FAQs

How much will it cost to convert my van?

This is probably our most frequently asked question and the one which is most difficult to answer. Firstly it depends on the van, then it depends what you want in it. And the price can vary massively, for example, one person may chose to have two fixed bonded glass windows in their van, someone else may choose to have five or six seitz windows fitted, the price difference here on windows alone would be over £1000. The best way to get a guide to price is to look at our layout guide and prices page, this way you can get an idea of cost for the furniture/cushions, then add on all the other bits you may want such as windows, roof vents, carpeting, insulation, appliances, etc.

How long does a conversion take?

This obviously depends on the size/type of van and the amount of work being done, but here is a rough guide to how long your conversion will take. Bongo and T4/T5 furniture kits can sometimes be fitted in a day. Small van furniture only fitting normally takes 2-4 days, if we are carpeting, insulating and fitting windows as well then we usually require your van for 2 weeks. Larger van furniture kits normally take  up to 2 weeks to build/fit, if we are doing other work such as fitting windows, roof vents, insulatiing, carpeting etc, then we normally have large vans for upto 6 weeks.

Do you do conversions for transit vans?

Yes, we can convert just about any van. We can also make furniture to your own design.

Can I supply my own appliances?

Yes that’s no problem, for example, if you give us your fridge measurements we can leave the required gap. You will need to ensure the appliances are in good working order and fit for the task 

Do you offer a ply-lining and carpeting service?

Yes we can ply-line and carpet your van, we can also insulate it if required. Please see the prices page for further details.

Do your beds come with seatbelts?

No, our rock and roll beds, although metal framed, do not come with seat belts fitted. However, there is a company next door to us which supplies rock and roll beds fitted with 3-point seatbelts (not crash tested), they are of the same dimensions as our rock and roll bed so fit with our furniture kits.  For more details see www.jdsmetaltech.co.uk

Do you offer a full width Rock and Roll bed?

Yes, we can have our beds made to any width.

Do you convert race vans?

Yes, we can convert LWB Sprinters, Iveco Daily's etc into race vans. We have a number of layout designs which you can opt for. You can either build the garage section yourself or we can build it for you, designs will allow space for go-karts, motocross/enduro bikes, race/track bikes, etc

Do you connect the gas/electric?

No, we are not insured to fit/connect appliances, although we can supply them.
