Our road cases are economical, yet extremely strong and intended to protect your equipment and instruments. Originally designed for musicians to carry their electric instruments and sound systems, today these protective transit cases are used by companies that require the best protection available for equipment, from electronic and computer equipment to broadcast and video equipment. We offer a number of stock sizes as well as many custom solutions for almost any application. The road cases shown here all meet or exceed the criteria defined by the ATA (Air Transport Association) Specification 300, Category 1 guidelines for multiple, repeated shipments.
Road cases can be outfitted with a foam lining, partitioned interior, or custom foam insert to protect your equipment. Cases feature recessed hardware – spring loaded handles and latches; and can have a hinged lid, removable lid, or a double lid most frequently used in rackmount cases. They can be further customized with drawers, heavy-duty cases, trap doors, shelves – they can even convert into a work station. Custom cases are our specialty – let us know your requirements and we will create your solution. Our ATA cases are available in a number of colors at no additional charge – black, red, blue, white, yellow, orange, purple, gray, and green, Contact us for a free consultation for your next road case.

A specialist on active duty for the National Guard Security Force Platoon, wanted to custom build a “Combat Crewman Camera System” for mounting on armored military tactical vehicles and use in various missions and training procedures. He came to us with a napkin sketch and a fixed budget.
We chose the watertight, crushproof and dustproof Pelican 1490 for its durable construction and locking latches that would ensure a tight closure during transit and not disturb the top-mounted cameras. We also designed a custom foam interior shaped to secure the many components of the client’s creative AV system.
The project was a collaborative effort: We engineered the custom foam interior to meet the client’s specifications for the delicate audio and visual components. He did the rest: He mounted multiple XLR connectors on the case and added handles for immobilization during transit and to allow him to open the case without disturbing the camera positions. He also installed several camera pedestal mounts on the case for maximum visibility at a wide range of angles and added other modifications to protect the case from moisture.
To complete the system, the client purchased an Otter Waterproof Case (OC-1000) and converted it into an SD card holder. He also customized a Pelican 1400 (PC-1400) for use as a support case. It stores the rest of the camera system parts, including the mounting brackets, the Otter case with the SD cards, and the camera pedestal extension mounts.
