Introduction
When outfitting a van for trade purposes, maximizing every inch of space while ensuring accessibility and efficiency is paramount. Custom Solutions UK specializes in tailored van racking systems that cater to the unique needs of tradespeople across different industries. This page will walk you through a specific installation, detailing how our solutions can be adapted to fit both standard and long wheelbase vans, enhancing workflow and productivity.
Part 1: Left-Hand Install
The left-hand side of the installation is a showcase of maximizing the width and utility of the van's storage capacity. By extending the installation into the side door area, we can maximize the interior workspace, though this configuration slightly reduces access through the sliding door. In standard wheelbase vans, this setup accommodates two units, whereas a long wheelbase van can fit three units seamlessly as seen here.
This area is designed to accommodate maximum storage without compromising on the ease of access to tools and supplies. For example, the lower compartments are customized for heavier, bulkier items, while the upper sections are perfect for lighter, frequently used items. Silicon holders and other tool-specific modifications are incorporated at the ends of the units, we will be looking to add clad on ends to maximise efficiency of screwing additional extras on, which can be color-coded to match corporate branding, enhancing the professional appearance.
Part 2: Right-Hand Install
The right-hand installation features two standard units alongside three wheel arch units. Each unit is equipped with adjustable shelves and customizable compartments that support efficient tool and material organization. The flexibility of this setup allows for a tailored approach to storage, suitable for various tools and equipment, from Festool systems to essential plumbing and electrical supplies.
This side of the installation includes innovations such as tilt storage compartments at the bottom, enhancing the utility for storing taller items. Each wheel box tilt storage compartment is 425 mm high, making them ideal for organizing and quickly accessing taller components silicone tubes, blue roll necessary for daily tasks.
Part 3: Levels, Rails, and Additional Top Storage
Focusing on vertical space utilization, the rear of the van features open compartments that efficiently use the available height for storing long tools and consumables. Adjustable rails and additional top storage compartments allow for the secure placement of longer items that require more depth, such as levels and pipes.
This area is not only practical but also customizable to fit specific storage needs, whether for securing delicate equipment or organizing bulkier items. The design ensures that every tool has its place, which significantly cuts down on the time spent searching for items during a job.
