MORE INFORMATION

WALLBOARD Truck Deck FAQs

Find detailed answers to the questions we hear most often about building a custom wallboard truck deck with Core Fabrication.

How do you make sure the deck can handle the weight of a full drywall load?

We start by calculating the total weight of the wallboard you typically carry, then engineer the deck and frame supports to exceed that capacity. Every deck is weighed and certified after fabrication to ensure compliance with CMVSS standards and safe axle loading.

What materials do you recommend for a wallboard deck?

Most operators want heavy duty steel framing with a hardwood or steel deck surface. We can also add options to protect against inclement weather and jobsite debris that can damage unprotected wood. Corrosion resistant coatings and powder coated finishes are popular options for this.

Can you add integrated storage or tie down systems?

Yes. We can install E track systems, custom tie down points, built in toolboxes and even slide out drawers. These features make it faster and safer for your crew to secure loads and access tools.

How do you prevent deck warping, rust, or mold over time?

We seal and finish decks for weather resistance, design proper drainage to prevent standing water and use materials that resist rot and corrosion. Powder coated steel and treated hardwood options are available for long term durability.

Can you build in access points for my truck’s frame or onboard equipment?

Absolutely. We can include cutouts or removable panels for easy access to the truck frame, fuel tanks, or generators, ensuring maintenance can still be performed without deck removal.

What mounting methods do you use for stability?

We design and fabricate custom brackets, supports and in some cases polyurethane mounting pads to distribute weight evenly and reduce vibration. Mounting is welded or bolted in house by CWB certified welders for strength and reliability.

Can you add safety features like headache racks or gates?

Yes. We can integrate headache racks to protect the cab and provide accessory mounting points, as well as custom gates or tailboards to keep sheet goods secure during transport.

How long does it take to build and install a wallboard deck?

Many smaller builds are completed in 2 to 4 weeks. Larger projects with custom features or multiple trucks may take up to 6 weeks. We provide a clear schedule and progress updates so you can plan your deliveries without unexpected downtime.

Can I visit your facility to see the build in progress?

We encourage scheduled visits so you can see our vertically integrated process firsthand. From raw steel to paint, every step of the build happens under one roof at our Calgary facility.

Do you ship outside Alberta?

Yes. We serve customers across Western and Eastern Canada, as well as the northern United States. Logistics support can be arranged for delivery outside the Calgary area.
