When you’re tired of crawling into the back of your van or truck bed to dig for tools, the Weather Guard PACK RAT and BED RAT roll-out drawer units give you instant, waist-height access to everything you own. These ultra-tough, slide-out steel drawers mount securely to the floor or bed of your cargo van, service body, enclosed trailer, or pickup and roll out smoothly on heavy-duty bearings — putting up to 425 lbs of gear per drawer right at your fingertips.
Perfect for electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, mobile mechanics, contractors, and fleet managers who demand fast access, maximum organization, and serious protection for expensive tools in daily commercial use.
Key Features
- 425 lb drawer capacity + 750 lb top/side load rating – built from 14-gauge steel tops/sides and 12-gauge skids for real heavy-duty use
- Full-extension, one-touch roll-out drawers – one-hand operation, even when fully loaded
- BED RAT sliding platform option – pulls the entire drawer toward the tailgate or side door for curbside access
- Anti-skid strips on top + Brite White or Black ARMOR TUF powder coat – safe footing and a clean, professional look that lasts decades
Every PACK RAT and BED RAT unit is overbuilt the Weather Guard way: 14-gauge steel tops and sides support 750 lbs of evenly distributed weight (perfect for kneeling, standing, or stacking material), while 12-gauge steel skids add extreme rigidity and protect the drawer bottom from years of abuse. The drawers themselves glide on maintenance-free, roller-bearing slides that deliver smooth, full-extension travel — no sticking, no binding, even at maximum 425 lb capacity.
The exclusive one-touch latch lets you open or close the drawer with a single hand, and a built-in lock provision accepts an optional padlock for overnight security. Anti-skid strips across the top provide safe traction when you’re stepping or kneeling on the unit, and the entire drawer is finished in Weather Guard’s legendary ARMOR TUF powder coat (choose bright white for vans or black for truck beds) that shrugs off road salt, chemicals, and daily wear.
Multiple lengths and heights are available so you can fit them under tonneau covers, inside van shelving bays, or across the full width of a pickup bed.
