Cargo safety and security are two of the most important concerns for individuals who own and drive utes on the Gold Coast. Whether they use their trucks for professional business, or for personal use, or even if they’re just enthusiasts, these truck owners recognise the rugged nature of the road and the possible detriment it might afford their chosen cargo. To address this, most people tend to purchase tonneau covers to keep their valuables in the back secure. By far, the most popular and the most affordable tonneau covers are the rollover or folding covers. These are typically foldable vinyl covers than are installed on top of the tub, sealing it completely. You either fold these out or roll them back to get to your cargo. Most of the time, truck owners will agree that these foldable covers are enough to protect your cargo from the elements and would-be thieves, but for those who need a little better protection and are committed to invest a little more to ensure the security of their cargo, hard tonneau covers offer a much better option.

There are a ton of variety when it comes to hard tonneau cover types. There are a multitude of ways of how accessibility can be expressed: from hard folding types, to hinge style covers, to retractable covers—the choice is up to the individual. But don’t let the variety distract you from your main concern: security. Most ute or truck owners agree that the material used to make these hard tonneau covers is just as, if not more important than the way they open or close.

This is where the inexperienced buyer might make their mistake; because most ready-made hard tonneau covers are just passable in quality. It’s a good thing that Hunter Canvas only works with the highest quality in manufactured and imported vinyl to make custom-tailored tonneau covers. Our on-hand top trades people will make sure that each tonneau cover is fitted and installed to suit your vehicle—so that not only will you be investing in security, but peace of mind as well.
