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. For greater visibility, a wire mesh bulkhead is available along with wire mesh window screens. Shelving units fit tightly to the Transit Connect¹s walls freeing up floor space while 12 and 14 shelf widths provide storage flexibility.
In addition, a wide-range of cabinets, drawer units and floor storage options can be customized to specific requirements. Additional products such as the PACK RAT and ITEMIZER drawer units enhance efficiency and each is available in a variety of sizes, compartments and divider configurations.
WEATHER GUARD roof storage offers additional capacity. Racks are versatile and strong to haul multiple ladders and equipment. A gas spring assisted Quick Clamp rack option makes for easy loading and unloading. Optional cross member roof racks also are available.
General contractors, plumbers, electricians, locksmiths you name it -- these new van storage solutions can safely accommodate what they need to carry, said Mike Sover, Senior Product Manager. These products are designed to be rugged and withstand years of vigorous use since they¹re so durable and offer a limited lifetime warranty.
