FAQs

How strong is the racking for heavy recovery equipment?
VANKIT racking is built from high‑strength steel and reinforced lower bays, designed to handle jump packs, tow gear, chains and other heavy recovery kit without flexing or movement.
Will the racking stop tools and equipment shifting while driving?
Yes — locking drawers, fixed shelves and secure tie‑down points keep everything stable, even during fast‑response driving or uneven roadside terrain.
Can the racking be configured for my specific recovery setup?
Absolutely. Every system is modular, allowing you to add shelves, drawers, bin racks, strap storage, cone holders and dedicated bays for electrical or hydraulic equipment.
Is the racking designed to improve workflow at the roadside?
It is — layouts are built around quick‑access areas, ensuring high‑use items like jump packs, tow straps and safety gear are positioned exactly where you need them.
Does the racking help keep the van organised and compliant?
Yes — structured storage reduces clutter, supports safer working conditions, and helps ensure PPE, spill kits and warning equipment are stored correctly and easy to reach.
