Weatherguard diamond-tread aluminum truck boxes sport retractable locks for added tamper resistance and an internal torque ring that eliminates many common keyhole break-ins. Covers open a full 90 for loading and unloading. The Saddle Box design minimizes clearance required for the cover to open 90, useful when mounting the box in conjunction with a ladder rack. Boxes are weather sealed on all 4 sides under lids. When truck-bed rails are required for mounting, a wide-flange mounting bracket is provided for crimp-free/drill-free installations. Latch design, enclosed in aluminum to protect against shifting loads, provides one touch opening for a worker carrying tools. Other features include a holder for storage of 48-in. levels and a steel tray for smaller tools and accessories. Tray locks to either side of box during transport or slides out of the way to provide access to tools. A 12-v. electrical access grommet comes standard for electrical accessory up-fits. Choose from five stylessaddle, cross, side, pork chop, and all purposethat fit most full and compact pickups. Configure boxes alone, in sets, or with other Weatherguard equipment such as ladder racks and Pack Rat drawer units. Choose clear or black Armor-Tuf powder coat finish. Optional accessories include soft-sided tool bag and rubber box liners. Company makes a complete line of truck and van equipment, including shelving, cabinets, and racks for full- size and compact pickups, vans, and utility vehicles, as well as jobsite storage equipment, including storage chests, work stations, rolling work benches, and hand tool boxes.
