MAIN Features
Wheel Bearings
We have specifically engineered our dual bearing wheels for this new drawer system to ensure they will last the test of time.
Engaging bearing manufacturers to make them to our specifications.
Load rating
Our drawers are rated to support a 125KG distributed load. The drawers have been stress tested to ensure each drawer can handle 125KG fully loaded.
We have performed cyclic testing to ensure that these drawers will not fail in the field. With the drawer running through 16000 in and out cycles without fail.
(We have taken into consideration safe work practices. E.g. loading drawers with more weight can cause a user safety scenario, if the vehicle is on uneven terrain)
Sideways Roller guides
Lock Handle
We have designed our new lock to ensure an ergonomic grip while being able to endure daily use and abuse. With a large, texturized rubber handle to ensure you are able to grip comfortably.
Each drawer lock comes keyed randomly from a set of our customised 5 Key combinations, this ensures your stored cargo is safe.
Locking Cross Bar Mechanism
Lock in Lock out
All drawers come with a standard lock in lock out function, this is a flush flip latch housed in the top cross bar of the outer casing. This is to ensure when you are accessing your items, the drawer will not close on you.
We also have an optional intermittent locking strip which will allow you to close the drawer at varying positions. (Sold Separately)
Maintenance & Lifecycle
We have intentionally designed our new drawers so they can be maintained and serviced during its life. This means 5-10 years down the track; you can buy replacement parts if necessary and bring your drawer back to life.
This includes removing the internal drawer assembly easily, and the ease of replacing wheels without having to remove the drawer from inside the vehicle. (These instructions can be accessed by scanning the QR code which is on our drawers Model ID Plate on the internal side panel of the drawer)
Modular sizing
We are the only drawer manufacturer who offers a fully modular drawer system, this means we can offer a drawer size which suits your vehicle and needs. In a range of sizes that will fit the exact location you want in your vehicle.
We can stack drawers, mount side by side; the options are endless.
Outrigger & Infill Panels
Our new Modular outriggers and side infill plates allow us to outfit any Ute or Van in existance. Allowing a perfect fit to ensure all gaps are filled.
With these outriggers we can then supply & fit carpeted or rubber pockets which allow you to access valuable storage space in front and behind your wheel arches.

drawer heights
Common orientations
SERVICE BODY DRAWER
A drawer installed into your service body can complement your tool and equipment storage.
A base Frame is necessary, as this will give enough height clearance to allow the drawer to pull out over the service body side lip.
VAN DRAWER - SIDE DOOR NARROW
Placing a narrow drawer at the sliding door allows easy access to your tools when parked.
Having a narrow drawer allows you the ability to still enter and access through the sliding door.
VAN DRAWER - SIDE DOOR FULL WIDTH
Placing a full width drawer at the sliding door allows easy access to your tools when parked.
This however limits your ability to enter through the sliding door but is still a common orientation as it allows maximum storage while creating a false floor at the front for storage of other equipment.
VAN DRAWER - REAR DOOR FULL WIDTH
Placing a full width drawer at the Rear door allows easy access to your tools when parked.
This however limits your ability to enter through the rear door but is still a common orientation as it allows maximum storage while creating a false floor at the rear for storage of other equipment.
(Shelving options can be installed on top of this false floor)
UTE WITH CANOPY
Within a Ute tub we will maximise the drawer width to suit the exact dimensions between your wheel arches. This ensures you gain maximum storage.
This combination of drawer can be partnered with outriggers including side pockets and side infills to create an enclosed false floor.
Other possibilities include a single narrow drawer allowing open space on one side of the tub. To allow storage for large equipment and tools.
Additional accessories
Drawer Top
We offer 17mm Formply / Carpeted or 5mm Ply / Rubber Tops for your drawer. Carpeted tops prevent tools from scratching and tools can be taken out with minimal effort, while rubber tops provide extra grip to stop tools from moving during transport.
Note: Image shown is for illustrative purposes only.
False Flooring
We can extend the drawer top area to create a false floor. This will allow you to create additional spaces for you to store items. We often support the false floor with a custom frame or outriggers / side infills.
Outriggers
3 side supports installed onto a drawer side (6 for both sides). We cover the outriggers with rubber or carpeted removable lids (as shown). This creates a small storage space in the wheel arch area which can easily be accessed through a canopy window. Often paired with Side Infills. Often used for Ute fitouts.
side infill panels
Often paired with Outriggers, Side infill panels cover off the side drawer area and create a nice presentable look while also creating a small storage space in the wheel arch area. Side Infill Panels are custom made to match the space in between the drawer and the side of the vehicle interior.
Intermittent locking strips
Sold separately from our drawers, Intermittent locking strips does as the name implies. It will allow you to lock your drawer at various point of the drawer pull. The notches (as shown) where the locking mechanism will lie when active.
50mm base frame
For use with Caddy Service Bodies or similar. The Base Frame will give your drawer enough height clearance to properly extend out without interference. Additionally, we can custom size the base frame to add additional products on top such as shelving or CPS drawers.
drawer divides
We can outfit your drawer with internal drawer divides. This will help you further organise your drawer system.
