Frequently Asked Questions
Will Sheltrd fit my truck?
Sheltrd is optimized for 1/2-ton pickup trucks with bed lengths approximately 5.5–5.8 ft. It may also work with some 3/4-ton and midsize trucks, depending on bed dimensions and available attachment points. Attachment accessories are available for trucks that need additional anchor-point options.
How does Sheltrd attach?
Sheltrd uses a continuous bungee around the perimeter with hooks at key attachment points. Hook it to secure points around your truck bed, ideally near bed-rail height. If your truck doesn’t have upper attachment points, the optional Sheltrd Clamps give you a clean attachment point near the bed rails for a better fit.
Will Sheltrd work with my existing truck bed cover?
In many cases, yes. Sheltrd can work alongside roll-up, retractable, and other bed covers as long as you still have secure attachment points at the corners and near the cab.
Is Sheltrd waterproof?
Yes. Sheltrd uses urethane-coated, UV-treated nylon with a2000 mm waterproofratingto handle rain and everyday weather. It’s built to keep your gear covered, though it isn’t a fully sealed truck-bed enclosure.
Can I drive with Sheltrd installed?
Yes. Sheltrd is designed for normal driving, including highway travel, when properly installed and used as intended. Always make sure your cargo is properly secured before driving.
Will Sheltrd keep my cargo secure?
Sheltrd is designed to cover and conform around your load, but it is not a replacement for proper cargo tie-downs. Loose or shifting cargo should always be secured with appropriate straps or tie-downs.
Can Sheltrd cover taller cargo?
Yes. Its flexible design allows it to adapt to changing loads and cargo that extends above the bed rails.
How long does installation take?
Sheltrd goes from the carry bag to your truck in about 1–2 minutes.
How do I store Sheltrd?
Pack it into the included carry bag and store it under or behind a seat, or leave it on your truck so it’s ready when you need it.
What comes with Sheltrd?
Your Sheltrd truck bed cover with integrated premium bungee, removable attachment hooks, and carry bag.
