Carrying loads safely in your van
Carrying loads safely in your van starts with a restraint you can clip in within seconds. Everything stays firmly in place: no projectiles in an emergency stop, no damaged machines and a load floor that lasts for years.
In an emergency stop everything stays put, even in the back
One cyclist suddenly crosses, and everything in the back comes forward. A loose machine of thirty kilos becomes a projectile heading for the cab in an emergency stop. That is something to lose sleep over, and rightly so.
With made-to-measure load securing you clip everything down in seconds to tested anchor points. A bulkhead also gives extra protection under hard braking: there is literally a wall between you and your load.

Your machines arrive undamaged on site, every time
How often have you pulled a machine with a crack or a scratch out of your load area? Every bend and every speed bump makes loose equipment slide and knock. That is money lost every time, and sometimes a job site that grinds to a halt.
With lashing bars, straps and anti-slip, every item stays fixed in its own place. Carrying loads safely in your van becomes a matter of seconds, not a chore of minutes.
Stronger after damage: certified to ECE R17 and TÜV GS
After an accident or damage the questions start: was your load really secured? With a bit of rope and an old carpet you are in a weak position in any dispute, even if you did your best.
A professionally fitted securing system with certified components (TÜV GS, ECE R17, CE) shows that you take your transport seriously. That makes your case stronger in disputes after damage.
TÜV certified Made to measure and up to 30% lighter: a system that grows with your load
Bricks one day, a fragile device the next. No two trips are the same, and a rigid solution then works against you instead of for you.
That is why our fit-out is always modular and extendable: you simply add extra anchor points or a partition later. If you choose aluminium, you drive up to 30% lighter: more payload and extra range for your electric van.
Good to know: aluminium secures your load just as firmly as steel, but weighs up to 30% less. You can put those kilos into extra cargo.

A load area that lasts for years and earns more
A worn-out load floor full of dents tells every buyer the same story: hard-lived. That costs you money when you sell or trade in your van.
A fixed restraint prevents sliding loads, and floor and wall lining protects against wear for years and raises the resale value. That way your protection pays for itself.
Why rope is not enough when it really matters
An old carpet to stop things sliding and a bit of rope around the load: that is how many vans drive around. Until the one time it goes wrong. Rope stretches, knots come undone and a carpet holds nothing back in an emergency stop.
Certified load securing is tested for forces you could never reproduce by hand. It is anchored to your vehicle, works in seconds and lasts for years. Carrying loads safely in your van is not a matter of luck, but of equipment.

Frequently asked questions about carrying loads safely in your van
What does carrying loads safely in your van cost?
The price of a load securing system depends on three factors: the size of your van, your choice of material and the make-up of the system.
- Size: a compact L1H1 needs fewer anchor points than a large L3H3.
- Material: steel is the cheapest option, aluminium is up to 30% lighter.
- Make-up: from a basic set with straps to a complete system with lashing bars and partitions.
That is why we work with a made-to-measure quote: that way you know exactly where you stand, with no obligation and no duty to buy.
How long does it take to fit a load securing system?
We fit a load securing system quickly after your van is delivered, so you can get back on the road quickly with anchored rails and lashing bars.
If you combine the securing with a complete fit-out or floor and wall lining, we agree a tight schedule with you beforehand, so you do not lose any working days.
Should I choose steel or aluminium for my fit-out?
For load securing, strength makes no difference: both steel and aluminium systems hold your load. The difference is in price and weight.
- Steel is the most competitively priced and can take rough loading work.
- Aluminium weighs up to 30% less and does not rust: more payload for your cargo and extra range if you drive electric.
We are happy to work out both options for you, based on what you carry every day.
Can I extend my load securing later?
Yes, all our systems are modular and can always be extended. If you suddenly carry different or heavier materials, you add extra anchor points, straps or partitions without replacing the existing fit-out.
That also makes the system worthwhile when you change vans: many parts simply move across to your next vehicle.
What if something breaks on my securing system?
Your load securing is covered by a 5-year full fit-out warranty, like all our fit-outs. If a rail or tensioner is faulty, we also arrange the repair.
Even years later you can still find parts for your system, even for older generations. Your investment stays usable for its whole lifetime.

Am I in a stronger position with my insurer with professional load securing?
A certified, professionally fitted securing system strengthens your case in disputes after damage. It shows in black and white that, as a professional, you did what you could to secure your load.
For the specific terms of your policy, it is best to check with your insurer. We give you all the documentation for the fitted system.
Aren't an old carpet and a few straps from the DIY shop enough?
For carrying loads safely in your van, loose DIY falls short. A carpet holds nothing back in an emergency stop, and loose straps without tested anchor points can come loose just when you need them.
Certified material, anchored to the vehicle structure, is tested for forces you could never reproduce by hand. It is also faster: clip in and drive off, every trip.
