Racking cage and fit-out FAQs
What is a traffic control racking cage?
What is a traffic control racking cage?
A racking cage is a steel frame that mounts on a ute or truck tray and holds traffic control equipment in fixed sections: multi-message sign frames, corflute sign panels, frame legs, bollards, stop/slow bats and usually a vehicle-mounted arrow board on top. It keeps the gear secure in transport and lets crews unload and reload in the same order every job.

How do you design a custom cage?
How do you design a custom cage?
We start from your vehicle, tray size and equipment list, then draw the cage in-house in CAD around that equipment. Often that means modifying one of our existing designs rather than starting from scratch. Once the layout and products are agreed, we quote it, build it and fit it.
Do you fit the cages, or can they be shipped?

What warranty do the cages have?

Does fitting a cage make my vehicle compliant for traffic control work?
No. A racking cage is a storage and deployment system only. Vehicle fitment, equipment selection and operational requirements should be confirmed against your traffic management plan, project requirements and applicable road authority conditions.
Planning a traffic control vehicle fit-out?
Send us the vehicle, the tray size and what the crew needs to carry, and we will recommend a cage design and quote the fit-out.
