Cargo Van Upfit Accessories
Interior Lighting
Interior cargo area lighting is essential for ensuring employee safety. LED interior lighting saves you the frustration of having to hunt down a flashlight when you’re working past traditional business hours.
Van Windows
Van windows allow you to customize your vehicle while maintaining a professional look and feel. Window styles such as the OEM-style window enhance your van’s security because it reflects a light smoke tint that allows easy visibility out but not inside the cargo space.
Running Boards and Rear Steps
Running boards and rear steps provide an easy and safe entry into your work vehicle. Van steps and running boards are constructed from sturdy steel and aluminum that are designed for years of regular use.
Cargo Restraint and Security
Safety and security should be a top priority for your work van. You and your employees transit a lot of expensive equipment, and you often have to leave the vehicle unattended. Cargo restraint and security enable you to protect your van and everything inside of it.
Cargo Van Shelving Unit Options
There are several shelving unit options to choose from, depending on the needs of your work vehicle. In addition to shelving units, shelving packages are also available and designed specifically for the make and model of your van.
Fleet Series (Hybrid Aluminum/Steel)
The Fleet Series shelving unit is tough yet lightweight to bring your work vehicle maximum value. Its aluminum, steel, and composite construction offer modular flexibility for any work vehicle model.
Pro Series (All-Aluminum)
The Pro Series distributes minimal weight to your van but provides unmatched durability and appearance for any professional. Its aluminum and composite construction provides modular flexibility.
Fold-Away Series
The Fold Away Series shelving unit maximizes interior space for delivery and carrier industries. This style offers extra-deep shelves for bulkier packages and can hold up to 250 lbs. Its gas shocks lock shelves in the up or down position, depending on your needs.
