I do remember that. The result certainly looks much better than I might have expected.

Thanks PM.
I just used some heavy duty runners I found on ebay. 20-60'' Pair Heavy Duty Drawer Runners Full Extension Ball Bearing Slide w/ Lock | eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325296131510?var=514180280676 , they seem to work ok, but I have a feeling the locking mechanism could prove to be a right pain in the future when it decides to play up and I can't pull the draw out. I do like the fact it locks into place though, so there is no movement when driving. It would be interesting to see some pictures of yours if you fancy popping some on, indeed anyone's van storage solutions, small bits like tube holders or large racking system's. it would all be interesting and useful to see.
I'm determined to make work run as smoothly as possible and a well organised van is probably one of the main priorities.
I built the draw, so I could get the size exactly as I wanted to accommodate 4 of the bins I use. I put the least used items in there, with the very least used at the back. Paying someone to do this may have been a lot quicker, but I don't believe the end result would have been as useful or effective.

Your draw runners look equally as long as mine. Sounded odd saying that! Comparing lengths of men's draw runnersLovely job. I'm impressed how far the drawer runners extend. This is my effort. I built them for my older model berlingo, and moved them over when I got the new one (new to me I mean). Apologies to forum members that are sensitive to clutter.

I used box section steel and skateboard bearings for the drawer runners, which works fairly well (a bit of rubbing on the R/H drawer these days), and can take a lot of weight. The drawers are easily the best thing I did to the van, they free up so much space. The racking could do with rethinking though. I'll get round to it one day!
6ft, but slim. Sounds like a dating site!Nice job, OK where is the trap door.
You must be a diddy man to walk in to that or Alice in wondervan.
I have a fork, be round in a jiffy.I'm cooking dinner, but I want to be in the van.
