Renault has extended its Ready4Work range of dealer-supplied conversions to include offering racking and storage systems for the Renault Kangoo.
Renault Kangoo fitted with Ready4Work racking and storage kit
Customers can choose from two Ready4Work kits to optimise storage and load space in the back of their vans. The kits will be fitted before the van is delivered to the dealership. Prices start from £1,150 including VAT and can be included in the van’s finance package.
Similar offerings are already available for the larger Renault Trafic and Master vans, so extending this service to the smaller Kangoo makes sense. Unveiled at the 2015 Commercial Vehicle Show and developed in partnership with vehicle storage specialist Bri-Stor, the Renault Kangoo Ready4Work mobile workshop racking systems are designed to cater for the in-van storage requirements of the vast majority of small businesses and trades.
There are two versions of Ready4Work racking available.
Kit 1 is designed to provide engineering tradesmen with an economical racking solution that offers storage for tools, parts and accessories together with the option to add additional features, while Kit 2 is designed to suit the more specialised tradesmen who require an enhanced racking solution for the storage of tools and service equipment.
The Bri-stor racking offers a safe and efficient storage solution designed to optimise use of space in the Kangoo.
Both kits are constructed from lightweight, high strength Dual Phase steel with a yield strength of 800N/mm2 and feature the same tool panel assemblies, which each include six Euro bins and 500mm Storage Basket.
Kit 1 also includes a two-part phenolic coated floor (9mm plywood base with anti-slip phenolic coating to the top face) and a unit that has three sizeable tool baskets.
In addition to the tool panel assemblies, Kit 2 adds a unit with shelves and anti-slip matting together with a drawer unit module, which are supported by two heavy duty end frames with punched infill panels.
Utilising pre-assembled sections that are fixed to the van’s existing load lashing points, the kits allow easy and quick installation with no requirement to drill into the Renault Kangoo’s structure, which works to prevent corrosion and maintain residual values.
Both Ready4Work racking kits are covered by the four-year/100,000 mile warranty that comes as standard with the Renault Kangoo and the rest of Renault’s LCV range.
