Van tidiness
« on: August 18, 2011, 02:27:48 pm »
Now have my Boxer van, but how do people stow ladders and poles within. I want to keep it tidy. ATM they are just on the floor risking the protectacote as they slide around. Also, for 1st floor windows, is there a ladder that will fit within the van rather than on roofracks that won't bust the bank? I'm WFP, but occasionally will go up a ladder.

eBay for a roof rack, gutter downpipes attached to the inside of your van roof for poles. Just installed my first downpipe. Will put a pic on later

Ive 2 lengths of 6"pipe fixed to the inside of the roof of the van and that holds the  poles neatly out of the way. Also got brackets fixed in between the pipe for holding ladder.

This is my old expert .... i made up a wooden frame at the top with 6" tube from B&Q for the poles and the ladders (these are steps) were on hooks. I have a Boxer now but cant make a frame as im only borrowing it




Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

OK. Thanks. I'll have look at fitting the guttering inside.
