the door measurements, not the generator measurements.

Yes it will fit.
Have same gen and set mine inside door on floor. Had a Flagstaff HW24S before upgrade to Hybrid. Just make sure no leaking gas or leaving it in there during storage or you will be smelling gas.

Most popups have same door width.

I usually set it in pickup bed.

But some folks tow with SUV and don't want it in their cars.
