The Alu-Cab Khaya Pneumatic Air Assist takes the heavy lifting out of opening your Khaya Camper roof. Designed specifically for the Khaya platform, the system uses a compact compressor unit and two pneumatic cylinders to help raise the roof smoothly and with far less physical effort.
This becomes especially valuable when your Khaya roof is carrying additional equipment such as load bars, a solar panel or other approved rooftop gear. The system can assist with up to 40 kg (88 lb) of added roof load, helping make camp setup faster, easier and more manageable.
It is one of those upgrades that may seem optional until you use it. Then it quickly becomes part of what makes arriving at camp feel effortless.
Your Khaya already goes almost anywhere. Now opening it can be just as easy.
Why Add Pneumatic Air Assist?
A Khaya roof is designed to lift manually, but every kilogram added to the roof changes the effort required to open it. Solar equipment, load bars and expedition gear can make a noticeable difference, particularly after a long day of driving.
The Pneumatic Air Assist helps carry that load, allowing the roof to rise more smoothly and reducing the physical effort needed during setup.
- Assists with up to 40 kg (88 lb) of roof load
- Faster and easier camp setup
- Reduces the effort required to raise the Khaya roof
- Ideal for Khaya campers carrying solar panels or rooftop equipment
- Uses two pneumatic cylinders for balanced lifting assistance
- Integrated compressor system is designed specifically for the Khaya platform
- Helps make repeated setup and takedown more comfortable
The Upgrade You Appreciate at the End of the Day
Camp setup rarely happens when you are fresh. It happens after hours behind the wheel, at the end of a trail, often in fading light or changing weather.
Pneumatic Air Assist removes one more job from that moment. Instead of wrestling with a loaded roof, you can raise the Khaya more easily and start enjoying camp sooner.
How the System Works
The Khaya Pneumatic Air Assist is a two-part system consisting of:
- Compressor and control unit
- Two Khaya-specific pneumatic lifting cylinders
When activated, the compressor supplies air pressure to the cylinders, which assist the existing roof-opening mechanism. The result is controlled, balanced lifting support rather than a sudden or uncontrolled movement.
The system assists the opening process, but it does not change the Khaya roof load limit. All rooftop equipment must remain within Alu-Cab's specified capacity and be positioned correctly.
Perfect for a Loaded Khaya Roof
The Air Assist Kit is particularly useful when your Khaya is equipped with approved rooftop accessories such as:
- Solar panels
- Alu-Cab load bars
- Lightweight rooftop cargo
- Other compatible Khaya roof accessories
Roof-mounted weight affects how easily the Khaya opens. Heavier equipment should generally be positioned toward the front of the roof, with lighter items such as solar panels located toward the rear.
Important: Pneumatic Air Assist helps lift up to 40 kg of added roof load. It does not increase the Khaya's approved roof packing capacity or replace proper load placement.
Why We Like It
This is a very Alu-Cab kind of accessory. It does not add flash for the sake of flash. It solves a real problem and makes the camper easier to live with every time you use it.
A solar-equipped Khaya is more independent, but the added roof weight can make opening more demanding. Pneumatic Air Assist gives you the benefit of rooftop equipment without making camp setup feel like a workout.
For frequent travellers, customers carrying roof-mounted gear or anyone who wants the easiest possible setup, this is one of the smartest Khaya upgrades available.
