HAWK’S NEST MODEL GUIDE

EFFORTLESS SETUP & ADVENTURES

It’s as easy as snapping the two easy to use lockable latches open and letting the marine grade stainless steel gas struts do the rest.  The Hawk’s Nest is fully setup in less than 30 seconds making it one of the most effortless rooftop options on the market. 

With the moveable telescopic ladder and two ladder entry options at all times, ensures you have easy access, however your vehicle or camp site is setup.

LOW PROFILE BUT HIGHLY CUSTOMIZABLE

We’ve teamed up with Front Runner Outfitters to offer tent mounted rack options that let you bring all your essentials along for the ride. There’s a whole host of tie down, load securing and gear mounting accessories available.

Upgradable Marine Grade 316 Gas Struts allow up to 35kg of gear to be stored on top whilst unfolding and at camp. This means less time taking gear on and off and more time enjoying yourself. The modular design doesn’t stop there with multiple accessory mounting T-Tracks featured around the entire perimeter of the aluminium shell, for mounting awnings, camp lights and more.

Inside, you’ll find an insulated roof panel featuring a handy cargo storage net and storage hooks. There’s customisable rope track mounts for optional storage pockets and organiser options (coming soon).

DESIGNED FOR & PROVEN IN NZ’S HARSHEST CONDITIONS

From Northland’s beaming sun to the howling winds & rain of the deep South, the Hawk’s Nest has been rigorously tested and proven amongst it all. With each element has been purposely developed here in New Zealand for New Zealand conditions.

Featuring the brand new X-Canvas, the Hawk’s Nest’s tent body & Rainfly is built tough using Feldon Shelter’s proven, NZ proof construction methods. We’ve sourced the gear that works, genuine YKK Zippers from Japan, European built COATS thread (the stuff used on boat sails), NZ-Made Bungees, the list goes on. With downward facing, heat sealed seams throughout, the Hawk’s Nest is designed to be weatherproof in even the most extreme conditions. Giving you the confidence to go further and tackle it all.

Feldon Shelter’s very own built in ErgoCell dual stage mattress comfortably fits two people with enough room to stretch out. There’s nothing like a soft, dry and flat bed to lay on after a long day behind the wheel. You can kiss goodbye those restless nights spent sleeping on rocks and roots.

ROOF RACK & VEHICLE REQUIREMENTS

Roof Rack Requirements: 3-Bar Roof Rack System or Roof Platform with 6 Mounting Points to your vehicles roof. 

The spacing between the front & rear bar (or length of the roof platform) should be no less than 1100mm.

Vehicle Requirements: Both your vehicle & roof rack system require a minimum dynamic load rating of 100kg.

The Hawk’s Nest range of rooftop tents is well suited to larger SUV’s, 4×4’s and vans.

A quick note for most Double Cab Utes: A load capable canopy with suitable canopy mounted roof racks is generally required. The tent cannot be mounted both to the cab and canopy/tray due to their individual flex on the chassis. The ute cab itself also usually does not offer enough mounting length.
