If you're looking for a reliable and affordable way to transport your belongings, consider a canopy or tray from Rod's Engineering and Lifetime Trailers. We offer a wide range of tray sizes and styles to suit your needs and our experienced team can help you choose the right option for your vehicle.
A canopy is a type of roof, usually made from canvas or other waterproof material, that is attached to the back of a vehicle. We offer a range of canopies including chassis mounted options. This provides extra storage space for your belongings, as well as protection from the elements. A tray is a flat surface that is attached to the back of a vehicle, used for carrying larger items or for extra storage space. We offer drop-down tailgates and sides for easy loading and unloading.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are trays?
Custom aluminium trays are designed to increase the load area of your vehicle, helping to transport a wide range of items. Thanks to drop-down tailgates and sides, you’ll also find it much easier to both unload and load your vehicle. If you’ve got heavy and bulky items to haul, it’s important to have multiple locations where you can strap them in. Custom trays offer this option. Not only does an aluminium tray make better use of your vehicle space, but it also enhances safety while transporting goods and increases the functionality of your vehicle.
What are canopies?
A canopy is a structure, usually made from aluminium, that covers the bed of a truck or trailer. Doubling the versatility of a trailer, you can add a touch of style to your vehicle with a canopy. However, many vehicle owners actually use canopies to increase the security of their loads and protect their vehicles from harsh weather conditions.

Why get a custom aluminium tray or canopy?
Customise your aluminium tray or canopy to increase load capacity and to add protection to your vehicle. Not only are they easy to install and maintain, but with a custom aluminium tray, you can secure your tools and items. Whether you’re an electrician, plumber, builder, or in another manual profession—a vehicle that has ample tray space offers a range of advantages including increased practicality to more storage and cabin capacity. With a custom canopy, on the other hand, your vehicle will be better protected against vandalism and theft and you’ll have protection against harsh chemicals and bad weather. As well as providing some much-needed shade, custom canopies are available for almost any type of vehicle.
