Hard Shell Truck Caps

Faqs

Are hard-shell truck caps waterproof?

They’re water-resistant, with bulb seals that reduce water and dust. No cap fully seals the bed; minor intrusion can happen, often at the tailgate.

Can I remove the cap by myself?

You can remove it, but plan for two people because of size and weight.

Will it work with my bed liner?

Yes for most liners. Measure your bed length and match year/make/model when you order.

Can I paint-match my cap?

Current OVS and Westin caps on the site ship in black powder-coat; no paint-match option is listed on their product pages. Paint-matched finishes are common on fiberglass caps from other brands, but not in this lineup.

Are these more secure than a soft folding tonneau cover?

Yes. You get lockable doors and enclosed storage. Lock your tailgate for better protection.

Can I carry gear on top of the cap?

Yes; when you use the integrated rails + rated crossbars. Published capacities: OVS crossbars ~325 lb dynamic / 750 lb static; Westin EXP 300 lb dynamic / 700 lb static. Always check your specific model.

Upgrade your truck with our Hard Shell Truck Cap built for protection, storage, and versatility. It’s perfect if you’re heading to the job site, the campsite, or just running errands. 

You can choose from strong, reliable materials like aluminum, fiberglass, or steel to match your lifestyle. Many models include sliding windows and built-in LED lighting for added convenience.

Looking for even more utility? Add roof racks for extra cargo space or mount a rooftop tent for your next adventure. You can also customize your cap with color-matching paint and insulated interiors for comfort and style.

Hard Shell Truck Caps are perfect for professionals, outdoor lovers, or anyone who needs more from their truck bed. For seasonal flexibility, some owners pair them with a tri-fold soft tonneau cover for different hauling setups throughout the year.
