Adrian Steel Pickup Upgrades: Heavy-Duty Ladder Racks & Toolboxes

If you're looking to upgrade your work truck and turn it into a more efficient vehicle, the best two additions you can make are to add a ladder rack and toolboxes. A ladder rack allows you to free up your truck bed and carry bulky items above, while bed-mounted toolboxes help to organize and protect your important tools and gear. Adrian Steel manufactures heavy-duty ladder racks and toolboxes that will transform your pickup's capabilities and make your job easier.

Adrian Steel Pickup Truck Ladder Racks

Adrian Steel ladder racks are safe and easy to use. Their commitment to helping professionals get the job done shows in the impeccable build quality and durability of their ladder racks and equipment. They offer two main truck racks that will work with toolboxes – the PROFILE™ - HD UTILITY RACK, and the Load Runner Rack.

PROFILE™ - HD UTILITY RACK

Adrian Steel PROFILE UTILITY RACK

The PROFILE™ - HD UTILITY RACK is Adrian Steel's newest offering in the form of a low-profile, aerodynamic rack. The Profile Utility Rack is both lightweight and tough, and its simplistic corrosion-resistant construction ensures years of dependability. The simple design looks good on any truck and was made to reduce wind noise through testing and design. Overall the Profile rack is best suited for those looking for a lightweight and simple rack that can handle cargo capacities of up to 300 lbs.

  • Minimalistic design: sleek and low profile
  • Industry-leading customization: Add ladder stops, rear roller assist, conduit kits and more
  • 300 lb. load capacity: Aluminum crossbars are tested to support up to 150 lbs. per crossbar
Load Runner Ladder Rack

Adrian Steel Load Runner

If you need a ladder rack that can handle extreme payloads – the Load Runner is the rack for you. Its beefy, two-inch tubing provides top-tier weight capacity. The Load Runner is rated for the maximum load allowed by truck manufacturers. It also provides load flexibility, as the rear and middle crossbars can be removed to allow taller items or pallets to be carried in the truck bed.

Additionally, the Load Runner comes with four welded tie-down cleats and full-length top rails with perforated supports to help ensure your cargo is safely secured. The Load Runner is our recommendation for those needing to maximize payload capacity.

  • Weight Capacity exceeds truck bed wall capacity rating
  • Welded tie-down cleats
  • Thick steel tubing

Adrian Steel Toolboxes

Adrian Steel Toolboxes

Now that you've selected your ladder rack, it's time to pair it with toolboxes that'll secure your gear. Adrian Steel offers a variety of toolboxes – including single-lid and double-lid crossboxes as well as sideboxes.

These aluminum toolboxes resist rust, and feature a reinforced "U"-channel edge that adds structural strength to the box while the bulb weather seal helps to protect your gear from water and dirt. Their toolboxes are equipped with two lockable automotive push-button latches that can be opened conveniently when your hands are full.

Adrian Steel boxes come standard with a sliding, divided tray for convenient storage that can be accessible from both sides of the truck. Their metal tool boxes for pickup trucks also come with a full-length rubber liner for the bottom of the box, to keep your tools from sliding around when the vehicle is in motion. Their toolboxes are designed to mount to your truck bed with no-drill brackets for easier installation.

  • Crossboxes and sideboxes available
  • Single-lid and double-lid options for cross boxes
  • Diamond plate aluminum construction resists rust and corrosion

Adrian Steel's toolboxes and ladder racks are designed to be compatible with most late-model trucks, however, you should always consult us as to what will fit your pickup.
