Van fit-out for roofers

Fitting out a van for roofers is done to measure, so the price depends on three factors: the size of your van, your choice of material and the number of modules.

• Size: a compact city van needs fewer modules than a large L3H3.
• Material: steel is the cheapest option, aluminium is up to 30% lighter.
• Configuration: from a roof rack with a ladder lift to a complete fit-out with a gas cylinder holder and protected load space.

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.

The layout follows your roofs: if you mostly work with tiles and slates, a strong roof rack, lashing rails and a protected load floor for heavy, dusty material come first. If you mostly do flat roofs, your gas cylinders, burner and rolls take priority. Your ladders go up and down every day in any case, so they deserve a rack with a lowering function. We draw up the layout together with you.

With a lowering roof rack: the system comes down to street level, you slide your ladder onto it and the rack lifts everything up in a controlled way. Lowering is braked, so nothing comes down with a bang. The racks are TÜV GS certified and you operate them alone, without lifting above your shoulders.

You transport gas cylinders upright and properly secured, so they cannot tip over or roll when you brake hard. In our fit-out they stand in a holder with a strap, and your burner and accessories get their own compartment. The complete fit-out is crash tested (TÜV GS, ECE R17, CE), so even your most dangerous cargo stays in place.

Yes. The system is modular: you add drawers, holders or racking later without replacing the existing fit-out. If a second van joins your fleet, you fit it out identically. That way your employee finds everything straight away and the quality of the work stays the same, whoever is driving.

We fit a standard fit-out smoothly; a complete fit-out is usually ready within two working days. We schedule the fitting shortly after your van is delivered. That way you never miss a job. On every fit-out you also get a 5-year full fit-out warranty.

Yes. We have fitting plans for almost every make and model, from a compact city van to a large L3H3, and roof racks for different roof lengths and roof profiles. Everything is anchored on the original mounting points of your vehicle, so a leased van is fine too. Together with you, we look at what fits your model.

In the short term it is, but a self-welded rack has no lowering function and is not crash tested: you keep lifting above your shoulders every day, and in a collision a loose construction on your roof is a danger to everyone on the road. Our rack is TÜV GS certified, lowers in a braked way to street level and lasts through several vans. If you take fitting out your van as a roofer seriously, you earn that difference back in time, safety and your own back.

Yes. Fitting out a van for roofers is largely about what happens on top of the van: ladders, long battens and gutters travel on the roof. The layout therefore focuses on a roof rack with a lowering function and LED lighting, a holder for your gas cylinders and a load space that can withstand grit and wet material.

Inside, your burner, ratchet straps and small materials each get their own fixed place. Guntro designs the whole thing around your work sequence.
