No, we do not recommend moving loaded hard tops.

No, there is only access from one side via either the roll-up door and/or the “barn doors”.

No, the ramp (Part# 0676) is optional.

The Ultra-Hard Top P2 Plus is made of polyethylene (LLDPE) so in the event of a fire the unit will melt.  It is not intended to be used in place of a safety cabinet.

No, the spill pallet is not completely waterproof.  It is more accurately described as weatherproof.  In other words, in standard weather conditions, your drums and/or containers should be protected and water gathering in the pallets is not a concern.  However, during very gusty conditions or very heavy rainfall, some water may get into the unit.  It is good practice to inspect the interior of the hard top after any severe weather.

Yes, there is enough room inside of the hard top for two drums and the ramp.

At its peak (the top is sloped) the height is 62 1/4”, the inside width is 33 1/4”, and inside length is 62 7/8”.

The hard top ships completely assembled and ready to go upon arrival. However, we can ship a disassembled unit to reduce shipping space. Please contact us for more information on this option.

UltraTech’s general response to this question is at least ten (10) years. You can expect longer, but the actual life is dependent on several factors. UltraTech has been making outdoor spill containment products since 1993. We have a good sense of realistic life expectancy based on all those years of experience. UltraTech uses the highest-rated UV package in the resin formulation it uses to create the longest outdoor life available for a PE product

The most important environmental factors are ultraviolet exposure and chemical exposure. In the absence of chemical compatibility concerns (determined by the UltraTech compatibility chart for PE products), the next most important factor for outdoor, polyethylene spill containment products will be ultraviolet irradiation (UV) exposure. The most important factors with reference to UV are thickness, UV Inhibitor (UVI) content, and pigment color, type, and concentration. Ultraviolet irradiation exposure causes molecular structure and bond changes that result in the embrittlement of PE. Very thin PE can become brittle and fracture in less than a year (think contractor’s PE Visqueen sheeting). Thicker parts take longer to break down. The addition of UV Inhibitors to the PE allows it to sustain more UV exposure without breaking down. Darker pigments, inorganic pigments, and higher concentrations of pigments also individually and collectively will give PE a longer life before appreciable UV damage occurs.

There is an outdoor spill containment product that has been in use in northeast Florida since 1986 and is still in active use today. UltraTech suggests its Ultra-Track Pans, used for outdoor railroad track spill containment, have a minimum of a twenty-year life.

The standard drain is a threaded hole in the sidewall with a ¾” polyethylene plug with NPT threads installed.

The weight capacities we list for our products are the weights that can be loaded long-term (indefinitely) as long as they are uniformly distributed. So, you can go up to the listed weight capacity and be confident that our product will safely sustain the load.
