Fixed Deck

Our Fixed Deck, also called Modular Platform, redefines how light commercial vehicles are built. This aluminium flatbed kit transforms a bare chassis into a complete dropside, flatbed or tipper body in just a few hours, without welding, painting, or special tools.

Our Fixed Deck, also called Modular Platform, redefines how light commercial vehicles are built. This aluminium flatbed kit transforms a bare chassis into a complete dropside, flatbed or tipper body in just a few hours, without welding, painting, or special tools.

Designed for those who want total control,
effortless adjustment, and lasting reliability.

Quality certified

The Modular Platform Kit is tested and approved according to EN 12642 and EN 12640 to ensure top quality and a long product life..



Stepless load lashing system

Two step locks and a 360° stepless load lashing system make securing goods quick and easy.



Functionality

Ready-to-use profiles slide easily into place in the frame profile. Screwed joints ensure self-centring. The result is a light and stable bed with no welding or special fittings.

Design

A clean and streamlined design maximises the load area. New side rave profiles have integrated hinges and ergonomic handles provide maximum grip ease.

Quality

Anodised aluminium is lightweight and robust, providing maximum possible payload and a minimal risk for corrosion.



Easy to install, build and maintain

No special tools, workshop or jig needed. Takes 1.5 hours to build. Aluminium profiles are maintenance free.

Armaton Pillars

The platform is equipped with Armaton pillars – a trusted, premium system known for durability and ease of use.
Armaton pillars can be easily lifted off the bracket when open and lock securely when closed.

The pillar design allows flexible bodywork possibilities. Accessories and components can be directly attached onto the pillar without the need for welding or drilling – making customization faster, cleaner, and more flexible.

The 160° handle movement enables quick, effortless loading and unloading. The handle is also interchangeable for easy maintenance.

Step 1: Neutral position
Step 2: The lock hook is not affected, clearance
Step 3: The lock hook opens

Multifunctional Side Rave System

The platform features a two-part side rave system with uniquely designed inner and outer profiles, each serving a distinct function.

The inner side rave ensures perfect corner alignment at 90°, enabling frame assembly without jigs or special tools. Multiple mounting holes along the profile allow flexible cross member positioning, adapting easily to various chassis layouts.

The outer side rave functions as a hinge profile for the side boards and as a continuous lashing point for securing goods, combining strength and versatility in one unique design.

An engineered component kit, simple, adaptable and built for your needs.

Armaton’s Modular Platform is an engineered kit system designed for simplicity, speed, and adaptability. Each kit includes precision aluminium sideboards, corner pillars, subframes, and mounting brackets, all pre-drilled and ready to bolt together. The system can be delivered in three formats:

  • Flat-pack, compact and efficient for transport or export

  • Line-feed sets, for seamless integration in production flows

  • Pre-packed kits, customised for local assembly partners

From delivery to a finished flatbed takes less than two hours for experienced installers. Even first-time builders can complete an installation in less than a day.

Bolted, not welded, for a cleaner & safer build.

Every component is bolted rather than welded, assembly is clean, safe, and can be done in any workshop. No sparks, no paint, no curing time, just a perfectly aligned, ready-to-work flatbed that delivers precision and reliability every time.

Environmentally smart

Every detail of the Modular Platform Kit is designed with sustainability in mind.
The majority of the system is built from high-grade aluminium – a lightweight, durable
and fully recyclable material that offers exceptional strength at a fraction of the
weight of traditional steel constructions.

Lower system weight means higher payload capacity, allowing operators to transport
more goods per trip. Fewer runs directly reduce fuel consumption, CO₂ emissions and
overall environmental impact. A lighter platform also contributes to reduced wear
on the vehicle, lowering long-term fuel use and maintenance.

All kit components are delivered in a single flat-pack, optimised for transport.
This minimises shipping volume, improves logistical efficiency and further reduces
greenhouse gas emissions compared to bulky, pre-assembled alternatives.
