• What materials are used in the Series X3 canopy?

  L&G Chivalry’s Series X3 canopy is built from marine-grade 5052 aluminium in 3 mm to 5 mm flat plates, providing greater strength and durability than thinner alternatives. This alloy is well known for its corrosion resistance, making it ideal for vehicles that face coastal exposure, wet weather or off-road use. It is also more lightweight compared to steel, which helps reduce overall vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency.

• What makes the Series X3 canopy so versatile?

  The Series X3 canopy is versatile because it is designed around a modular uni-strut load-bearing system, which allows you to adapt the interior to different needs over time. This system supports drawers, shelves, dividers and other accessories without requiring permanent modifications, making it ideal for both work and recreational use. The canopy’s flush flooring also contributes to its versatility, as it provides a smooth, even base for any fit-out. Many customers begin with a shell and gradually add features, creating a tailored setup that evolves as their needs change.

• How are storage and organisation handled?

  The Series X3 canopy's storage and organisation are handled through a customisable interior that can be tailored to your exact requirements. Its uni-strut framework allows you to add shelving units, drawer slides and tray-combo options, giving you structured storage for tools, equipment or camping gear. The design also accommodates multiple compartments, which can be arranged to separate heavy-duty items from smaller essentials.

• What security and access features are included?

  The L&G Chivalry Series X3 canopy is fitted with whale-tail compression locks, designed to provide secure closure and reduce the risk of tampering. These locks apply firm pressure to the doors, improving both security and weather sealing. Inside, reinforced hinges and seals help protect tools and gear from dust, moisture and theft attempts. The canopy doors are gas-strut-assisted, allowing them to open smoothly and remain in place without needing to be held. This makes loading and unloading faster, safer and hands-free, whether you’re on the worksite or at a campsite.

• How durable is the Series X3 canopy?

  The Series X3 canopy is built for long-term durability. Constructed from marine-grade aluminium alloy, it delivers excellent resistance to corrosion and impact, making it suitable for both harsh worksites and off-road environments. Weather and dust seals help protect your tools and equipment from exposure to the elements, while a reinforced alloy frame adds stability in high winds and heavy rain. For extra protection, the canopy can also be finished with a durable powder coat, creating a hard-wearing surface that resists scratches and everyday wear.
