DROP-IN BEDLINER

DURABILITY

Drop-in liners are made of either plastic or rubber, and many are made of low quality materials that are prone to warping and cracking.

AESTHETICS

Let’s face it, some drop-in liners can look cheezy. As a cheaper alternative to spray-on liners, drop-ins offer utility but sacrifice aesthetic. Drop-in liners do not offer color options, and many brandish a large, permanent logo right in the center of the liner.

IMPACT & ABRASION PROTECTION

While drop-in liners offer a buffer between your truck bed and rough cargo, loose material can get trapped underneath the liner and actually scuff the truck bed.

INSTALLATION

Typical plastic drop-in liners require drilling holes in the bed to secure the liner to the truck. Over time liners can vibrate loose, potentially falling out of the truck bed at high speeds due to poor installation. Drop-ins are known to trap water between the liner and truck bed, leading to rust or corrosion.

REPAIRABLE

Drop-ins can’t be repaired, only replaced. Every few months the drop-in liner needs to be removed to clear away small debris, sand, dirt or moisture that can build up under the liner and cause issues.

OTHER PRODUCTS & SERVICES

Most drop-in companies only offer one core product with few customization or other options.
