Van racking and storage

You can make the most efficient use of the available space in your commercial vehicle by choosing our bespoke racking and storage solutions. Internal racking, shelving and dividers utilise dead space, while modular storage solutions, hand wash systems and floor and side-mounted cargo lashings can also be easily installed. Also consider our external storage options, including roof racks and glass carriers.

Ply lining

Creating a lining for the interior of your van is no problem thanks to our ply lining kits. Available in a variety of sizes, they're suitable for covering floors, walls and wheel arches. Bespoke solutions can also be requested. Our ply lining service is ideal if you intend to have Speedliner interior spray-on applied to your van.

​Reversing aids and cameras

An increasing number of truck and van conversions involve the installation of reversing aids and cameras to increase safety for drivers and other road users. Channel Commercials specialises in technology to remove blind spots and reduce the risk of accidents. We fit camera systems, bleepers, Backscan and Sidescan proximity systems, along with FORS and Cross Rail-compliant devices.

Vehicle safety lighting

Improving a vehicle's visibility increases safety for the driver, pedestrians and other road users. Our truck and van conversions team can fit a wide selection of vehicle lighting kits, from strobes and rear LED lights to auxiliary fog lamps, spot lamps and combi lamp kits. We can supply Cross Rail and FORS-compliant lighting equipment as requested.

Tail lifts

By installing your commercial vehicle with a fold-away or vertical tail lift you'll be able to handle heavy shipments with ease. Our experienced engineers can install lifts capable of handling loads weighing up to 2,000kg to any van or HGV, regardless of make or model. In addition, tail lift servicing, repair work, weight testing and official LOLER examinations can be booked through all four of our workshops in Ashford, Sevenoaks, Strood and Canterbury.
