On the Horizon

Rooftop tents made for Australian travel

On the Horizon sells hard-shell rooftop tents, awnings and camping accessories through an Australian store. Its product range includes the 1.5 Pro, 1.4X, 1.4Z and 1.9 Penthouse, with listings showing capacity and features for each model. A rooftop tent can free space inside a vehicle, but the roof and rack must safely support the tent and occupants. Check both dynamic roof-load limits for driving and static support when parked.

Choosing a model and vehicle fit

The website has comparison pages and fit guides for vehicles such as the Toyota Hilux and LandCruiser, Ford Ranger and Everest, Isuzu D-Max, Nissan Navara and several others. A listed vehicle family does not mean every model year or rack setup fits. Verify the roof or tub rack measurements, crossbar spacing, mounting hardware, closed height and weight before ordering. The site also has a see-it-on-my-car feature, which may help visualise size but cannot replace a physical fit check.

Awnings, racks and touring gear

Beyond tents, the catalogue includes 270-degree awnings, quick-release brackets, tub racks, camping furniture and recovery gear. Bundle names suggest combinations for particular touring setups. Compare each bundle’s contents with what the vehicle already has; a bracket or rack may be required separately. When choosing an awning, consider which side of the vehicle it opens on and how it will be supported in wind or rain. Installation instructions and safe-use limits matter more than a lifestyle photograph.

Delivery, warranty and support

On the Horizon describes Australia-wide dispatch, a 24-month Australian warranty and support from Queensland. The exact coverage, exclusions and claim process should be checked for the selected tent or accessory. The site also lists stockists and trade-account options, so a buyer who wants to inspect a tent can ask about a nearby display. Before travelling, confirm stock and opening arrangements. For an online order, review freight cost, delivery access, packaging and the process for reporting transit damage.
