I've had the same problem as your originally shelves which caused nightmare & time wasting. I was thinking of simpliar drawers systems, platform for boxes, chop, tablesaw etc as this sounds perfect solution as thinking of contacting van solution which is abit embarrassing cos I'm chippy but you made me realise it doesn't matter! Great video! 😊
I would never get a low roof van again much better with a high roof I have a custom l2h2 and love it can stand up in the back get all my gear in and loads of materials 😊
@keelsjoineryconstructionltd Same. The company I'm with just bought a larger van and I kitted it out to be able to hold all we need plus haul the cabinets I'm installing. I bought the old van for myself and am kitting it out soon. I know I can never get large materials and cabinets in the old one, so I won't even bother. I'm just going to use the space more efficiently in being able to carry all my tools and get them in and out more efficiently than how it used to be. Great video👍🏻
That rolling tool box is the bane of my existence. Mines just full of junk that gets used once in a blue moon cuz ill use the wrong tool just to avoid opening it
@@joehutchings101 needs must, where else was I supposed to park? 😂 main reason I drove down so late was for it to be parked there for the least amount of time possible
What ply did you use foe this. Is it just standard 18mm ply or light weight stuff. I raised the floor in my transit custom a few weeks ago. Similar principle but alot more basic than this and was worried about the extra weight from the 2 sheets of 18mm ply that went into it.
@@keelsjoineryconstructionltd of course it’s possible! I have a man tge, high roof. I honestly don’t know how I managed before it. It’s not cheap a month, but if I can manage you can manage. Especially with the social media income also! Go for it
@@keelsjoineryconstructionltd mine gets throu the drive threw fine lucky we don’t have the parking with the high restriction up here and I have a car for when am not in the van yal have to splash out 😂
Master your trade and you wont need any of that gear in the van. First class joiners dont need all that stuff. You have far too much unnecessary garbage in there.
That’s a ridiculous comment, you could travel the length of the country in a horse and cart but why would you, it’s all about job efficiency, we’ve all worked with that lad who turns up with a hand saw and a philips screwdriver in a Tesco bag and spends an hour in the back of his van looking for a pencil. I know who I’d hire
What a moron you are. Obviously still in the dark ages. The racking will make life a lot easier so he’s not spending ages looking for that one tool he needs. The unnecessary garbage will make him a lot more efficient and improve the quality of his work. We have all worked with that one whopper that turns up with a hand saw, “I don’t need any power tools me”. We have also worked with people that can’t find anything in their van and waste so much time going back and forth trying to find stuff. It’s all stackable so he can take in everything he needs at once, What he does need is a new van with a high roof so he can stand up in the back of it 😀

Tidy 👍. Also great to see you never got done over on the premier inn car park 🤟.
Keel a van next size up would be better. We do kitchens and we can stand up in r van. 👍

That’s some skill building the system out.
Table saw would annoy me there though - I’d have it at bulkhead to leave more open space in back 😂

Super idea for work van
I’d definitely be go up size mate, the customs are good jobbing vans but you’re growing and growing definitely get the bigger transit or similar.
waauw it looks nice, but i think there is missing some carpets on the sides. an on top there should be an alide out tray insted
How has it been since you installed the racking ????
The guy 16:38 in gave me the absolute fear. What mad man drills towards their chest 😂😂
A mad man 😂

Sorry, I skimmed through the start. Was there any reason you never did this yourself?
Well done
All that wood must add a lot of weight
I'm not the only one who uses a pen to mark things out
you could take all the tools out at the weekend and go camping in it
@@Davidl-ux5ke that was the major plan behind this build mate 🫡
Decent that mate , where was your table saw
@@neilhowarth9362 thank you 🫡 table saw sits behind the side door
The main issue is the van isn’t big enough. That’s a plumbers van!
@@MrAidanfleming I agree but unfortunately having a bigger van for me just wouldn’t be possible, would love nothing more than to get a big VW crafter

How much was it if u don’t mind sharing?
@@darrenfrost9474 roughly £1600, would need to contact Van Fit Solutions directly as every van is different 🫡
High roof so much easier to work out of

@@thomascallaghan5988 thank you man appreciate it 🤝🏼
Nice looking good 👍
Mind ur head lol
Buy a full sized van, Customs are alright for sparkies, proper tools need a bigger home.
Buy a bigger van?
You need a bigger van
@@roypateman470 I definitely do 😢

Definatly. I can build anything you can think of with a hand saw and a Phillips head screwdriver.
