Keep your tools organized, secure, and accessible with System Edström’s market-leading van shelving systems. Our van racking systems are designed to work seamlessly with our shelving solutions for professional users, creating a fully integrated van storage solution. Unlike traditional wooden racking, our shelving is manufactured from high-strength steel.

Whether you drive a small courier van or a large mobile workshop, our modular design allows you to build the perfect storage solution. We offer shelf dividers, so you can arrange compartments however you require them. We also have adjustable van shelves, so you can alter the width to your requirements. And our dropfronts allow you to access items easily.

Shelving system that works for you

System Edström’s van shelves are designed to organise your tools and equipment to make the most of your mobile workplace.

Shelves for all uses

With our dropfront shelves, you don’t need to pull out or lift your items over any edges. Simply flip the entire front of the shelf down and can pull the item straight out. This also allows us to place the shelves closer together vertically, making the most of the space. Our dropfront shelves come in widths of 605 mm, 784 mm, 907 mm, 997 mm, and 1,176 mm. Standard depths are 300 mm and 470 mm.

Dropfront shelves can also be attached to the floor, making for more usable space. Our sturdy dividers allow you to split the shelves into separate compartments.

Four van shelving ideas for your mobile workplace

A well-designed van interior makes work smoother, keeps you organised, and helps protect both you and your kit. System Edström provides van racking and interiors that combine the highest levels of safety with storage solutions tailored to your trade, no matter what your profession is.

What to think about: Creating a safe, practical mobile workspace means balancing a few essentials. Here are four van shelving ideas that cover the big three: efficiency, safety, and organisation.

1. Van tool storage

Good tool storage keeps your workspace tidy, even when space is tight. It protects your tools so they last longer and keeps them close to hand when you need them. With System Edström racking, you can adapt the design to fit the way you work, whatever tools you use.

2. Van storage drawers

Drawers are a smart choice if you’ve got a mix of tools and kit. They keep everything within easy reach and work perfectly alongside our shelving systems. We offer a wide range: workbench drawers, toolbox drawers and under-floor drawers. Pick the set-up that best suits your trade.

3. Dropfront shelves

Dropfront shelves help you squeeze more out of your space. They let you mount shelves higher in the van while still keeping boxes easy to pull out, with no awkward lifting over an edge. This means more storage, less hassle and better organisation.

4. Flipfront shelving

Our adjustable flipfront shelving gives you flexibility. You can set widths anywhere between 1830mm and 3460mm, and the front simply folds down so you can load and unload quickly. Fixed-width versions (160mm or 300mm) are also available.

Safe, efficient, organised

Every one of these van shelving ideas helps you work smarter:

  • Organisation: A well-ordered van looks professional and saves money; no more lost or damaged tools.
  • Efficiency: Spend less time hunting for kit and more time getting the job done.
  • Safety: You don’t need to compromise on safety just because you work out of a van. We crash-test our products for peace of mind.

We understand that you may have some questions in mind, and we’re here to provide answers and assist you. If you don’t find answers here you can always get in touch with us.

While our van shelving systems come with clear instructions for those who prefer self-installation, we highly recommend using one of our authorised dealers for the installation. This ensures the racking is mounted safely using the correct fixing points. Plus, professional installation by an authorised partner extends your warranty to 5 years.

Steel van shelving is significantly superior to plywood in terms of safety and weight. Our high-strength steel systems are lighter than wood, which increases your vehicle’s available payload and improves fuel economy (or range for EVs). Furthermore, our steel shelving is crash-tested to ensure it stays securely attached in the event of a collision, protecting the driver from loose cargo, something wooden shelving often fails to do.

Yes, flexibility is the core of the System Edström design. Our van shelving system is fully modular. You can adjust the height and depth of the shelves, add dividers, rubber mats, or integrate drawers and plastic bins. This allows you to create a bespoke layout that perfectly matches your workflow and the specific tools you carry daily.

Absolutely. We offer van shelving kits tailored for every major van manufacturer in the UK, including Ford, Volkswagen, Vauxhall, Renault, and Mercedes-Benz. Because our system is modular, it can be configured to fit any wheelbase or roof height, ensuring a seamless fit that utilize every inch of your cargo space.
