Panel Van Racking For Work Van

[Einion]

Hello,

My new 204 t6 DSG t32 panel van will be born in October.

I am going to use it as a proper workhorse van. I'm struggling to find decent racking ideas other than the chesp mdf versions off of eBay.

Please can anyone point me towards more decent versions or ideas or share any you have already.

Thanks

Bott is the best stuff. They have 3 different ranges. Shelving, storage solutions and accessories to suit any racking requirement :

I needed something relatively simple for storing mountain biking kit. I used the Modulo / Smart van range to do this. It was fitted by @BognorMotors

Depends what your looking for. My vans are all workhorses, and I have had them all fitted out by Mk Ply lining.
They are ply wood shelves, vehicle specific, and if you drive to them, they will fit them for free.

we went for the ebay stuff years ago and its still going strong today.

its PLY rather than MFD

there are loads of different build potions and super easy to fit.

What did you end up going for? I’ve been eyeing up Bott Smart Van not cheap when you can’t resist all the options like me but looks good stuff.

I went ebay second hand option. Bott stuff and very good. Then I got a ply type thing for behind the bulkhead. This is annoying. Rattles and squeeks and bit crap. Bott is expensive but if you can afford then yes.

Wow I didn’t even think about eBay for bott racking! Good idea I can see many hours of trawling coming up! Squeaky bulkhead yeah that’s the last thing you want... I would probably have some kind of mental breakdown after a few days driving with that. Thanks for replying mate

I went through this last year .... Shelves come in different depths and as I use dewalt tstak a lot, this defined the minimum depth I could select.

In the end I went for a sortimo system .... Not cheap, but giant mechano you can change with heaps of options.

My t,6 is a twin side door kombi so space is at a premium.

Looks really smart, what I liked about bott smart van is the false half floor you can get, which I think immediately gives you a load more usable room. Sortimo does look great, It’s got me thinking about putting all my Makita gear in sortimo boxes, I’ve still got a Bosch sortimo box from my first ever combi drill, I used it for everything and is no longer with us but the box is going strong with all my drill bits etc in.

There's a van racking group on Facebook with all kinds of different setups on it.

Looks good. Twin slider too?

 

[John Fletcher]

Yes. It has the same type of drawer on both sides going under the false floor.
