Hi all. I have noticed most trucks have their garage doors top hindged and not side hindged. Top hindged will allow some rain protection when open but then needs the addition of stays to keep them open. I have seen a few with side hindged doors. This means no gas struts plus you can fit a few attachments to the inside of the door for say saw, axe etc. My question is why are far more top hindged? Is it purely to do with hanging strength or is there another reason? Thanx ..read more

Dear All Hi, I hope you are all doing fine. I hope to start my Roof Lift Box project soon. I need your know how on Legal Dimensions for the box. As far as I know the max width can be 2500mm and total truck height can be 4000mm.. however when I watch some videos like Action Mobil and a few others.. 2470mm..2460mm width I hear a lot and now I question myself why not 2500mm but they make 2470!! Am I safe to build a box width of 2500mm edge to edge? Will be glad to hear your comments. Cheers... Read more ..read more
