Supply & Fitment

Tarpaulins supplied and fitted to your vehicle

Buying a tarpaulin is only half the job. A cover that is not fitted and tensioned correctly flaps, chafes and tears within weeks. We install what we manufacture, so the fit is our responsibility.

Installations we carry out

  • Truck tarpaulin installation
  • Trailer and superlink covers
  • Flatbed and drop-side tarps
  • Tautliner curtain fitment
  • Tipper cover installation
  • Rope, strap and eyelet systems
  • On-site measuring
  • Fleet fitment programmes
  • Replacement cover fitting

On-Site Measuring

We measure deck length, width, drops and fixing points on the vehicle so the finished cover fits without stretching or slack.

Correct Tensioning

Covers are fitted and tensioned so wind cannot lift or flap the panel — the single biggest cause of premature tarpaulin failure.

Fixing Hardware

Eyelets, rope pockets, D-rings, buckles and straps positioned to suit your tie-down points and the way your drivers actually load.

Fleet Rollouts

Scheduled batch installations so only a portion of the fleet is off the road at any time, with standardised specifications across vehicles.

Driver Handover

We show the crew how the cover is meant to be secured and folded, which materially extends its service life.

Aftercare

If a cover is damaged in service it can be repaired and refitted rather than replaced, provided the fabric is still sound.

Manufacture & Installation

New Truck Tarpaulin, Made & Fitted

We manufacture truck tarpaulins to your exact deck size and install them on your truck or trailer — tensioned, eyeleted and ready to load. Send your dimensions on WhatsApp for pricing.

1. Measure

Send your deck dimensions, drops and vehicle or trailer type — or we measure on site.

2. Manufacture

Your tarpaulin is cut, welded and reinforced to spec in UV-stabilised PVC.

3. Install

We fit the tarpaulin to your truck, tension it and check every fixing point.

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you install the tarpaulin on my truck?+

Yes. Installation is part of what we do. We fit new truck tarpaulins, tautliner curtains and tipper covers to trucks and trailers, tension them correctly and check every eyelet, rope pocket and fixing point before the vehicle leaves.

Can you measure my truck for me?+

Yes. If you are in Johannesburg or greater Gauteng we can measure the deck, drops and fixing points on site so the tarpaulin fits first time. Elsewhere, send your measurements and photographs on WhatsApp.

How long does a tarpaulin installation take?+

A standard truck or trailer tarpaulin fitment is usually completed in a single visit. Fleet installations are scheduled in batches so only part of the fleet is off the road at a time.

Do you install tarpaulins for whole fleets?+

Yes. Fleet supply and installation programmes are standard work for us, including standardised specifications so replacement covers are consistent across every vehicle.

What does a truck tarpaulin cost in South Africa?+

Price depends on deck size, drops, material weight and finishing. Send your dimensions and vehicle type on WhatsApp and we will revert with a quotation covering supply and installation.
