HYPERDECK™ RV FLOOR

HIGH-PERFORMANCE, WATER RESISTANT RV FLOOR
Stronger, lighter and more resilient than traditional wood laminated flooring, Keystone's exclusive HyperDeck™ is an excellent example of how the Keystone Innovation Lab challenges industry norms to build better RV's. By its nature, traditional wood floor construction presents the possibility of taking on water, a watchout for RV owners who need to remain vigilant to keep moisture out of their coaches. Hyperdeck replaces wood with 100% inorganic materials, designed to resist water and water damage. That's peace of mind that's worth its weight in gold.

SIX WAYS HYPERDECK RV FLOORS OUTPERFORM TRADITIONAL LAMINATED PLYWOOD CONSTRUCTION

100% inorganic and water resistant

Fiberglass-reinforced polypropylene layers increase strength and resist soft spots

Reduces flooring weight by up to 25% for easier towing

Less likely to degrade over time

Increased screw retention keeps RV build secure

High density foam and polypropylene construction increases insulation and dampens noise

Tru-Fit™ Slide Construction 

A BETTER FOUNDATION

A long-time RV owner recently stood in our office and pronounced that auto-leveling and slide rooms were the industry's two greatest inventions, and we have to agree. As great as slide rooms are, it's important to remember that they aren't all created equal.

When shopping for a new RV, look for slides that are well-engineered and well-built to both keep water out and stand up to the mechanical stresses of moving hundreds of pounds in and out of your coach.

The Innovation Lab's Tru-Fit™ Slide contruction tackles durability and weather protection head on.

With custom-engineered frames for every floorplan, Keystone RV eliminates the compromises other manufacturers are forced to make as they try to adapt new floorplan designs to work with stock frames. Keystone's Tru-Fit frame design optimizes each slide's position to reduce stress on the structure and motor, resulting in a more durable build and consistent performance. A flexible rubber seal is added to both the slide-out structure and the side wall, doubling the RV's protection against the elements.

The result? More durable and weather-resistant slide rooms that are most definitely built for the long haul.

12V Distribution Center

Keystone RV's Giggy Box consolidates 12V wiring into a single connection with an optional battery disconnect. Available on most Keystone A-frame travel trailers and fifth wheels manufactured after 2021.

What's inside the Giggy Box 12V power distribution center?

7-way bargeman cord connections with distribution block, color-coded to SAE standards

battery disconnect available as standard equipment or as an aftermarket option on some models

automotive-grade, auto-resettable fuses (better known as mini breakers)

inline fuse connections

Based on customer input, Keystone Innovation Lab's Giggy Box was developed to organize and centralize an RV's 12V wiring connections. When appropriately equipped, it also allows owners turn off all 12V power to the RV—eliminating parasitic draw that can cause dead batteries. While the battery disconnect cuts power to 12V components, it maintains power to the breakaway switch for safety. If the RV has a solar power system, the batteries will still be charged when the disconnect is in the OFF position.

Designed to make it easy for owners to service, the back of the Giggy Box lid features an easy-to-read diagram identifying every item and circuit. Components, including a 7-way bargeman cord, auto-resettable fuses, and battery disconnect, can be easily removed, serviced and/or replaced. Please use caution when working on your RV. If at anytime you feel uncomfortable with any RV repair, stop what you're doing and contact a service professional.

Giggy Box advantages:

provides weather-resistant housing for 12V connections

reduces number of battery connections

reduces components that are mounted to the drawbar and streamlines wiring

offers a dedicated breakaway post for continous power for the breakaway switch

allows trickle-charging via solar power

well-labeled, removable components for easy servicing
