Weather Guard, a leader in work truck equipment, has introduced 38 new saddle and lo-side tool boxes featuring a modern look and advanced technology, using a high-security locking system, sloping lid, and PowerSync compatibility.
To help streamline end-users day-to-day tasks, the new Weather Guard Saddle and Lo-Side Boxes use a new push lock, the new 1Key Ultralock.
It combines superior break-in protection with one key simplicity, allowing one key to work across all truck boxes. It also enables distributors to serve customers faster with no extended lead times for special fleet orders.
The 1Key Ultralock provides a high level of security, such as a six-plate tumbler that prevents picking and bumping, and a large cylinder for added defense. The automotive-grade, weather-resistant shutter also helps protect the lock against damage from the elements
The new Saddle and Lo-Side Boxes feature a sleek design with a sloped lid reinforced with a 0.9 aluminum channel, which increases security by fortifying the box and helps prevent break-ins through lid damage.
The lid is easier to use, featuring optimized latching systems and requiring less force to close. In addition, all Saddle and Lo-Side truck tool boxes now feature enhanced tie-down buckles offering larger clearance for universal or multiple straps.
All Weather Guard boxes arrive pre-drilled, simplifying installation for distributors and end-users, and features a powder coat finish for lasting durability and reliability.
The truck storage boxes are compatible with the company’s innovative PowerSync Technology, a family of state-of-the-art accessories that enhance the boxes to a fully-integrated vehicle storage solution. This includes an assortment of coming soon accessories including: enhanced PowerSync Interior truck box Lights and Remote Keyless Entry.
The updated PowerSync lights feature a long-life LED, 160o full box coverage, and reduced glare for optimal visibility. An automatic switch only powers on when the truck box is open, saving energy and power. Automotive-grade connectors offer professional-grade protection from dust and water while impact-resistant housing guards against bumps and rough terrain. The interior truck box lights feature a quick connect, easy install wire harness, and take no more than 30 minutes to configure.
End users can easily access the truck tool boxes with PowerSync’s Remote Keyless Entry. Not only can the remote control up to three boxes on the same key FOB, but it can also open truck boxes from as far as 25 feet away to eliminate the hassle of using keys. For increased durability, an automotive-grade actuator and controller are designed to resist weather conditions.
The new Saddle and Lo-Side truck boxes are now available nationally.
