The Decked Drawer System is a rugged, secure, and highly functional storage solution designed for truck beds and vans. Built with durability in mind, it offers a weatherproof, lockable, and customizable organization system for tools, gear, and other essentials.
Highlights
Durability & Weather Resistance
The Decked Drawer System is made from high-density polyethylene and reinforced with a steel subframe, making it highly durable. It’s resistant to harsh weather conditions, ensuring that stored items remain dry and secure.
Ergonomic & Efficient Organization
The system provides well-structured drawers that make accessing tools and gear more efficient compared to traditional truck bed storage. It helps keep everything organized and easy to retrieve without the need for climbing into the truck bed.
High Weight Capacity & Versatile Use
The system supports up to 2,000 lb on top, allowing full use of the truck bed for additional cargo while keeping the drawers functional. This makes it ideal for contractors, outdoorsmen, and overlanders who need secure storage without sacrificing hauling capacity and “traditional truck bed” use.
Things to Know
Limited Drawer Space for Taller Items
While the system is great for organizing smaller tools and gear, the drawer depth can be restrictive for storing taller or bulkier items. Being thoughtful of storage strategies for all your required gear on a road trip beyond the Decked system is key.
Installation & Removal
Although it is a very well-engineered system, the installation process can be a little time-consuming and require a bit of DIY precision. In my experience, it’s not intended to be frequently installed and removed and is best left in place.
Higher Price Point
The Decked system is a premium product, and its price reflects that. While the quality is undeniable, a more budget-friendly option or additional accessories included in the simplified “base package” would make it more accessible to a wider audience.
Final Thoughts
The Decked Drawer System is a top-tier truck bed storage solution that offers durability, security, and excellent organization. As a passionate bird hunter who pursues numerous species across multiple states each season, it’s been a solid solution to help keep gear organized, protected, and secure. I’ve strapped down multiple kennels, stacked coolers, and stuffed all sorts of gear into the drawers while putting it to the test over the years. While it comes with a few limitations, such as drawer depth vs a traditional truck topper, its benefits outweigh the drawbacks for those looking for a long-term, heavy-duty storage system while maintaining the use of a traditional “truck bed.”
