Why it's important to select the correct vehicle and tyre size
Vehicle
There are a surprising number of vehicles that cannot use traditional snowchains, the types that put chain on the inside of the wheel as well as on the tread. This is usually because there is not enough space between the wheels and the shock absorbers; this can be a problem for ordinary SUVs and 4x4s as well as for high performance cars.
You will find this important information in your car handbook - please check this before using your snowchains! Our database is intended to do the basic work for you but, with so many new vehicles and tyre sizes, it should only ever be treated as a guide.
Tyre size
Please also check your tyre size - if you buy incorrectly-sized chains they will be either too tight or too loose.
Ladder track chains
The good news is that car handbooks usually only refer to "traditional snowchains". Ladder track chains such as the Polaire GRIP and Spikes-Spider range only put chain over the tyre tread, so are not subject to these restrictions. They are also ideal for use on rear wheel drives where there is minimal space between the top of the wheel and the wheel arch.
It's really important to select the correct vehicle, paying attention to the year of the manufacture

If you have a tow bar this is an excellent way to carry everyone's skis and boards, taking a maximum of 6 pairs of skis or 6 smaller boards (with the extra extension). It folds flat on the back of the vehicle when not in use, or it's small enough to fit in your boot if you need to transport it. Carrying skis on the tow ball makes for very easy loading, compared to reaching onto the roof. It's also a great option for longer journeys, especially if your roof is already taken up with a roof box. The Aneto tow bar ski and board carrier tilts to allow access to the tailgate, so you can still open the boot. It will tilt far enough to allow the tailgate on most cars to open (e.g. hatchbacks, estates, SUVs). It won't tilt far enough to open a vertical tailgate (e.g. vans and some MPVs). The Aneto has a loading width of 28cm, so it won't fit wider boards. You can check where to measure your boards on the diagram in the 'specifications' tab. If you plan on carry boards it's important you check the width to make sure they fit. Specifications:
- Fits to all tow balls.
- Fully lockable; the rack locks to the tow ball and the skis/boards lock to the rack.
- Carries up to 4 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards (or 2 pairs of skis and 2 snowboards), or an extra 2 boards/pairs of skis with an additional extension.
- Maximum board width (measured 48cm from the centre): 28cm (it's important you check this as not all boards will fit)
- Fold flat, both for storage and also on the back of the vehicle while not in use.
- Dimensions: 1090 x 550 x 580 mm (width x height x depth)
- Folded dimensions: 950 x 550 x 300 mm (width x height x depth)
- Weight: 23 kg
- Maximum load: 45kg (subject to the tow ball nose weight capacity)
- Maximum board width: 28cm
- Skis cannot be longer than the maximum width of the vehicle.
- Includes a number plate holder.

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".
