Flatbeds & Canopies
We build custom flatbeds and canopies for any bakkie on the market. Every one is shaped for the vehicle it goes on, because each bakkie is a different size and style.

Workmanship warranty
On your tray and canopy. Whether it is used for work or leisure, we stand behind the product and back it up with after sales service. That is what your investment is buying beyond the way it looks.
Hand built, made to order
The flatbed tray
Everything is modular, so changing or maintaining your vehicle stays easy. The toolboxes, the centre drawer and the floor panels all come out. Trays come standard with modern LED lights, plus built-in spotlights wired either to reverse gear or to a switch in the cab.
The drawer in the middle of the tray is waterproof and locks with a key, and so do the toolboxes behind the wheels.

Custom shaped per model
The standard canopy
A completely TIG welded, custom shaped canopy designed to suit each model vehicle. The aluminium body is laser-cut, bent, and fully TIG welded around a tubular frame with additional interior structure support, which is what makes the canopy chassis strong enough to carry a rack or a tent.

The in-betweener
Dogbox canopy
The perfect balance between enclosed and open packing space. Our dog boxes make sure your furry best friend is able to conquer the outdoors by your side, where they should be.
As with everything else we build, dogboxes are made to your exact requirements — and it does not have to be for an animal. The other side can be fitted with any accessory you want, like your camping fridge.
No roof rack needed
Roof top tent canopies
The roof of the canopy becomes the floor of the tent, so all that gets added is the clamshell roof. That saves you the extra height, the extra weight and the cost of a roof rack.
The tents are built for any season and any condition. Insulated, with extra supports in the roof so fitting a rack or mounting solar panels is safe and easy, and a 7cm high density foam mattress.
