Commercial Truck Caps - Choosing the One That’s Right for You
Dec 7 2021
You know that commercial truck caps will be a good investment—but, when you look at the options, you might not know which ones are best. To help, this post will guide you through the selection process. Plus, the Action Car and Truck Accessories team is ready to help contractors and tradesmen like you to pick the commercial truck cap that’s just right for your needs, configured with exactly the right options.
Benefits of the Commercial Truck Cap
These caps (also called pickup toppers and camper shells among other names) cover your pickup truck bed to provide security for your cargo, tools, and equipment, and also offer protection from the weather. (Unlike tonneau covers, these commercial truck caps also allow you to transport large and tall items.) Plus, some studies suggest that you can improve aerodynamics—and therefore fuel efficiency—by enclosing the back of your truck bed.
Quality ones offer a range of options that allow you to uniquely customize your choices—with aluminum commercial truck caps, fiberglass ones, and plastic/composite ones being the most commonly used.
Although many people consider these caps to be work truck accessories (and they are!), you can also benefit by adding a commercial truck cap when you want to transport items to enjoy your hobbies: skis, camping equipment, boating equipment, and much more.
Fiberglass Commercial Truck Caps
This material can be one of the best ways to customize the look of your truck in aesthetically pleasing ways while enjoying all the benefits described above. They’re able to handle the tough wear and tear associated with your work and play.
Aluminum Commercial Truck Caps
Aluminum options are more lightweight while still coming with all the work truck accessories you’ll want and need, including double doors, strong lockable toolboxes, rugged shelving, and much more.
