Van Fitouts, Without the Drama: How to Customise 3DPro’s Modular Shelving for Your Trade

You’ve seen the social posts. A fully decked-out van with everything labelled, locked in, and ready to roll. But when it comes to actually doing your own fitout? It can feel like a nightmare of wrong sizes, dodgy installs, and wasted weekends.

Let’s skip the drama.

3DPro’s modular van shelving system is designed to take the guesswork out of customising your fitout — no over-engineering, no dead space, no headaches. Just smart design, heavy-duty gear, and flexibility that works with you, not against you.


Modular Means Built Your Way

At 3DPro, “modular” isn’t just a buzzword — it’s the core of how our shelving system works. Whether you’re a sparkie who needs small parts on-hand, a plumber who hauls heavy gear, or a landscaper juggling bulky tools, our system adjusts to suit your kit.

You can mix and match:

  • Shelving tiers for grab-and-go access

  • Lockable drawer units for your high-value tools

  • Cargo barriers & dividers to stop gear sliding mid-turn

  • Heavy-duty base frames that bolt straight in, no dodgy hacksaws needed

 

Fitouts That Match Your Trade Flow

Every trade works differently — so why settle for a cookie-cutter fitout?

Here’s how different pros use 3DPro shelving:

  • Electricians set up small-item drawer systems with clearly labelled bins for parts, connectors, and testers. Fast access = faster fixes.

  • Plumbers go with sliding drawers under shelves to keep heavy tools low and easy to grab.

  • Chippies & builders lean on open shelving for cordless gear, fastener boxes, and saws, with tall racks for levels and straight edges.

  • HVAC & service techs use combo units to mix drawers, bulk storage, and parts trays in one tight setup.

The best part? You can swap components in or out as your gear or crew grows.

 

 

Install Without the Headache

Don’t worry — this isn’t some overcomplicated jigsaw puzzle.

3DPro’s modular gear is designed to work with most common van models (HiAce, Transit, Express, etc.), and it bolts in using basic tools. We even give you the spec sheets and layout options to help you plan before you lift a finger.
