Thule Roof Boxes - The Common Sense Choice Whatever Your Requirements
Roof boxes can transform your holiday, sporting activities and everyday life by adding additional storage capacity to your vehicle. Roof boxes are becoming increasingly popular, thanks to the convenience they deliver. As a company, we thought long and hard about which roof box manufacturer we wanted to sell from our premises in Stockport. Truth be told, the decision was not really a difficult choice because one manufacturer, in our opinion, stood head and shoulders above the rest - Thule.
There were a number of reasons why we chose Thule, which we will go into throughout the course of this article, but needless to say, we have never once regretted our decision, and our relationship with Thule has flourished ever since. It is fair to say that a Thule roof box is not an insignificant investment, but as with most things in life, when it comes to car roof boxes, you get what you pay for, and Thule roof boxes ooze quality. Let's examine why we believe a Thule roof box is the best investment you could make.
Build Quality
In our experience, and from the hundreds of customers who have visited our premises, buying a cheaper make of roof box is a false economy. Whilst the initial cost may be less, the chances are that you will be replacing that box within a couple of years. A roof box is one of those items that, once you have experienced the many benefits, you will not want to be without it, and a Thule roof box will last you many years.
Thule roof boxes are made from steel rather than aluminium. This fundamental difference means that the roof box is much stronger while still being relatively light in weight. In fact, the company have such confidence in their products that every Thule roof box comes with a two-year warranty, and if you take an extended warranty, this is then extended to five years.
Accessories For Every Requirement
Although this might not be at the forefront of any purchasing decision, the longer you use a roof box, the more uses you find for it, and this is another area in which Thule excels. Thule offers a huge range of beneficial accessories designed to make your life and journeys easier. These include cargo nets' bottle holders, rapid release systems, and even a car doorstep folding ladder.
Quick and Easy Installation
Although it can be convenient to fit and forget a roof box, it is not always the most economical option, particularly when it comes to fuel consumption. Therefore provided you have suitable storage facilities, it might be sensible to only install your Thule roof box when you are using it. Thule has factored this into the manufacturing process to ensure that all of their roof boxes are quick and easy to install. They all come with pre-cut parts, meaning they can be put together without specialist tools.
Advanced Technology
Although there is little doubt that installing a roof box will lower your miles per gallon, Thule has done everything in its power to enhance the aerodynamics of its products. Their modern and refreshing designs, with technologies such as AeroNose, help to reduce wind resistance which will ultimately reduce the drag effect and help you to maximise every drop of fuel.
This is another often overlooked saving that minimises the pricing differential between a Thule roof box and some of the cheaper products on the market.
Security
Another critical component built into Thule roof boxes is their market-leading security. Thule roof boxes regularly win best-in-test awards for their safety, security and ease of use. It is important to consider security when going on longer trips, where your vehicle may be left unattended at a service station or other area with which you are not familiar. With a quality locking system, you can be confident that your valuables are safe while you enjoy a well-earned meal.
