L1H1

A small size, with vans suitable for every circumstance and every professionalism, perfect for equipment to be used daily. You can install one or more shelves inside and leave the other side of the fourgon free to avoid cluttering the compartment. In this case what can be done is specifically van setup the external behavior of the van, so we are talking about an equipment with door-all or stair-door for example.

L1H2

In this case the length “L” as you can see is exactly the same but the height changes. So our advice is a vertical type van racking, very convenient for a profession even as a plumber if you have to place longer pipes or materials. A vertical setup in this case is what you need.

L2H1

The “L2” dimension provides for a greater width and the height in this case is the basic one. However, thanks to its size, this fourgon gives you the opportunity to add more modular elements to the van racking. Thinking in this case of a tailor-made aménagement, you can have great satisfaction.

L2H2

In this case we have a really complete model, it’s the one you will probably see most often on the road. The dimensions are ideal for any working profession. You can add various shelving, wheel arch covers, custom-made wardrobes and practical shelves.

L2H3

In this case, we also recommend adding shelvings in height and why not practical shelves and containers. In later cases, such as a fourgon L3H2 or a L3H3, you may have some problems in parking or finding a suitable city space.

For a mobile workshop in general, we recommend medium vans so that they can be adapted to classic city life. In our opinion these vans are suitable as a mobile workshop precisely because they help you to carry your workshop around the city without giving you space problems.
