ABOUT OUR TRUCKVAULTS....
SPECS
WHAT IS THE TRUCKVAULT MADE FROM?
TruckVault Products are manufactured from Medium Density Overlay (MDO). This is the same material you may recognize from its use as highway sign board.
HOW DOES MDO COMPARE WITH METAL?
Metal is heavier. Distinct advantages of TruckVault Products include the fact that MDO does not attract moisture, allowing you to store firearms, cameras and other sensitive valuables for long periods of time with much less risk than one would encounter using metal or plastic materials. MDO is a silent partner in your vehicle, no banging or rattling.
CAN I HAUL HEAVY ITEMS ON MY TRUCKVAULT?
The top surface is 5/8 inch MDO, which is as strong as the floor in your home. Essentially, you can haul anything you can load on top of your TruckVault. The top surface can easily support as much as 2000 lbs. or more.
IS MY STANDARD TRUCKVAULT WATER-PROOF?
No. Your standard TruckVault was designed to install internally in your SUV or, in the case of a pickup truck, with a canopy or cover. Spilled water will have little effect on your TruckVault, however.
DO YOU MAKE A WATER-PROOF TRUCKVAULT?
TruckVault manufactures the Extreme Series All-Weather TruckVault. Under most circumstance the Extreme Series All-Weather TruckVault is waterproof. The entirety of this unit is wrapped in waterproof Line-X protective liner, while the drawer closures are protected by rubber bulb seal. The All-Weather TruckVault series is available for pickup trucks and open vehicles such as the H-2 SUT.
INSTALL
HOW HARD IS IT TO INSTALL MY NEW TRUCKVAULT?
Over the years, TruckVault products have been installed by thousands of sportsmen and agencies. Your TruckVault comes fully assembled except where components must be joined. In these cases, pieces are joined with machine screws into machine receivers. Considering TruckVault products are large, we suggest two people be involved in the initial install. Installation in a Suburban takes minutes while a full-size pickup truck unit may require most of an hour.
CAN MY TRUCKVAULT BE REMOVED?
Indeed it can. Many TruckVault users do remove them from time to time. It seems the biggest issue is, "Where do I put all of the stuff I stored in my TruckVault?".
