What accessories can you add to a double cab van?
You can add different accessories to a double-cab van, including protective solutions such as rubber mats and seat covers, cargo space organisation such as toolboxes and racks, and technical aids such as reversing cameras and navigation systems. These accessories improve functionality, protect your investment and make your daily work more efficient. The choice depends on your specific business needs and the type of work you do.
Why add accessories to your double cab?
Accessories make your van double cab better suited to your specific operations. They improve organisation, increase safety and allow you to work more efficiently. Moreover, the right accessories protect your vehicle from wear and tear, preserving its long-term value.
A standard van is designed for general use, but your business probably has specific requirements. If you work with tools every day, you want them organised and safely stored. Do you work with a team? Then comfortable seating and practical storage spaces are important. By adding the right accessories, you transform a standard vehicle into a workplace on wheels that perfectly suits your activities.
In addition, a well-equipped van increases productivity. You save time because everything is in its place, you need to drive back and forth less often because you can carry more, and you prevent damage to materials through proper fastening. For many entrepreneurs, the right accessories pay for themselves by saving time and reducing material loss.
What protective accessories are important for your double cab?
Protective accessories help keep your van double cab in good condition and protect its resale value. Rubber floor mats are one of the most practical investments, as they protect the original flooring from dirt, mud and moisture. They are easy to clean and prevent permanent stains and damage.
Seat covers are also valuable, especially if several people drive your bus or if you regularly get into the cabin with dirty work clothes. Good covers protect the original upholstery and are often easy to remove and wash. This keeps your cab fresh and professional, which is important if you bring customers along or if you want to sell or trade in your vehicle later.
Furthermore, bumper guards, mudguards and protective coatings are useful additions. A bumper protector prevents scratches and dents when loading and unloading, while extra wings protect your paintwork from stone chips. For the load compartment, you can add wall protection so that tools and materials do not damage the inside of your van. These relatively small investments prevent bigger repair costs later.
How to make the cargo space of your double cab smarter?
A well-organised loading area makes the difference between chaotic searching and efficient working. Toolboxes and racking systems are the basis of a smart layout. With fixed racks, you create overview and prevent items from being mixed up while driving. This not only saves time, but also increases safety because loose objects can be dangerous in an emergency stop.
Cargo nets and lashing straps are indispensable for securing larger items. They ensure your cargo stays in place, even during sharp turns or sudden braking. For companies that regularly transport heavy goods, loading clamps and lashing points are handy. These let you load and unload flexibly without having to think up a new solution every time.
Partitions between the cabin and cargo space are important for safety. They prevent objects from shooting forward in the event of a collision. For specific applications, there are also specialised solutions such as tool carriers, exterior ladder holders, or built-in workbenches. If you regularly load heavy items, a tailgate or ramp can ease the work considerably.
What technical accessories make your job easier?
Modern technical accessories improve comfort and safety while driving. A reversing camera is particularly useful with a double cab, as rear visibility can be limited, especially with a full cargo area. Parking sensors help when manoeuvring on tight construction sites or in busy city centres.
A good navigation system saves time and fuel by choosing the best routes. Modern systems take the dimensions of your van into account and avoid bridges that are too low or streets that are too narrow. A phone holder and USB charging points are almost indispensable these days, as your phone often functions as a means of communication, navigation and administration tool at the same time.
Dashcams are becoming increasingly popular as they provide evidence in accidents or damage disputes. Bluetooth connectivity means you can safely make calls while driving without taking your hands off the wheel. For longer drives, comfort accessories such as an extra sun visor, cup holders or a cooler can make all the difference in how pleasant your working day is.
