[DrunkenRockMonkey]

Hi all,
Im in the market for a Ovano style bed/ Drawer system.
I have just taken delivery of my new Kombi SWB and looking to get a system for all my work tools. mostly festoon so in systainer 3 boxes
Im a joiner specialising in kitchens so need to get something sorted soon as my old work van is going in the next few weeks.
Also would be great to here from anyone with experience using one for work.

Many Thanks Kev

Personally I love mine, it’s so handy being able to see and have access to all your tools. It’s far better than having to get into the back of the van to access your tools too.
Also allows plenty of space to carry/store large items in the ‘bed’ position.

How do you deal with spirt levels etc?
The longest stuff I have is 6ft level which needs to go somewhere along with laser pole.
Wondering if a narrow one is worth it but would be loosing a fair bit of storage space.

I went for a Forty Winks bed and slide away pull out tray. Works well, Ali not wood but same hinges I believe. Spirit levels do slide down the side between tray and wheel arch

My levels go down the side of my ovano love mine wouldn’t be without it now

That’s what I’m aiming for.
How do the edges hold up pulling you Kapex in and out?

Very robust holds up to the rough and tumble of work and wipes down clean and comes up like new when I use it for the wkend

There is a gap down the size for items, failing that you could build a ‘shelf’ for it to fit along the side of the unit or put it diagonal on the top. I put 6 tread steps diagonally in the ‘up position’ (where it has a bulk head) or 5 tread width ways in the folded up position (the one where you can see out the back window).

Have a look at blokpod, they’ll do something perfect for what you’re after

Only just fitted mine. Bought new from Transporter HQ. LWB version though.

Thanks for the reply.
I ended up buying one last week as I can put Hamid the cost through my books as I use the van for work.
