Why Choose Vehicle-Specific Van Drawers Instead of a Generic System?

A van drawer system should fit both the vehicle and the way you work. The wheel arches, door openings and equipment you carry all affect where drawers can sit and how they can open. Choosing a generic box by its outside dimensions is only part of the decision.

Start with access, not drawer count

Rear drawers suit equipment collected at the back of the van. Sliding-door drawers put storage beside the side opening. Opposed layouts provide access from both sliding doors, where the van and configuration allow it.

More drawers are useful only if the layout still lets you reach the gear you use. Consider which door you use at a job, the items you collect most often and whether you also need shelving or a sliding deck.

Why the van model matters

Lawson drawer layouts are matched to supported vehicles and confirmed before manufacture. Our van range includes current and previous-model HiAce, Ford Transit Custom, Hyundai Staria Load, Hyundai iLoad and LDV G10 Plus.

The available choices differ. The previous-model HiAce has one sliding door as standard, so driver-side opposed access is not offered. The single side drawer and three-drawer layouts belong to the smaller Hyundai and LDV applications; they are not interchangeable with every HiAce or Transit layout.

Leave room for the complete fit-out

Drawer-top shelving, Access Shelving and slides need their own operating space. A layout should be checked as a whole rather than ordering several modules that compete for the same position.

Explore van drawer layouts or choose your vehicle through Van Systems. We confirm the model, door arrangement, available dimensions and agreed layout before building.
