Ute trays
A standard tray layout may leave your tools, loads or storage in the wrong place. We build aluminium flat decks to your cab chassis, with the headboard, drop sides, tie-down rails and under-tray boxes arranged around your working day.

04 / The practical details
Questions about aluminium ute trays.
Do you fit the tray to the ute?
Yes. The tray is mounted to the chassis with proper mounts, and tail lights, number-plate light and mudguards are fitted so it is road-ready.
Aluminium or steel tray?
Aluminium keeps weight down and never rusts, which suits most trades and farm utes. Steel is stronger for very heavy or abusive loads and we build both.
Can you add a tray to a wellside ute?
Yes. We remove the wellside tub and build a tray to the cab chassis, keeping the original lights and reversing sensors where possible.
