Stewart & Sons Engineering – 7O Years of Craftsmanship & Safety

At Stewart & Sons Engineering, we take the safety of our community and our clients seriously. We offer the ability to purchase tailor-made, fully customised seat belts and restraints for your car, truck, or utility vehicle. Our custom engineering capabilities enable us to keep you safe and secure when on the road. It’s not enough for us to simply develop a line of safety features and products and to improve on the design of seat belts and restraints. In today’s world, the seats and anchor points vary hugely and can be so specific that they really require a focus on full customisation.

We can offer custom colours to brighten the look of your vehicle and show your personality, along with customised angles, measurements or brackets for your seatbelt. Better yet, all our work is street-legal and follows all legal requirements. 

Maybe you’re interested in being an innovator and implementing a four-point seatbelt, we can help make that happen!

Custom Seatbelts – Built for Compliance and Safety

That deceptively simple strap you click in when you hop into your car or truck is actually is made up of a surprising amount of engineering detail. To keep you safe, these little belts made of just a few pounds of nylon and steel require a great deal of thought and engineering. Seat belts save many lives, and in fact, there is no other vehicle safety device that can boast as many lives saved as this seemingly simple three-point belt.

An engineer at Volvo invented the seatbelt in 1959 but today’s design features a great deal of differences to the original. Just as cars have advanced and roads have become more dangerous, seatbelts have needed to adapt and improve to match the increased danger. Even today, further design modifications are being made to keep the millions of drivers around the world as safe as possible.

The Importance of Safety-Compliant Seatbelts

A seatbelt is the first line of defence in an accident, but if it doesn’t meet Australian Safety Standards (AS/NZS 2596 & ISO 6683), it could fail when it’s needed most. Poorly installed or non-compliant seatbelts increase the risk of injury, while outdated systems may not offer the restraint strength required for modern vehicles. Ensuring compliance means correct anchoring, high-tensile webbing and secure locking mechanisms, all designed to withstand impact forces. Whether replacing worn-out seatbelts, modifying seating capacity or upgrading for industrial use, professional installation ensures legal roadworthiness, passenger safety and long-term reliability.

Benefits of Upgrading to Custom Toolboxes

Standard toolboxes often lack the durability and functionality needed for demanding jobs, leading to disorganised tools, exposure to harsh weather and increased theft risk. A custom-built solution ensures secure compartments, reinforced locks and weatherproof seals, preventing costly damage to valuable equipment. 

A properly fitted toolbox reduces clutter, speeds up workflow and maximises vehicle space. With options in aluminium or steel, underbody or side-mounted designs, upgrading to a custom toolbox provides long-term reliability and ease of use.

Powder Coating & Protective Finishes for Toolboxes

A powder-coated toolbox isn’t just about looks—it’s a protective barrier against rust, corrosion and UV damage. Unlike traditional paint, powder coating forms a tough, even layer that resists scratches, chipping and chemical exposure, extending the lifespan of steel and aluminium toolboxes. 

This finish also improves weather resistance, preventing moisture from compromising hinges, welds and structural integrity. Available in a variety of colours and textures, powder coating offers both durability and customisation, ensuring toolboxes maintain their strength and functionality in harsh job sites or off-road conditions.

Why Our Toolboxes Stand Out?

Whether you’re a tradie, off-roader, or fleet operator, a custom toolbox can keep your tools and gear secure, organised, and protected. We fabricate heavy-duty aluminium and steel toolboxes designed to endure Australia’s toughest conditions.

Weather-resistant builds – Sealed edges, dustproof and waterproof options
Lockable security – Heavy-duty latches, reinforced panels and tamper-proof designs
Aluminium, steel or powder-coated finishes – Built for corrosion resistance
Custom sizes and configurations – Underbody, side-mounted or full-width setups
Gas struts and reinforced hinges – Smooth operation and long-term durability

A custom toolbox enhances efficiency, keeps tools within reach and prevents damage to expensive equipment.

Road Safety Laws & Seatbelt Requirements in Australia

Australian road laws mandate the use of seatbelts in all vehicles, with strict compliance required for modified, commercial and fleet vehicles. Under the Australian Design Rules (ADR 4/06), all seatbelts must be properly anchored, meet tensile strength requirements and be suitable for the vehicle type. 

Failure to comply can lead to fines, demerit points and legal liability in an accident. Modifications affecting seating capacity, aftermarket belt replacements or child restraint installations must adhere to Queensland Department of Transport standards, ensuring vehicles remain safe, roadworthy and legally compliant.
