Desmond Simpson – 30ft Snaplock body with stainless steel locking bars including delta handles.

Snaplock bodies offer weight savings over the conventional GRP construction. Customers have also remarked on their significantly higher resale value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From an environmental point of view aluminium construction is king – lower weight giving increased fuel economy and fully recyclable sides and bulkhead.

The headache of branches and bridges

Posted in Aluminium panel body, Safety

Watch out for low bridges and overhanging branches!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Attention to route changes or road diversions in relation to the height of your vehicle can save £££’s

  • Place a marker in the cab clearly indicating the vehicle height – a quick check before entering a low bridge or service station could save thousands!
  • Approach low bridges and areas of overhanging branches at a reduced speed – the slower the speed the slower the ‘can opener effect’
  • Pay particular attention when changing vehicle or route – in our experience this is the most likely cause of collisions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Drumack Coachworks frequently undertake insurance work to repair damaged vehicles. In some instances of more severe damage it is more cost effective to replace the body.
