Urban Survival Gear: DECKED Keeps Your Tools Locked And Loaded
For workmen at hard jobs, on hazardous sites, with harsh conditions ‘surviving the workweek’ takes on a more literal meaning than someone running down the clock in an air-conditioned cubicle. Even in the urban jungle, the jobsite has a treacherous ecosystem all its own and here your tools are your best survival gear. The DECKED Drawer System is going to keep them at your fingertips to ensure you have what you need in a second’s notice.
The DECKED Drawer System is a modular tool system that custom fits into the bed of most mid-size and full-size pickup trucks and cargo vans. The System is molded to fit tightly around the wheel wells of the truck bed and is securely fastened down using J-Hooks. It is fully integrated into the truck bed with no wasted space.
The Drawer System is constructed of extremely durable anti-corrosion treated steel and High-Density Polyethylene. It can take whatever gets thrown at it. It’s also weatherproof, so wherever your truck goes, your tools go. No matter how brutal the surroundings, your survival gear kit is stowed safely inside the drawers. It has a payload of 2000lbs so you don’t need to worry about losing space in your truck bed for hauling. Anything you want to haul you can just throw right on top. Your tools stored in the drawers won’t feel a thing.
The DECKED Drawer System’s ingenious design features two rolling drawers that open out toward the tail gate. Each drawer is mounted onto urethane sealed bearing wheels that roll — not sliders. Sliders have a tendency to warp and bend causing drawers to jam; not these drawers. They roll out smoothly every time and even have detents so they won’t open or close unexpectedly if your truck is stopped on an incline.
The drawers open to reveal a fully integrated modular storage system perfect for stashing all your essential survival gear. Don’t get caught empty-handed on the jobsite. Each drawer has a capacity of 200lbs so you don’t have to be choosy about what tools and equipment you take with you. There’s enough space for you to store everything you might need to see the job through.
The Drawer System makes organization a cinch. No more crates rolling around the bed as you drive to your next mission. Everything stays neatly tucked inside exactly where you placed it and, with drawer locks available, keep it that way. Even when you’re parked your cool survival gear is safe from would-be thieves.
Swapping in and out boxes and organizers is a breeze and saves you from the backbreaking task of lugging heavy bins in awkward positions. Save your body for the work on site and don’t get taken out by wrestling with your tools. The drawers bring the tools to you, so you don’t have to reach for them.
Once you start playing the tetris game of personalizing your layout you’ll discover how truly optimal your Drawer System can be. The DECKED Accessories allow you to customize the configuration using various components each with their own unique functions. The accessories like the Crossbox and D-Box let you store tools in an accessible, organized fashion. The D-Bag is your go to versatile bag for jobs that take you from the truck to traveling on foot. These accessories make storing tools incredibly efficient, but you’ll see they can take you further than just tool storage.
Now that we can see how we’ve survived the workweek, let’s see how the DECKED Drawer System can take you from city grind into the wilderness. DECKED let’s you swap your city survival tools with your wilderness survival gear.
