Case Holder Shelves

This shelving is a must-have for storing cases up to a width of 510mm. Primarily designed for storing power tools, the shelves are angled to prevent items falling out during transit. There are various fixing positions to keep things flexible and will arrive with two plastic stoppers that can be attached to suit the width of the items you need to store. 

bottBoxes

The ultimate miscellaneous storage accessory, bottBoxes are perfect for all parts, tools and components. Whether you want to keep them fixed in the van or transport them onto the job, this accessory works with you to keep things efficient and organised. An extra element that customers often find useful is the see-through front panels. This gives tradespeople the insight to manage stock without rummaging around or unstacking boxes to open them up.

Cable Reel Holder Shelf

Available to shop in two sizes, this is such a handy accessory for Electricians working with reels of cable. This trough-shaped shelf has tapered sides for carrying varying sizes of reel and cylindrical shaped items. When you’re onsite, quick access to multiple items is fundamental, and this shelf accessory makes it easy to grab and go!

Systainer3 Organisers

This hard-wearing and practical accessory combines organisation with safety. You can easily shut, stack, secure and store with the innovative T-LOC element: opening, closing and connecting with just one turn. The Systainer3 integrates seamlessly into bott Smartvan van racking systems with side mounted guide rails to give you secure and adaptable transport between sites.

perfo Panels

Plenty of Electricians opt for Perfo Panels in their van racking set up. Made from reinforced galvanised steel, the panels allow you to safely secure and organise items and accessories.
