Canopies
Our high-quality locally made canvas canopies are the ideal way to protect your cargo from the elements while maximising storage space and flexibility.
Our sleek canopy designs mean minimal sacrifice to the space left in your tray, unlike fiberglass, molded & steel canopies which eat into your luggage/tool space.
They’re also more flexible, so If you need to carry bulky items, the canvas and alloy canopy can be easily removed in 15 minutes, or in some cases longer loads or wide items can fit within the canopy simply by rolling up the canvas.
Being fully enclosed, canopies are a great way to make sure loose object don’t fly out of your ute, saving you time tying down loose items, or covering everything with a net. Not to mention the potential fines for uncovered loads. Simply unzip the opening to load and unload tools, shopping, luggage, and bulky items like prams.
Even a bike can be quickly and easily loaded into the ute ready to head out. Our high-quality canvas canopies aren’t just popular with tradies, they’ve been embraced by families, adventurers, and grey nomads, thanks to how easy they make everyday life.
Hardtop Canopies with Roofracks
One of the most loved features of our canopies is their tough tops.
Our hardtop canopies mean more durability and the ability to carry supplies above the canopy. Tradies love the ability to tie down timbers, pipes and building materials, while adventurers frequently load kayaks, bikes, skis and adventure gear. You can even attach a roof top tent to our functional hard top canopies!
When it comes to the finer detail, we can use either 30mm or 40mm alloy to ensure the roof racks on your canopy line up with the existing roof racks on your ute allowing you to carry longer loads more safely. Our hardtop canopy design gives you the flexibility of uni-track or platform roofracks.

Our Design and Build Process
1
Decide whether the canopy will be mounted to a tub or tray. If you’d like to switch out your tub, we can arrange a genuine tray install for you at the same time as your canopy installation.
2
We’ll send you a measuring list, you send it back with the dimensions, or if your local and you prefer, you can drop in and we’ll measure up for you.
Decide on canopy type, powder coating colour, & fly screens.
3
We build your canopy in our Hunter Valley workshop. We construct the metal frame and sew the canvas in-house to ensure the highest quality canopy.
4
Your choice – Full service, or you install. Time to pay the balance and get the goods. If you want us to install, you head to the Hunter Valley for the day. We’ll ensure your canopy is installed within the day.
5
Enjoy the flexibility of our fantastic canopies for every-day use, camping, adventures and travel!
Thanks to our years of experience, we've created patterns for the most common ute types and trays, meaning we can create your custom canopy without having to keep your ute for extended periods of time. *The pre-make and freight service is only available for common makes, models and genuine tray types.
