hey, did you install the mobiframe over this insulation? not sure that would be a pass for the adhesion for crash safety.

You have a point. Whilst the dodo products (or other similar ones) are pretty well stuck down, they wouldn’t be as secure as the adhesive directly onto the bare metal. For this reason I specifically asked about needing insulation prior to fitting the floor and MOBIFRAME said you didn’t need it, so I didn’t put any down.

took the plunge on mobiframe and a 120 bed. Then promptly bottled it nd went for the 112cm bed to give me more kitchen unit options. from what i could gather I would lose the option of a hob/sink in the worktop.
The Installation went quite well! hardest bit was the bulkhead removal which i was dreading from memories of my last conversion.
Another post mentioned the pillar covers needing to be trimmed (approx 16mm) came out quite tidy. Top tip would be DO NOT get the adhesive on your hands

I hope not, the testing for the safety quotes max weight 135kg, won't be valid if it does weigh more!
Where does it state this - do you have the reference?
Just did some googling and yep it’s claimed at 135kg (SAF43) - just feels a lot heavier when trying to get into the van
I also found this dimensions pdf which could be useful for others…

has anyone got a good fitting step/rear threshold for the mobiframe floor? I have heard the cali step is the one, but struggling to re-find my own info at the moment 
Hi mate, Camper Warehouse has the side step, it's specifically designed for the floor height. Rear threshold is still work in progress, probably be available this summer.has anyone got a good fitting step/rear threshold for the mobiframe floor? I have heard the cali step is the one, but struggling to re-find my own info at the moment

how did i miss this? thank you
For the tailgate threshold I purchased this one from Van-X. Fits perfectly and even accommodates my THQ detachable cover.
It’s longer so covers the carpet join, wider so overlaps the edging of floor and deeper so accommodates the thicker floor.

I’ve included the side step pic too, these were from campervan warehouse. You’ll need to cut your own holes for the lights tho.

couldn't find it on the website so emailed them and they said its going on the site tuesday/wednesday. (3rd/4th June 2025) they never acknowledged a rear threshold but said the transporter HQ one goes on (very snug). Just a heads up for anyone following this thread.

Well, I spoke to people about this, the adhesive on the floor insulation, sticks like sh1t to a blanket, I certainly wouldn't want to try to remove it (I installed it, and it was a LONG process to do properly).
It's a large area which is being glued down and in addition to this, two bolts are installed at the rear (10mm steel fixing can take around 1 ton shear).
I love my family and I certainly wouldn't risk their injury, but I take my work over that of anyone paind to do it. It's your call, just do it thoroughly if you do it at all.

exactly. but on top of the insulation you are relying on the adhesion of the insulation's which is unknown and untested as far as crash tests. The M10's go through the floor only therefore no structure, the bolts have that sheer for but 1mm floor doesn't, so sheer reduced. if it's not adhered directly to the van metalwork you are outside of manufacturer and the adhesives maker's spec and thus in untested area.
yes i've been through the process too and there is a lot of parameters to hit in order to do properly. i also wouldn't risk my family hence following guide to the letter.
New Mobiframe floor finally fitted, along with Webasto heater. Internal carpeting now done and side rail with LED lights also installed.
Once the rest is done and I've cleaned the poor van, I will post some more pictures.
Incidentally, I don't think the Mobiframe table (seen in photo) is worth £999!

Has anyone purchased the universal accessory mount that allows you to fit custom furniture? I’m looking at whether I could use these to secure a subwoofer to the rails. Either by using that bracket or trying to reverse engineer the system and get something made up. The brackets aren’t in stock and no eta. If nobody has any insight on them, perhaps someone can advise how securely the bike mounts are when tightened? One question I have is whether they would be likely to rattle.
Also separate question - for anyone who has bought the cycle mount any issues? It looks like the design has changed from the one in the mobiframe brochure to the one on the camper warehouse website?
Cheers

Hi, the system uses standard 20mm ‘heads’ so essentially any fixings of that size can be used - check the usual popular markets.
Also, if you cut or file away the first ‘hole’ lip you can slide in 20mm T bolts, which then grip a bit more than the circular 20mm heads. Slide them in, tighten down a nut or hand wheel and they don’t move. Other systems available, not just from Mobiframe, use mechanisms to hook over the holes either side of the head (which fixes between holes obviously) to prevent sliding along. I haven’t found them necessary, a tightened T bolt is solid enough. The sub won’t be all that hefty anyway.
Thanks. I actually just spoke to a helpful chap at camper warehouse who told me these are same as many rails used in ambulances and aircraft etc so advised looking on Amazon. So with that in mind, can someone confirm that something like this would work please? It has dimensions on the pics. I think the key is the gap between the holes on the rails.
