CRYSTAL LAKE, IL - WEATHER GUARD is introducing brand new van storage solutions for the Ford Transit Connect van. The new storage solutions are designed and crafted to fit the Transit Connect, a commercial vehicle in Europe now available in the U.S. market.
The van storage solutions can be adapted to just about any business that needs van storage. WEATHER GUARD equipment offers the most options for specific trades and professions such as general contracting, plumbing, HVAC, electrical, telecom, parcel delivery, the locksmith trade and many more.
Special features of the storage solutions include a custom bulkhead, space-maximizing design and a wide-range of shelving and accessory options.
The custom bulkhead provides excellent protection against shifting loads, minimizes rattling and optimizes space.

Shelving units fit tightly to the Transit Connect¹s walls freeing up floor space while 12 and 14 shelf widths provide storage flexibility.
