GRK Van Fit Out

A tidy and organised van is the key to a smooth and enjoyable project.

I also feel it's a good advert for my work and design, and can often catch the eye of passers by when all opened up. 

​

When first starting out, and knowing less than I did now, I fitted it out with old chunk 4x2s I had laying around, but felt this was a heavy and innefficient use of the space. After a year of operating, I realised how much better I could optimise the space, and building it out using lightweight poplar ply. 

​

I was able to position the items I need daily/for every job easily, and placed the lesser used items more in the middle of the van. 

I was wondering whether I should have purchased a bigger van, but with the new fit out I actually have space to grow and a few spare boxes/areas, which I will happily now fill with more gear! 

​

It always surprises clients with how much I have squirrelled away in there, a lot of which you can't see, even with a few hidden hatches in places for a bit of fun!

​

I wanted to leave a clear half for cargo and materials, and also utilising the two side sliding doors, to create a 'walled off' cupboard style area for my mitre saw, vacuums and other items that felt naturally grouped together. 

​

Creating kits, or areas of the van for specific types of jobs has really streamlined things and made setting up/packing up a joy and so much quicker.
