Hapro Roady 3300 Roof Box :The UK’s Sweet Spot for Value + Performance

Looking for a mid-size roof box that doesn’t wobble, whistle, or wallop your wallet? Meet the Hapro Roady 3300, the practical, tough, and sensibly priced roof box that nails the essentials without the diva behaviour. It’s the “just right” porridge of roof storage: big enough for weekend escapes, compact enough for daily life, and engineered with the sort of Dutch common sense that keeps your gear dry and your nerves calm.

What Makes Roady 3300 a Standout?

• Safety-first, leak-last: A front-hinged design (like its larger sibling, the Roady 350) promotes excellent waterproofing and road-safe aerodynamics.

• Secure + simple: A single rear-mounted lock keeps things tidy and secure—no fiddly circus of latches.

• Real-world loading: The rear-opening lid lifts wide (up to ~55 cm at the back), so packing and unpacking is pleasantly un-dramatic—whether you’re curbside or on the traffic side.

• Zero-stress fitting: Hapro’s Master-Fit claw system grabs onto most roof bars in minutes. No toolbox symphony required.

Space That Plays Nicely With Bikes

At 82 cm wide, the Roady 3300 leaves room on many setups to carry one, sometimes two bikes beside it (depends on your bars and car). For the touring cyclist-meets-weekend-camper, that’s the dream combo.

FAQs ;Hapro Roady 3300

Q1: How much can I carry in the Roady 3300?
A: The box itself weighs 12 kg, and it’s rated for 75 kg payload (87 kg gross). Always check your vehicle roof load limit and roof bar rating—your car’s limit may be lower than the box’s.

Q2: Is it waterproof?
A: The front-hinged design and robust sealing make it highly water-resistant. In proper British weather (read: drizzle to downpour), your gear stays dry when the box is correctly closed and latched.

Q3: Can I open it from both sides?
A: It’s a rear-opening design that gives safe access from either side of the car (you walk to the back and lift). Many users prefer this for pavement-side loading and better control in wind.

Q4: Will it fit my bars?
A: The Master-Fit claws handle most bars up to 95 mm wide x 38 mm deep. Got aluminium T-tracks or an unusual bar? T-track adapters have you covered.

Q5: Can I carry bikes alongside it?
A: Often yes. At 82 cm wide, many cars can mount one or even two bike carriers next to it—depends on your roof width and bar spread. Ask us for a quick fit check.

Q6: How hard is installation?
A: It’s refreshingly simple. Position on your bars, tighten the Master-Fit claws, lock, and you’re done. No degree in mechanical engineering required.

Q7: Will it affect fuel economy or noise?
A: Any roof load does, but the Roady 3300’s compact, well-profiled shape minimises the penalty. Keep speeds sensible and remove the box when not in use for best efficiency.

Q8: What’s the warranty?
A: 3 years—and we’re here to help with setup, spares, or troubleshooting long after purchase.
