Custom built Aluminium Treadplate Toolboxes

The design guru’s at Barry’s Metal Works have come up with patterns to suit almost any work ute application. These boxes were made for one of our regular clients in May of 2009. The Landcruiser was left with our designer to achieve maximum storage space under the tray. Patterns were developed for laser cutting to minimise folding and welding and the Metal Works Department took care of the fabrication.

Custom Built Domestic Benchtops

This stainless steel benchtop was fabricated from laser cut patterns, complete with two, large, hand-formed stainless bowls.  Through working closely with our customers, BMW does a site visit to determine the exact requirements of our customers and take accurate dimensions to ensure we install a top quality product that achieves total customer satisfaction.

The Hilux Workmate Toolbox

Storage boxes for the ever popular Toyota Work Mate mounted neatly under the tray, behind the driver for convenient storage which fits snug against the mudguard for maximum use of space.  These are made from robust, 2.5mm Aluminium treadplate for durability rather than the thinner quality you will find in other products.  These are kept in stock and ready to purchase for your convenience.  Also added to the vehicle photographed here, is a safety mesh screen, welded in place behind the cab.
