Knaack and Weather Guard Truck Equipment have announced a re-designed Hi-Side truck box and a customized van storage system for the new Nissan NV Commercial Van.
The new features of the Hi-Side product line deliver improved security, durability, and organizational solutions for construction, municipal and field service professionals requiring frequent and easy access to tools and equipment, while keeping the truck bed open for supplies.
An exclusive new gutter design channels rain and snow off the box to keep its contents dry. Along with the full-weather seal, this new gutter improves weather resistance. In addition, new security enhancements include a new Drill-Resistant Lock Core, which further protects against theft and vandalism. An Attachment Point has been added to the rear of each box to secure or lock down tools and supplies in the truck bed.
Hi-Side organization is improved with the addition of a top-mounted, removable parts bin, to keep small parts such as fasteners and components organized inside the box. Quick-release doors now open from 90 degrees to 180 degrees for unrestricted access to tools and equipment.
Hi-Sides are available in a variety of sizes to fit most truck makes and models, from 45.5 in. to 96.25 in. length, and 5.6 to 11.8 cu ft capacity. Other sizes and configurations are also available.
