Razed Rooftop Boxes lead the way

Razed Products realised that a range of lockable, lightweight Rooftop Boxes would create valuable space on a roof rack, so they set about manufacturing the RSB-1 as a starter and, with its popularity, added the RSB-1M and the RSB-2.

The Rooftop Boxes were developed to include several excellent features that suit 4WDers, tradies and campers who are looking for additional storage space for their gear with security in the form of lockable latches and easy access. These feature-packed cases are perfect for storing your 4WD recovery gear such as snatch straps, winch extensions, EQ straps, shackles, as well as axes or shovels. This means you can keep your wet and muddy gear out of the 4WD and up on your roof rack.

“We wanted to make a proudly Australian-made aluminium storage solution that was lightweight, strong, slimline, weatherproof – plus lockable that was extremely secure via internal fixings,” said Razed Products’ Scott Glover. “We knew about other options for storage out there, but none of them stood out from what we wanted to achieve.

“We didn’t want a plastic box or a chunky RAW aluminium toolbox on our vehicles; or to add too much height which at the time other options were either a lot taller, bulky or just inconvenient to use or access, with straps getting in the way and limiting access and making it hard to get items out when sitting on top of your roof.”

The Rooftop Boxes mount to roof platforms using all stainless-steel hardware including channel nuts, washers and bolts, and they have pre-cut fixing locations to mount in a range of positions and locations on your roof platform. They are lightweight with black powder-coated aluminium construction, the lids are lockable with concealed fixings for security, and they are rubber-sealed and gas-strut supported.

“With our RSB system, we wanted it to be easy to mount to an array of roof rack systems including Rhino Rack, Yakima, Rola Titan, plus others,” explained Scott. “Recently we developed a system to enable mounting to the popular ARB Base Rack, this has been in conjunction with designing and launching other Base Rack solutions based on other items in our product range.”

The RSB-1M expands on the RSB-1 with the new design incorporating external Maxtrax mounts in the lid of the storage box, which adds convenience and leaves more space to store gear inside. This differs from the RSB-1 and features four locating pins that enable you to store up to 4 Maxtrax MkII or XTREMEs inside the case.

The RSB-1 and RSB-1M also include integrated shovel holder points on the front, where you can attach a set of Yakima Ace O’Spades (not included) which allows you to carry your shovel or axe on the side of your storage box.

The RSB-2 is the smaller of the three storage boxes with external dimensions of 950 x 410 x 175mm and a volume of around 60 litres. The RSB-1 has dimensions of 1220 x 430 x 200mm and a volume of approximately 90 litres. The RSB-1M dimensions are 1220 x 430 x 170mm (270mm overall height including the Maxtrax pins) and is approximately 85 litres in volume.
