Round Roof

Improves structural integrity. Helps shed water and snow.

Steel Underframe

Provides strength and durability.

Continuous Trough Hatch

Aluminum extrusions form the hatch coaming and upper step portion of the roof. The roof is capable of supporting round trough ends and a variety of hatch cover designs.
