BEDSLIDE

Who Is BEDSLIDE?

BEDSLIDE is the USA-based truck bed slide brand that pioneered the concept of turning a pickup truck bed into a giant sliding drawer. Every BEDSLIDE truck bed slide is manufactured in the USA with 100% weather-resistant heavy-duty materials, and the brand's reputation rests on a simple promise: minimum time and energy for maximum results when loading, transporting, and accessing your gear. A BEDSLIDE truck bed slide works on trucks, vans, and SUVs, and there's a BEDSLIDE model to fit almost any pickup on the market.

The full BEDSLIDE catalog covers four main product tiers. The BEDSLIDE S is the modular entry-level model where you start with a base 1000 lb deck and add only the accessories that fit your build (TRAXRAILS, dividers, additional D-rings). The BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic is the fixed-configuration 1000 lb model and the most affordable BEDSLIDE for buyers wanting the standard 1/2 ton capacity in either Black or Silver. The BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor (also sold as the BEDSLIDE 1500 Pro CG in the broader catalog) is the 1500 lb heavy-duty tier with integrated side tracks and a full-width grab bar for contractors and overlanders carrying serious weight. The BEDSLIDE 2000 Heavy Duty (also BEDSLIDE 2000 Pro HD in the broader catalog) is the 2000 lb / 1 ton premium tier with quad Cam Follower bearings, sold for contractors hauling the heaviest loads.

The broader BEDSLIDE catalog also includes the BEDSLIDE 1000 Pro SE (with integrated side tracks and removable containment walls), the 500GO smaller portable model, the aluminum bed mounting kit (BSA-HALUMKT) for aluminum-bed F150s, TRAXRAILS accessory side rails, dividers, and a full accessory range. Our Off Road Tents BEDSLIDE selection focuses on the most-installed configurations: the BEDSLIDE S, BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic, and BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor across the four most popular truck platforms.

How a BEDSLIDE Truck Bed Slide Works

If you've never used a truck bed slide out before, the basic concept is simple: instead of climbing into your truck bed to reach gear stored toward the cab, a BEDSLIDE pulls the entire bed out to your tailgate so you can access everything from beside the truck. Every BEDSLIDE is a 3/4 extension (75%) truck bed slide out riding on 3282 lb static rated Cam Follower bearings that handle the load smoothly even when fully loaded. The same product is sometimes called a truck bed cargo slide, a truck cargo slide, a truck bed drawer slide, or a truck bed sliding drawer, but the BEDSLIDE design is the original and most-installed version of all these search terms.

Pull the latch, slide the deck out, load or unload, and slide it back. Multiple locking positions every 12 inches let you stop the slide at half-extension or full-extension and lock it in place, so you can work off the deck without it rolling around. The 4-1/2" deck height keeps the slide low enough to work with most tonneau covers, truck caps, and bed racks installed on top, which is one of the key reasons BEDSLIDE works on overland builds where the truck bed is already covered. Buyers cross-shopping pickup bed slide options outside the BEDSLIDE catalog will find that most competitor truck bed slide out designs don't match BEDSLIDE's combination of 3/4 extension, multiple locking positions, and tonneau-compatible deck height.

A BEDSLIDE truck bed slide saves real time on every load and unload cycle. Instead of climbing in, leaning over, dragging gear, and climbing out, you pull the slide, grab what you need, and slide it back. For contractors and tradesmen, this turns a 30-minute unload-and-reload routine into a 10-second operation. For overlanders, it means accessing your fridge, recovery gear, or camp setup without disturbing other gear stacked on top. For everyday truck owners, it's just the difference between using your truck bed daily versus avoiding the climb-in.

Our BEDSLIDE Selection at a Glance

BEDSLIDE S vs 1000 Classic vs 1500 Contractor: Picking the Right Model

BEDSLIDE organizes the catalog around weight capacity and configuration flexibility. Picking between the BEDSLIDE S, BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic, and BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor (the three tiers in our ORT BEDSLIDE selection) comes down to two questions: how much weight will you carry, and how much configuration flexibility do you need.

BEDSLIDE S ($1,220 featured for Tacoma 2nd/3rd Gen) is the modular entry-level BEDSLIDE truck bed slide. The "S" stands for SUPERIOR and the design philosophy is "start with the base 1000 lb deck and add only the accessories that fit your build." Available only in Silver. 6 D-Ring tie-downs come standard (more than the 1000 Classic's 4 D-rings), TRAXRAILS are optional accessories, dividers are optional, and the modular BEDTRAX center lets you reconfigure the slide as your build evolves. The right BEDSLIDE pick for buyers who want the most flexibility to customize the slide to specific cargo loadouts.

BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic ($1,445 featured for 1st Gen Tacoma, $1,644 featured for Ram 2021) is the fixed-configuration 1000 lb model and the most affordable BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic configuration. Same 1000 lb capacity as the BEDSLIDE S, same WEATHERDECK composite decking, same 3282 lb Cam Follower bearings, but with a fixed configuration (4 D-Ring tie-downs, no modular options) at a lower price point. Available in Black or Silver. The right BEDSLIDE Classic pick for buyers who know exactly how they'll use the truck bed slide and don't need the modular configuration flexibility of the BEDSLIDE S.

BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor (from $1,728 featured for F150) is the heavy-duty 1500 lb / 3/4 ton tier and the right BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor pick for buyers carrying heavier loads. The 50% capacity bump over the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic matters when you're carrying generators, full tool boxes, multiple fuel cans, or heavy overland gear at the same time. BEDTRAX T-slots are integrated across the full deck (rather than just center), and the structural margin gives the BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor more long-term durability under heavy daily use.

Vehicle-Specific BEDSLIDE Coverage

BEDSLIDE engineers most of the catalog around specific truck platforms and bed lengths. Here's the platform coverage in our featured selection and the broader BEDSLIDE catalog.

Toyota Tacoma (1st Gen + 2nd/3rd Gen)

Tacoma coverage in our featured selection includes both the BEDSLIDE S for 2nd/3rd Gen Tacoma 6' bed ($1,220) and the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic for 1st Gen Tacoma 5' bed ($1,445). Our broader BEDSLIDE selection also includes the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic for 2nd/3rd Gen Tacoma & Tundra. For Tacoma owners cross-shopping Tacoma bed slide or Toyota Tacoma bed slide options, the BEDSLIDE Tacoma lineup covers every Tacoma generation back to 1995, which is rare in the truck bed slide market where most aftermarket brands skip 1st Gen Tacoma support entirely.

Toyota Tundra (5.5', 6.5', 8' Beds)

Tundra coverage in our broader BEDSLIDE selection includes the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic for 2014-2021 Toyota Tundra across all three Tundra bed lengths (5.5', 6.5', 8'). For Tundra owners cross-shopping Tundra bed slide options, the BEDSLIDE Tundra fitment is the standard pick and the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic capacity tier handles the typical Tundra owner's load profile (overland gear, tool loads, sports equipment). The Tundra bed slide configurations in the broader BEDSLIDE catalog are among the most-installed BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic fitments because of the Tundra's popularity as both a work truck and an overland platform.

Ford F150 and Raptor (5.5', 6.5', 8' Beds)

F150 coverage in our featured selection is the BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor for F150 and Raptor (from $1,728) across all three F150 bed lengths (5.5', 6.5', 8'). Our broader BEDSLIDE selection also includes the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic and BEDSLIDE S for 2017-2019 F150 with 5.5' and 6.5' beds. For F150 owners cross-shopping F150 bed slide or Ford F150 bed slide options, the BEDSLIDE F150 lineup gives you all three capacity tiers (S, 1000 Classic, 1500 Contractor) across all F150 bed lengths going back to the 1970 F150. Aluminum-bed F150 owners (2015+) should request the BSA-HALUMKT aluminum bed mounting kit from the broader BEDSLIDE catalog.

Ram 1500, 2500, 3500

Ram coverage in our featured selection is the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic for 2021 Ram 1500/2500/3500 with 5.7' bed ($1,644). Our broader BEDSLIDE catalog also covers Ram 1500/2500/3500 fitments across other model years and bed lengths (BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic covers Ram from 1981 to current, including 8' beds). For Ram owners cross-shopping Ram 1500 bed slide options, BEDSLIDE Ram is the standard premium pick in the truck bed slide category.

Broader BEDSLIDE Vehicle Coverage

The full BEDSLIDE brand catalog extends beyond our featured Tacoma/Tundra/F150/Ram selection. BEDSLIDE also makes vehicle-specific fitments for Chevrolet/GMC pickups (Silverado/Sierra), Dodge Dakota, Nissan Frontier and Titan, Toyota T-100, plus vans and SUVs across multiple platforms. For buyers searching for a BEDSLIDE on a platform not currently in our ORT BEDSLIDE selection, call us at 844-200-3979 and we can help source the right BEDSLIDE fitment from the broader brand catalog.

BEDSLIDE Engineering and Construction

Several engineering details separate a BEDSLIDE truck bed slide from cheaper alternatives and justify the BEDSLIDE premium pricing.

WEATHERDECK composite decking. Every BEDSLIDE uses WEATHERDECK, the brand's exclusive composite lightweight decking that's durable in all elements. WEATHERDECK shrugs off rain, snow, dirt, dropped tools, oily mechanic tools, fuel spills (within reason), and the kind of weather exposure that destroys cheaper plywood-and-paint decks within a season. The composite construction is also significantly lighter than steel-decked alternatives, which matters for the slide's smooth operation when fully loaded.

3282 lb static rated Cam Follower bearings. The load-bearing end of every BEDSLIDE uses 2 Cam Follower bearings rated for 3282 lb static load each (or 4 bearings on the BEDSLIDE 2000 Heavy Duty in the broader catalog). The bearing rating is far higher than the slide's working capacity (1000-1500 lb), which gives the BEDSLIDE the structural margin to handle uneven loads, dynamic loading from rough off-road driving, and the long-term wear that breaks cheaper slide mechanisms. The bearings ride on hardened guides, with 2 ball sealed roller bearings as secondary guides on the BEDSLIDE S and 1000 Classic.

BEDTRAX T-slot system. BEDTRAX is the modular T-slot rail integrated into the deck of every BEDSLIDE. The T-slot lets you attach D-ring tie-downs, dividers, sport rack mounts, fuel can holders, or any T-slot-compatible accessory anywhere along the rail. This is the reconfigurability that makes a BEDSLIDE work across multiple cargo scenarios (overland one weekend, work tools the next, sport gear the weekend after) without permanent modifications to the deck.

Multiple locking positions every 12 inches. Every BEDSLIDE locks at multiple positions along the slide travel, typically every 12 inches. This lets you stop the slide at half-extension, full-extension, or anywhere in between, and lock it in place so you can work off the deck without it rolling. The locking mechanism is hard-latch (not just a friction stop), so the slide stays where you put it under load.

Riv-nut drill-free mounting. BEDSLIDE uses a riv-nut mounting system that installs without drilling into your truck bed. Riv-nuts thread into the existing factory bed holes, giving you a structural mount that comes out cleanly if you ever remove the BEDSLIDE. Installation takes about 1 hour with basic hand tools.

4-1/2" deck height. The BEDSLIDE deck sits 4-1/2" above your truck bed floor when installed. This is low enough to work with most tonneau covers, truck caps, bed racks, and rooftop tents installed above the bed, which is critical for overland builds that combine a truck bed slide with bed-mounted gear above.

5-year warranty + Limited Lifetime with registration. Every BEDSLIDE ships with a 5-year manufacturer's warranty as standard, plus an Extended Lifetime Warranty when you register the product with BEDSLIDE within 30 days of purchase. The lifetime registration warranty is one of the strongest in the truck bed slide market and reflects the brand's confidence in BEDSLIDE long-term durability.

BEDSLIDE Accessories

The BEDSLIDE accessories catalog is one of the strongest parts of the broader brand lineup, and the BEDTRAX T-slot system on every BEDSLIDE deck makes adding BEDSLIDE accessories straightforward. Buyers searching for BEDSLIDE accessories typically come back to upgrade their BEDSLIDE configuration after the initial bedslide installation, adding capacity for taller or heavier cargo as their builds evolve.

TRAXRAILS are the optional 8" perimeter side rails that prevent taller cargo from sliding off the sides of the BEDSLIDE deck. Standard on the BEDSLIDE 1500 Contractor and BEDSLIDE 2000 Heavy Duty, optional accessory on the BEDSLIDE S and BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic. The right BEDSLIDE accessory for buyers carrying taller gear (kayaks, boxed equipment, tool chests, jerry can holders) where side containment matters.

Additional D-Ring tie-downs slide into the BEDTRAX T-slot and let you secure cargo at any position along the deck. The BEDSLIDE S ships with 6 D-Rings standard; the BEDSLIDE 1000 Classic and 1500 Contractor ship with 4 D-Rings. Additional D-Rings are a popular accessory upgrade for cargo-heavy builds.

Dividers let you segment the BEDSLIDE deck into multiple cargo zones, similar to a drawer system organization. Optional accessory across the BEDSLIDE lineup. The right BEDSLIDE accessory for buyers wanting some compartmentalization without giving up the full slide-out access of a truck bed slide.

BSA-HALUMKT aluminum bed mounting kit is required for installing a BEDSLIDE on aluminum-bed F150s (2015+). Steel-bed trucks use the standard riv-nut hardware that ships with the BEDSLIDE; aluminum beds need this specific accessory kit to avoid corrosion at the mounting points.

BEDSLIDE vs Competitor Truck Bed Slides

BEDSLIDE competes in a narrow but well-defined market. Here's the honest comparison from our experience selling all major truck bed slide brands.

BEDSLIDE vs Front Runner Outfitters Slides: Front Runner builds universal-fit truck bed slides (Medium Load 250 lb, Large Load 500 lb, fridge-specific 80L-90L slides) at price points from $499 to $2,299. The Front Runner differentiation is universal fitment (the slides work on any truck bed long enough to accommodate them) plus the Wolf Pack box mounting ecosystem. The BEDSLIDE differentiation is vehicle-specific kits (every BEDSLIDE is sized to the exact bed it fits) plus the higher capacity ceiling (1500-2000 lb BEDSLIDE configurations vs Front Runner's 500 lb maximum). For overlanders who change trucks frequently, Front Runner wins on portability. For owners committed to one truck who want maximum capacity and bed utilization, BEDSLIDE wins.

BEDSLIDE vs Decked Drawer System: Decked makes a fundamentally different product (two side-by-side drawers that take up most of the bed, versus a single sliding deck that pulls out). For organizing many small-to-medium items into separate lockable compartments, Decked wins. For pulling out a single large load (generator, fridge, full camp setup) in one motion, BEDSLIDE wins. Many overlanders run both: a Decked drawer system for daily organized gear, plus a BEDSLIDE on top for the fridge and large items.

BEDSLIDE vs CargoGlide: CargoGlide makes competitive truck bed slides at similar price points to BEDSLIDE. The CargoGlide differentiation is the steel deck construction (heavier but more impact-resistant); the BEDSLIDE differentiation is the WEATHERDECK composite (lighter, smoother sliding, better moisture resistance). For buyers prioritizing absolute deck durability against dropped heavy tools, CargoGlide is a credible alternative. For buyers prioritizing smooth operation and weather resistance, BEDSLIDE wins.
