Application Guide
Overland camping storage hardware.
Overland and camping storage builds need hardware that can handle repeated access, vehicle movement, compact space, and changing loads. COREAX drawer slides and folding brackets support cargo trays, camp kitchen boxes, fold-down prep surfaces, and utility storage.
Application fit
Use locking drawer slides for cargo trays, gear drawers, and fridge pull-outs. Use folding brackets when a prep table, side shelf, or work surface needs support while open and low-profile storage while closed.
What to check
Separate the modules before choosing the hardware
An overland storage system may combine long cargo drawers, a fridge tray, recovery-gear access, fixed water or electrical equipment, and a fold-down prep surface. Each module should be assigned its own moving load, restraint method, clearance envelope, mounting structure, and service route. Not every item needs to slide, and not every work surface should share the drawer frame.
Use the overland drawer system guide for module architecture. Use truck system planning when the build sits in a pickup bed, and follow the folding-surface path for camp tables or side shelves. Heavy drawers should then continue through load, length, clearance, locking, and release checks.
What commonly goes wrong
Recommended COREAX path
Pair COREAX heavy-duty drawer slides for pull-out storage with COREAX folding brackets for camp kitchen surfaces, prep shelves, and compact worktops.

- Map every moving part before drilling.
- Estimate loaded weight for each drawer, tray, or fold-down surface.
- Confirm locking, latch, and release access in the final vehicle position.
- Use reinforced mounting structure for vehicle vibration.
- Test with light load before packing full camping gear.
