Badlands 283 Lifestyle Vault – Lockable Truck & SUV Storage Drawer
The Badlands 283 Lifestyle Vault is a lockable truck and SUV storage drawer engineered for secure, organized, and weatherproof protection of your gear. Built from heavy-duty rotomolded polyethylene, this single-drawer vault delivers the strength of a full vehicle platform with the convenience of smooth, reliable access to your equipment. Whether you are storing rifles, camera gear, hunting equipment, tools, or overlanding essentials, the Lifestyle Vault keeps everything protected, concealed, and ready when you need it.
Designed for trucks, SUVs, UTVs, and off-road vehicles, the vault features a reinforced flat top that supports dog boxes, kennels, coolers, and heavy gear without flexing. Its rugged construction stands up to mud, dust, rain, and temperature swings, making it a trusted solution for hunters, photographers, overlanders, and professionals who rely on secure vehicle storage.
Inside, the full-length drawer glides smoothly on heavy-duty tracks, offering quick access to your equipment while keeping it locked behind a durable, tamper-resistant system. From long rifles to sensitive electronics, your gear stays organized, protected, and out of sight.

Why It Stands Out
The Lifestyle Vault is a complete vehicle-ready storage system built to handle real-world conditions. Hunters appreciate the secure rifle storage. Photographers trust it with their camera gear. Overlanders rely on its weatherproof strength. And dog owners love that it supports kennels and dog boxes without compromising stability.
If you need a secure, lockable, weatherproof storage drawer that elevates your truck or SUV into a more capable, organized, and protected setup, the Badlands 283 Lifestyle Vault delivers unmatched performance.

Dakota 283 manufactures high-quality and innovative products to contain and protect your dog. We take pride in serving the vast majority of the dog population with our products. With that said, our framed door kennel products can not contain ALL dogs. We expect that there are some breeds and or pets that are beyond containment with our products. While we have had great success in kenneling aggressive dogs, we are not claiming that we can contain every dog. A good example would be a very aggressive Belgian Malinois. Dog owners know their dogs intimately and should be the person that makes the final determination regarding the use of any product or kennel. We are regularly working on additional products and upgraded designs that will give a higher degree of containment for aggressive breeds. If you have any questions concerning these products or if a kennel is right for your dog, please reach out to us so we may help you through the decision process. Dakota 283 products are exceptionally durable and with proper care will provide many years of use for you and your pet. The Dakota 283 product warranty does not cover items not purchased from our website or an authorized Dakota 283 dealer, damage caused by abuse or alteration of the product, not using the product as intended, improper installation, wear and tear, and chewing or damage caused by your pet. Knowing your pet’s personality, crate training, and properly supervising your pet while using our products will ensure your Dakota 283 product will last and provide years of Unparalleled Pet Protection.
