Feldon Shelter’s very own built in ErgoCell dual stage mattress comfortably fits two people with enough room to stretch out. There’s nothing like a soft, dry and flat bed to lay on after a long day behind the wheel. You can kiss goodbye those restless nights spent sleeping on rocks and roots.

LOW PROFILE BUT HIGHLY CUSTOMIZABLE


We’ve teamed up with Front Runner Outfitters to offer tent mounted rack options that let you bring all your essentials along for the ride. There’s a whole host of tie down, load securing and gear mounting accessories available.

Upgradable Marine Grade 316 Gas Struts allow up to 35kg of gear to be stored on top whilst unfolding and at camp. This means less time taking gear on and off and more time enjoying yourself. The modular design doesn’t stop there with multiple accessory mounting T-Tracks featured around the entire perimeter of the aluminium shell, for mounting awnings, camp lights and more.

ROOF RACK & VEHICLE REQUIREMENTS


Roof Rack Requirements: 3-Bar Roof Rack System OR Roof Platform with a minimum of 6 Mounting Points to your vehicles roof.

The spacing between the front & rear roof rack (or for roof platforms, the front & rear mounting points) should be no less than 900mm.

Vehicle Requirements: Both your vehicle & roof rack system require a minimum dynamic load rating of 100kg.

The Hawk's Nest range of rooftop tents is well suited to larger SUV's, 4x4's and vans.

A quick note for most Double Cab Utes: A load capable canopy with suitable canopy mounted roof racks (or platform) is generally required. The tent cannot be mounted both to the utes cab and canopy/tray at the same time, due to their individual flex on the chassis. The ute cab itself also usually does not offer enough mounting length.

Good news! If you require suitable roof racks, we stock and install most leading brands. For all roof rack and vehicle questions, feel free to get in touch with us here.
