What is a Ute Hard Lid?
A Ute Hard Lid is typically constructed from plastic or fibreglass and is designed to cover the items in your tub. Although there are some strengths to a Hard Lid there are also some major weaknesses which is why we have developed the Utemaster Load-Lid™.

Can I open the tailgate?
Underneath the Load-Lid™ handle, there is a locking plate that is designed to prevent the tailgate from being opened when the Load-Lid™ is shut.
This comes standard on the Load-Lid™ because many modern Ute's do not come with a central locking tailgate, it helps to make your tub more secure.
If you already have a central locking tailgate and do not require this plate, it can be removed for easier access to the tub.
Security
Each lid is supplied with a unique set of keys designed to work with your lid. This means you can securely lock away items in your tub.
Design Registration PCT/NZ2019/050078

Heavy Duty Finish
The 3mm hardwearing aluminium treadplate construction means that you don’t have to worry about damaging your precious hard top! Whether you have a dirty wheelbarrow, lawnmower, ladder, pallet, kayak or mountain bike, the Load-Lid™ will work for you.
The Load-Lid™ comes standard coated in a teflon-based matte black Powdercoat.
Raised Profile
Running out of space in your tub? With the Load-Lid™ there are no intrusions below the top edge of your tub. The unique raised edge profile also adds a staunch appearance, improves rigidity and reduces water pooling.
Water Displacement
A complete automotive bulb seal provides a positive seal against the top of your tub. When the Load-Lid™ is opened water runs off the back of your lid and onto the ground - not into your tub, protecting the tools and equipment you have in your tub.
Full-Length Rain Channel
This is an innovative feature developed to ensure your gear stays dry even when hitting the Sports Bar Lid at high speeds.
The channels re-direct the water hitting the front of the Load-Lid™ along the sides and off the back - Keeping your gear dry.
