Looking for Ute Drawers? Here’s a Smarter Storage Solution
If you’re Googling “ute drawers,” chances are you’re chasing better storage, more organisation, and less chaos in the back of your ute. And you’re not alone. Whether you’re a tradie, camper, or weekend warrior, getting your tools, camping gear, or equipment sorted with the right drawer system makes every job (or trip) easier.
But here’s the thing: traditional ute drawers aren’t your only option anymore.
At 3D Pro Melbourne, we’ve designed a smarter way to store, stack and access everything in your canopy, tray, or service body. Our Pack A Shelf system and sliding storage solutions offer more flexibility, better functionality, and are easier to install, move and adapt—no full false floor or permanent fit-outs needed.
What Are Ute Drawers (and What’s the Problem with Most)?
Standard ute drawers are usually fixed drawer units installed under a false floor in your tray or canopy. While they look tidy and hide a fair bit of gear, they come with some trade-offs:
-
Bulky and often waste valuable storage space
-
Limited access to larger items or odd-shaped tools
-
Expensive and usually non-adjustable
-
Often need professional installation
If you’ve got a Nissan Navara, Mitsubishi Triton, or other popular dual cab, you may have already run into compatibility issues trying to match up storage drawers or custom accessories to your setup.
The Smarter Drawer System: Pack A Shelf by 3D Pro Melbourne
Instead of locking yourself into a permanent setup, Pack A Shelf gives you a modular, stackable, and expandable shelving and drawer system that grows with your gear and your needs.
✅ More Flexibility, Same Tough Build
Made from high-quality steel and engineered for the harsh Aussie climate, Pack A Shelf is designed to withstand worksite abuse, bush bashing, and everything in between. Need to rearrange your setup? No problem—just unbolt, slide, and reconfigure. You won’t get that kind of ease or functionality from a traditional drawer system.
✅ Designed for Easy Access
No more crawling over your gear to reach what’s shoved behind the wheel arches. Our sliders and shelving units give you easy access to everything—from spare parts and toolboxes to your full camping gear setup.
✅ Better Use of Storage Space
Our design gives you multiple compartments, adjustable shelf heights, and stacking drawer units that can be tailored to your specific storage needs. You’re not stuck with a one-size-fits-none solution—you create your own system.
Is This Just for Tradies? Nope.
While our system was built with tradies and service body vehicles in mind, it’s become just as popular with tourers, 4WDers, and anyone needing to organise their camping equipment and vehicle accessories on the go.
It’s ideal for:
-
4WD drawers alternative setups
-
Dual cab utes
-
Touring rigs with roof racks, nudge bars, or bull bars
-
Modular storage in your canopy or under a tonneau cover
-
And yes—even desk space or camp kitchens on the go
