We spent six months travelling and used plastic crates to store our gear in our canopy. However, we found it challenging, especially when moving crates about. So, after we returned, we reached out to GWorks in Port Macquarie, who fabricated our canopy, to ask about having them make drawers to house our equipment. We are delighted with the final outcome.
Next to our Bushman fridge, we've decided on a single drawer that incorporates a sliding table with a drawer measuring 520 width x 830 deep x 300 mm in height.
The driver's side of the canopy house's two single drawers, each measuring 670 width x 815 deep x 300 mm in height.
We've also incorporated a drop shelf above the drawers for extra storage for flat items like our water bladder and yabby nets, and our Stone Stomper is stored here as well until it's required.
The drawers are all made using 3mm 5052-grade aluminium with 225kg heavy-duty drawer slides, and the drawer tops have integrated tie-down points.
Apart from having key lockable compression locks, the drawers are a modular design system allowing individual drawers to be removed or relocated inside the canopy. The three drawers also have powder-coated faceplates.
