When you hire a roof box, safety and precision matter just as much as extra storage space. At Midlands Roof Box Hire, every fitting is carried out with care, experience, and attention to detail because no two vehicles are the same. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how we ensure roof boxes and bars are fitted securely and safely, every single time.
🚗 Step 1: Vehicle Assessment
Before any equipment is fitted, we assess your vehicle to determine:
✅ Roof type (raised rails, flush rails, fixed points, or bare roof)
✅ Manufacturer guidelines and weight limits
✅ Correct bar length and fitting kit compatibility
This ensures the setup is tailored specifically to your car not a one-size-fits-all approach.
🧰 Step 2: Correct Roof Bars Selection & Installation
Roof bars are the foundation of a safe roof box setup. We:
✅ Use vehicle-specific fitting kits
✅ Position bars at manufacturer-recommended distances
✅ Torque all fixings correctly to prevent movement
Once installed, bars are checked for stability before moving on.
📦 Step 3: Secure Roof Box Fitting
With the bars in place, we fit the roof box by:
✅ Aligning it for even weight distribution ✅ Securing it using internal mounting systems ✅ Locking and testing all fixings
We’ll also show you how to open, close, and lock the box correctly before you drive away.
✅ Step 4: Safety Checks & Advice
Before handing the vehicle back, we carry out final checks including:
✅ Ensuring the roof box is firmly secured
✅ Confirming locks and fittings are fully engaged
✅ Advising on speed limits, height awareness, and loading guidance
We make sure you’re confident and ready for the road.
🛣️ Step 5: Ready to Go
Once everything is fitted and checked, you’re good to go whether it’s for a family holiday, a weekend break, or extra luggage space. When your hire period ends, we’ll remove everything quickly and safely.
