Description:

The Grande Aluminum Storage Box utilizes a fully welded 3mm aluminum body to deliver maximum impact resistance and durability. Unlike hybrid or riveted boxes, this unit features a seamless welded construction that eliminates the need for body seals, ensuring water cannot enter through panel joints even after years of vibration and offroad use.

Designed for a direct fit to the Sprinter rear door gear rack, the box’s compact profile is optimized for exterior storage without obstructing rear visibility. With internal dimensions tailored for essential gear, it securely houses recovery tools, power cords, and camping accessories that are better stored outside the vehicle. The small footprint preserves space on the carrier plate for additional equipment like tire carriers or bike racks.

The door utilizes a continuous rubber seal to create a watertight and dustproof barrier. This effectively blocks high pressure water spray and rain at highway speeds. For security, a robust locking handle keeps the door tightly closed and your gear safe.

FAQ:

1. Will mounting a box this size damage my rear door hinges or cause the door to sag over time?

No, the box weighs only 37 lbs, so it will not damage your hinges. However, please make sure the total weight does not exceed your rack's limit. If you are using our gear rack, the limit is 180 lbs. If you use another brand, please check their specific rating.

2. Does the box obstruct the rear parking sensors or cause the blind spot monitoring system to beep constantly in reverse?

This depends on how high you mount it. If it is mounted too low, it might trigger the sensors. You can fix this by mounting the box higher up or adjusting the angle of your sensors.

3. Is this box compatible with existing Sprinter carrier plates from brands like Owl Vans, Aluminess, or other standard panels?

This depends on the gear rack. Please check the measurements or contact us before purchasing to ensure it fits your setup.

4. Is the weatherproof seal capable of withstanding high pressure car washes and driving rain at highway speeds?

Yes, it is waterproof. The rubber seal keeps water and dust out, even during heavy rain or car washes.

5. Does the box interfere with the rear door opening fully (180° vs 270° hinges) or hitting the side of the van?

This depends on your gear rack settings. After installing, check the door opening angle carefully to make sure the box doesn't hit the side of the van. You may need to install a limit stop on your door hinge or use a check strap to stop the door earlier.

6.How secure is the locking mechanism against theft for high value items?

The box features a secure locking handle system to resist prying, with the option to add secondary padlocks for double security. The aluminum construction further reinforces the unit against forced entry.
