Ford Transit Van Shelving Benefits: Organization, Efficiency and Safety
Advantage Outfitters has a variety of shelving units that can help organize the cargo area of your Ford Transit van. The greatest benefits of installing Transit individual shelving units include:
1. Staying Organized
Installing shelving in your Ford Transit van will help keep your tools organized, so you can avoid having to sort through a pile of tools in the back of your van on every job. You will always know where the right tool is when you need it for a client. You will be able to complete your jobs quickly and efficiently.
2. Boosting Efficiency
The organization provided by shelving will keep your job routine at its most efficient. The minutes you will save on your jobs will give you extra time for more jobs each week, resulting in higher revenue.
3. Saving Money
Without proper organization, you will inevitably lose or misplace your tools. Stolen tools or supplies will go unnoticed. Shelving offers superior protection for your products, preventing damages and reducing the need for replacements.
4. Reducing Your Risk of Injury
Your tools pose a danger on the road when you make a sudden stop. You want to ensure your tools are put away to keep them from flying out of the cargo area. With your tools stored in shelving — and with the addition of a partition for your work van — you can avoid this hazard entirely.
5. Reducing Noise
Loose tools bang around and make a lot of noise. Shelving keeps your tools in place so you can focus on driving.
Types of Shelving Available for Your Ford Transit Van
Advantage Outfitters stocks Ford Transit shelving units from Ranger Design, Packd and Weather Guard, covering 130", 148" and 148" Extended wheelbases across low, medium and high roof configurations. Choose from four shelving types:
- Solid standard shelving: The most popular option for tradespeople. Sturdy, fixed shelves at adjustable heights.
- Solid extra-deep shelving: Wider shelves for larger tools and equipment.
- Solid heavy-duty shelving: Reinforced for heavier loads.
- Fold-away shelving: Folds flat when not in use, freeing up cargo space for larger items.
Ford Transit Steel vs. Aluminum Shelving: Which Is Right for Your Van?
Steel and aluminum are both effective materials for Ford Transit vans. The type of shelving you choose depends on the equipment, tools and products you will store in your work van. It also depends on your needs.
Since aluminum is lighter, it helps with your fuel economy. This can be especially helpful if you have a wide range for your service area. It will provide the best possible gas mileage and is good for frequent city driving. Although aluminum is lighter, it is not any less durable than steel.
Steel is a good option if you want a smaller upfront cost. Steel shelving units are probably your best option if you often drive through rough terrain, uneven lanes or road construction. For travel through rural communities, steel shelving helps protect your equipment from damage.
