What it is

The Hoppin Habitats overhead cabinet is a custom-built ply storage box with a top-hinged front door, sized to bolt up above the galley, the rear cab area, or wherever you've got dead headroom you'd rather put to work.

White-face panels keep the interior bright instead of swallowing light. The hardwood edge frame protects the corners (the bits that take a hit every time you load and unload), and the recessed timber pull is shaped to open one-handed when you're balancing a coffee in the other.

Built to last

Structural plywood box, hardwood edge banding, hand-finished paint on the face panels. The same materials and joinery we use in our full custom fitouts — built to take corrugations, not just look the part.

Top-hinged door

Front lifts up on stays and holds open, so both your hands stay free while you're rummaging. Internal shelf splits the box into two usable zones — clothes up top, kettle and mugs below.

Made to order

Built in our Tingalpa workshop after you order. Standard sizing suits mid-size and high-top vans. Send through your interior dimensions if you want a custom fit, or order a pair if you've got the wall for it.

Have a look

A few angles on the cabinet — closed, side-on, door open, and a close-up of the pull.

Installed in a van

Here's a pair mounted above the galley in a high-top fitout — same cabinet, same finish, just doubled up to take advantage of the full wall length. Cleans up the rear, keeps your floor back, and matches the look of the rest of a Hoppin Habitats fitout.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

$250 AUD for the standard build — white-face ply with hardwood edge banding and timber pull. Custom sizing for non-standard interiors is quoted on top.

How long is the lead time?

About two weeks from when you lock in the order. Sometimes quicker if the workshop's quiet.

Do you deliver?

Not at the moment — pickup is from our Tingalpa workshop. If you need it freighted interstate we can point you at a courier.

Will it fit my van?

Standard build suits mid-size and high-top vans. Send through the wall length and ceiling height you've got to work with and we'll either confirm fit or quote a custom size.

Can I see one in person?

Yep — drop into the workshop in Tingalpa, by appointment. Call or WhatsApp first so we know to expect you.

Do you make matching furniture?

Yes. The comb bed is built in the same materials and finish, so the two pair up cleanly. If you want the whole interior done, have a look at our custom fitouts.
