Utes are the most versatile and powerful vehicles loved by tradies and farmers everywhere. These cars perform remarkably on highways as well as on rough terrains.

A custom toolbox can be a useful addition to improve the functionality of your work vehicle. You can increase the storage capability of the truck and having a customised tray means the tools are organised exactly the way you want. Manufacturers of custom ute trays in Brisbane and across the Gold Coast and surrounding areas offer the option to include as many drawers or racks as you want in the tool box. The added flexibility is helpful for enhanced access to  odd-shaped tools and equipment. There are a variety of tool boxes available in the market. The customisation sector is growing at a whopping speed. From material options to design and configuration, the choices for customisation are endless, so how do you decide where to invest?

Considering a few points before investment will help youmake the most informed decision. Read this post until the end if you want a greater return on investment. We These are the key things to consider when ordering custom tool boxes on the Gold Coast.

1. Size and shape: There are undertray tool boxes, low profile tool boxes and high side tool boxes with fully open and 3/4^th open doors. Some profiles are very sleek and lightweight and are compatible with the most popular models of Utes. Those who want a hassle-free customisation, can shop for  stock or prefabricated tool boxes. For specific storage requirements, there are options to tweak around the size specifications, enabling you tocraft a unique tool box right from scratch. When opting for a fully customisable design, make sure to consult with the experts about functionality and value for money.

1. Material: A standard high-side tool box offers the benefits of increased storage as well as maximised space. Aluminium and steel are the two popular material choices for such high-side ute tool boxes in South East Queensland. However, the aluminium tool boxes weigh around 48kgs whereas steel fabrication is heavier and the finished steel product would add 65kgs of additional weight to your vehicle. Consider the weight factor whenchoosing the most suitable material for  customisation.

1. Flexibility: Some tool boxes are equipped with drawer units for easy access, whereas some of the latest models are designed with height adjustable shelves. Keep your working conditions in mind while making the decision. For frequent access to  oddly shaped items, a customisable storage unit makes more sense.

1. Longevity: When investing in a powder coated tool box, make sure to check the unit is fully coated inside and out to ensure superior performance against rust. Pay attention to the hinges, they should be hidden and must be fabricated from rust proof material. Consider checking the seams, they should be welded professionally to resist dust and water.

Product dimensions are the key concerns for most tradies during customisation. However, keep the additional weight, functionality and longevity in mind to make the most out of your investment.
