UTE Canopies and Trays

Heavy‑duty UTE canopies and trays designed for real Australian work conditions, built to suit your vehicle, payload, and the way you use it every day.

Who this is for?

This product is ideal for tradespeople, fleet operators, and owners who rely on their UTE as a primary work tool. It suits anyone who needs secure, organised storage, dependable load‑carrying, and a canopy or tray layout that is purpose‑built for their equipment and working environment.

Superior Qualities

Allweld’s UTE canopies and trays are built for real work in Australian conditions. We focus on strong, reliable construction, tidy fabrication, and layouts that make day‑to‑day use more efficient and less frustrating.
Each canopy and tray is measured and built to suit the specific vehicle and payload, rather than relying on one‑size‑fits‑all solutions. From weld quality and hardware selection through to water and dust management, we pay attention to the details that affect long‑term performance.
The result is a UTE setup that feels solid, organised, and dependable, whether it’s under a tradesperson using it every day, a fleet vehicle shared across multiple crews, or a dual‑purpose work and recreational setup.

Customisable Options

Because every UTE is used differently, each canopy and tray can be configured around the tools, equipment, and loads you actually carry. We work with you to understand how you use the vehicle and then design storage and access points that support that routine.
Customisation options include full and half canopies, custom drawer systems, shelves and compartments, underbody toolboxes, fuel and water provisions, roof platforms, ladder racks, and side access doors or hatches.
Finishing touches such as central locking, powder coated colours, additional tie‑downs, and accessory mounts can be added to align with fleet standards or personal preferences, giving you a setup that feels purpose‑built rather than improvised.

Materials and construction

We fabricate UTE canopies and trays using appropriate combinations of steel and aluminium to balance strength, weight, and corrosion resistance. Each build is measured against the vehicle and designed to support the expected loads, attachment points, and working conditions.
Fabrication, assembly, and finishing are carried out in‑house, allowing us to maintain consistent quality and ensure that doors, drawers, and hardware operate smoothly. Attention is given to water management, dust control, and secure closure so the setup stays reliable over time.

Compliance and standards

Designs that consider load distribution, mounting methods, and attachment points for safe use
Options for correct relocation of lights and number plates to maintain legal visibility
Ability to align canopy and tray setups with your internal fleet and safety requirements

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you build the canopy and tray to suit how I use my UTE?

Yes. We start by understanding what you carry, how you access it, and where the vehicle is used. From there, we design the canopy and tray layout around your tools, equipment, and load requirements, rather than forcing you into a generic setup.

Do you work on both single vehicles and fleets?

We can build a one-off canopy and tray for a single vehicle or develop a standard layout that can be rolled out across a fleet. A consistent design helps drivers move between vehicles without having to relearn where everything is stored.

Can my existing tub or tray be removed and replaced?

In many cases we remove the factory tub or tray and replace it with a purpose-built tray and canopy combination. We assess the vehicle, mounting points, and intended payload to ensure the new setup is properly supported and suited to your use.

What materials do you use for canopies and trays?

We use appropriate combinations of steel and aluminium to balance strength, weight, and corrosion resistance. The exact materials are chosen based on the vehicle, payload, and operating environment so the setup performs well over the long term.

Can you add electrical features like central locking or lighting?

Yes. We can integrate features such as central locking for doors and toolboxes, internal lighting, and provisions for future accessories. We will discuss electrical options with you during the design stage so they are planned into the build.
