A DUCATO L2 H2 FOR A CAR REPAIR SERVICE
Syncro racking in a Ducato for car repairs
Order, ergonomics and savings: you get it all from a Syncro workshop!
Installing a customised racking system can radically change the way you work:
- Orderly storage ensures that everything is always to hand.
- Ergonomic design eliminates unnecessary movements, minimises injuries, and makes your working day easier and more productive.
- With all your spares, screws and tools in the right place, you save time and money.
Every Syncro racking system is fully customised. Syncro System does not offer standard mobile workshop solutions, but always tailors equipment to suit the habits, actions and needs of users.
This page illustrates a Fiat Ducato L2 H2 transformed into a mobile workshop for a company that provides vehicle repair services.
Protective liners are always a good idea
The perfect racking system starts with liners. Syncro racking installers always recommend that you protect your van’s bodywork with floor and wall liners to protect the original sheet metal against dents, scratches and rust.
In this Ducato, the floor liner is made from aluminium tread plate with steel edge profiles at the doors. The walls are protected by panels of galvanised and painted steel finished in an attractive grey. The van’s owner did not require any bulkhead or roof liners, but these items too can be found in the Syncro catalogue, tailor-made for each model of van, and in a choice of materials.

How space is organised in the Ducato for vehicle repairs
The way in which racking and accessories are laid out determines how useful a van will be. In this case:
- The work area at the bulkhead can be accessed easily through the sliding side door, which also allows natural light to illuminate the workbench. The work area is also separate from the rest of the van, so that other operators can access the side racking even when the workbench is in use.
- The left wall provides storage for most of the tools and spare parts while the right wall accommodates a powerful compressor-generator combo, which guarantees autonomy for off-site repairs and maintenance work.

The storage area on the left of the Ducato
The storage area on this side of the Ducato consists of:
- one floor-level compartment over the wheel arch with a lift-and-rotate door and a second floor-level compartment with a sealed stainless-steel tray with bottom grille and belt-type case transport kit, an ideal combination for transporting jerry cans containing oil and fuel
- a set of four metal drawers with non-slip mats and internal space dividers
- eight configurable shelves, including one with a door.
Only one essential accessory has been installed on the left side – a classic paper roll holder. This is one of the items most frequently specified by Syncro customers to complete their van racking systems.
The right wall: the means to ensure complete autonomy
The racking on the right of this car repair service’s Ducato is quite simple. The floor-level compartment is partially enclosed by a lift-and-rotate door, then, further up, we have three shelves. The first of these is an open shelf, reinforced with a marble-look plywood panel, and houses a powerful compressor-generator combo that delivers all the electricity and compressed air needed for roadside assistance. The other two shelves are of the configurable type with non-slip mats and internal space dividers.
The racking side panel has been fitted with a professional electrical panel with a thermal-magnetic breaker behind a clear protective cover, two industrial sockets for tools and equipment and a normal service socket.
A practical and well-equipped workbench on the Ducato’s bulkhead
This Ducato for vehicle repairs boasts a separate, highly functional work area at the bulkhead that can be accessed easily through the side door.
The work surface is made from marble-look plywood and features a raised back. It is mounted on a racking column that consists of eight drawers and an open compartment at floor level. A vice is installed on the work top and reels for electric cable and compressed air hose are attached to the bulkhead above. Both reels are connected to the nearby compressor-generator combo and can be used to operate power tools and equipment outside the vehicle.
