VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER RACKING FOR A PLUMBER IN VENETO
A Volkswagen Transporter L1 H1 with drawers, case compartments and a Multibox cabinet of 24 transparent drawers
A Volkswagen Transporter fitted out for a plumber in Veneto
On this page we present the Syncro racking system installed in a Volkswagen Transporter L1 H1 for a plumber based in Italy’s Veneto region. The customer asked for:
- a large number of enclosed containers for small items and spares
- a clear central aisle and a bulkhead left free but fitted with accessories for securing bulky cargo
- good lighting inside the van
Let’s take a closer look at the choices made.
Liners for vans: an optional that is almost mandatory
No aspect of fitting out a van is actually mandatory, but there is one precaution that all Syncro racking centres strongly recommend to avoid dents, scratches and rust. Fit bodywork protection! Liners, in whatever material you choose, should always be installed before any racking and accessories.
The owner of the Volkswagen Transporter only wanted a floor liner, and chose a version in resin-coated marine plywood.
Syncro can also fit custom-made door, wheel arch, bulkhead and roof liners in all models of van.
The left side: drawers, removable bins and case compartments
The left wall of this plumber’s Volkswagen Transporter is fitted with:
- three metal drawers with non-slip mats and internal space dividers
- two open shelves for plastic bins, side by side
- two case compartments with lashing straps, one above the other
- a floor-level compartment over the wheel arch, enclosed by a lift-up door
- a bar rack with a flange and lashing strap on the racking side panel
- a pull-out case tray holding two metal service cases
- two top shelves.
On the right: everything in view in transparent drawers
The plumber who owns the Volkswagen Transporter most wanted to find small items like seals and fittings as quickly as possible, so he asked for transparent storage for all his small and medium size parts and materials.
The racking on the right therefore consists of a floor-level compartment with a lift-up door and a Multibox cabinet with a total of 24 transparent drawers: 16 pull-out drawers in the two bottom rows and eight larger drawers at the top that also tilt.
A clear bulkhead with a Syncroblock bar
The bulkhead has been left in its original condition apart from the addition of a Syncroblock bar with attachments and lashing straps. This versatile solution enables cargo of all shapes and sizes to be carried in complete safety inside the van.
What’s the best configuration for your work?
As this Volkswagen Transporter shows, there is no such thing as a standard solution for plumbers, just as there is no standard answer to the needs of electricians, service engineers, or anybody else.
The modular design of Syncro racking allows all tradesmen and professionals to find exactly the right solution for their own van and their own working methods and preferences.
