Every profession has different requirement but with a fully customised racking system you can tailor your mobile workspace to meet your own needs. Racking helps keep your tools, equipment and spares in perfect order, boosts productivity and reduces time wasting – all important issues for any plumbing business. The result? A better, more efficient, more popular professional with more free time too!
The photos on this page illustrate a 2023 Ford Custom L1 H1 that Syncro System fitted out for a business that installs and maintains hydraulic systems. After fitting the necessary liners, Syncro installed racking on both side walls and equipped the bulkhead with various accessories.
Just like Syncro racking components, Syncro liners are custom-made too. They are pre-shaped and pre-drilled in-house for each model of van and therefore perfectly match the design and size of the vehicle they are to be installed in.
This Ford Custom L1 H1 has been fitted with liners to protect every exposed surface. The floor is covered by a plywood floor liner with a marble-look finish. The same material covers the bulkhead. The doors are lined in honeycomb plastic panels. The floor is doubly protected by the addition of steel edge profiles to defend the plywood against wear and water ingress. Steel cups have been fitted around the original anchor rings for the same purpose, allowing easy access to them while preserving the floor liner for years to come.
Even in a small van like this Custom, which is only an H1 in height, you can still make the most of all available space and provide enough storage to keep everything neat and secure. How? By using the full height of the walls, from floor to roof, and by choosing the most efficient combination of racking elements.
On the left wall of this plumber’s Custom we have:
The solution adopted on the right of the Custom satisfies many of the needs typical of plumbers. For a start, the floor-level compartment is partly enclosed by a door that folds down to provide full access, turning the awkward space over the wheel arch into practical storage for all sort of materials.
The top of the compartment created in this way is formed by a shelf in marble-look plywood. Combined with the Syncroblock bar and lashing straps attached to the wall, this provides effective support for large items of equipment. At the top is a Multibox cabinet of pull-out transparent containers. The small space left near the sliding side door is usefully occupied by a configurable shelf.
The Syncro System catalogue is particularly rich in accessories. There are ideas for all possible requirements, including cleaning, lighting, security, ventilation and, last but not least, cargo retention. Cargo retaining accessories are found in nearly all racking systems and vary from items designed for specific purposes to more versatile products for securing all kinds of tools, equipment and goods and preventing unwanted movement during travel.
This Custom is equipped with:
