Package deal: Hapro Roady 350 anthracite black box and bars

This superb box and bars package deal provides everything you need, including locking roof bars. All you need to do is to click on "Add to basket and choose bars" to place your order; we'll then show you which roof bars are available. You'll pay more for aluminium than for steel, and you'll pay more for Atera, Thule, or Yakima than you'll pay for CRUZ. The savings on buying the components individually are huge and, if the bars you choose don't come with locks as standard, we'll include them for free, so often the savings are even bigger than advertised. We're very confident that you won't find such good value anywhere else!

We look around the European market regularly and are confident that this is much the best value box of this size below £225 - it's a significant step up, quality wise, from supermarket boxes. The Roady 350 is a front hinged box - the best design for both safety and waterproofing in this mid market sector - with a single rear mounted lock.

The rear opening also gives you good access from either side - it opens to 50cm wide at the back and 30cm at the side mid-point - making it easy and quick to fit and remove, load and unload. The reinforced flat base means that it will fit all standard roof bar configurations, including modern Fixpoint bars which are often too wide apart for short wide mid market roof boxes.

At 78cm wide there should be space to carry at least one bike carrier, especially if you use aerobars to gain extra useable roof bar length.

The box is supplied with the base inside the lid, to minimise freight costs / fuel use (Hapro supplies these boxes to dealers worldwide) but the self-assembly work is quick and easy - check out the Fitting video tab.

Specifications:

• An anthracite black top on a black base.
• Made from a very tough UV-protected ABS/ASA recyclable plastic.
• Weight 11kg empty, maximum load 50kg, gross loading limit 61kg.

• The lock is good and sturdy; it's a 'pull down to lock' system, which is good except that if you were to take the key from the lock and place it in the box you could easily lock the key in the box. Our advice is to turn the key to open the box, then as soon as the lid is clear of the lock housing turn it again, at which point the key can't be removed until the box is properly closed again

• Aerobar adapters are available - see links below.

  • Maximum distance between roof bar centres, front bar to rear bar = 87cm

Delivery FAQs

When will my order arrive?
There are no deliveries on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays, except for postable items where Royal Mail has a Saturday delivery. Express Delivery orders placed on a Friday (before 1pm) should be delivered on the Monday or Tuesday, Express Delivery orders placed on a Saturday or Sunday should be delivered on the Tuesday or Wednesday. The arrangements for Very Heavy Items are different and are shown above.

What about Next Working Day delivery?
Most Express delivery orders will arrive on the next working day, if the order is placed before the cut-off time (see above). Some will arrive on the second working day if there has been a "split-delivery". So-called “split deliveries” happen when the couriers do not have enough trailer space for everything that should be moved around the UK, so they will load what they can and leave the rest for the next trailer.

Is my delivery day guaranteed?
No retailer or courier company can ever "guarantee" a Next Working Day delivery. As well as split deliveries, all courier companies occasionally have the same transport problems as can happen to everyone else, including snow blocked roads, closed roads, traffic jams, mechanical breakdown, an inability to find the delivery address, or to gain access to it if, for example, it's in a block of flats. We work with some of the best couriers in the business, and overall they provide an outstanding service.

Do I need to be at home?
We are very flexible with our deliveries and will aim to deliver to an address which suits you – this does not need to be your home address. Goods can usually be left without signature - we prefer this with roof boxes. There's a "Special Delivery Instructions" box in the checkout area where we'll ask you to choose a typical instruction and then amend it to suit your particular requirements.

Payment options:

We take the following cards, and also PayPal. Please note that the entry on your card statement will be from "The Roof Box Company".
