Quality

Well built, well finished, sturdy. Very nice!

Great storage box

Very sturdy, easy to install.

So Stoked

Once again, FVC has made my ProMaster even better. We just added the rear passenger door platform, rear storage box and the mounting post for the 1UP bike racks. Like all of the other FVC product I was able to install by myself (My GF offered extra hands on occasion). Like the other products I've purchased and installed from FVC, their instructions where spot on. You can tell the product is well thought through and precise. Being a ProMaster owner, it's not easy finding all the cool stuff you can find for Sprinters and the Ford, but FVC is leading the way in my opinion and I would recommend them hands down. Customer service is old school and the best. Thank you Flatline Van Co. Can't wait to see what you come up with for the PM next. Front bumper...hint hint!!!

Great product

Great Rear Door Platform - easy to install!

The Sprinter Van Rear Door Platform from Flatline Van Co was easy to install and took about two hours. The quality is solid and it’s a really useful upgrade for extra functionality. Great product and highly recommended!

Easy to install

As ordered

Love it

I love it! Installed pretty straight forward. Had some customized things with the floor being thicker because of insulation in floor. But it accommodated that nicely.

Rock solid packaging!

Absolutely rock solid packaging, no dent, perfect state, excellent quality. I wish the template could be 3D printed ABS, so it's easier to align and drill the hole.

Excellent product

2026 Thor Gemini MT on Ford 350 chassis
Very good quality and fit of all parts. Plan for more like 8 hours to do it correctly. Did not ran into any issues. I wish there was an engine oil drain hole cut in the splash guard, because oil drain plug will no longer be accessible, but I plan to cut hole and install Fumoto valve, easy solution. Its been a pleasure to install it and see it all work, thank you FVC!

Best System in the Market

High-quality material and design. After researching for months with all the different manufacturers, I decided with this product. After install, I was very pleased with my decision and decided to outfit my van entirely with Flatline rather than Owl because of the exceptional quality.

Perfect fit for HR EXT Transit Trail

Due to the OEM running boards on the Transit Trail we were having difficulty finding a ladder. Initially we were trying to avoid a ladder. But the cheap telescoping ladder was too unstable on uneven surfaces and snowy parking lots. And it takes up a lot of interior space. Although expensive, we are super impressed with the design and finish of the FVCo ladder. High quality and perfect fit. Since we didn't have a FVCo roof rack I had to drill two small 3/8" holes in the our roof rack side rails. The result is a super solid ladder. Highly recommended.

Luxury Product! Straight Forward One-Man Install

I recently installed the Sprinter Van Standard Roof Rack (144” High Roof) and Side Ladder from Flatline Van Co, and I couldn’t be happier with the quality and overall experience. The install was time-consuming but very straightforward—having a second set of hands would’ve sped things up, but even solo, the clear instructions made the process smooth.
The craftsmanship is outstanding, and the finished look instantly elevated my van’s aesthetic. As a photographer, having reliable, well-designed gear is essential, and this setup adds a luxury feel that aligns perfectly with my brand. Rob Faber Photography, based in Northern Connecticut, just received a major upgrade thanks to Flatline Van Co.
Highly recommend their products for anyone looking to enhance both function and style.

bed install

I just installed this in my promaster with the promaster supports. Everything worked well and was very easy and fairly quick to install. Good support from FVCO. They answered all my question. Nice finish. quality product. I am very satisfied. Thanks.

Rock solid

I have the 3 panel bed in a '24 144" Sprinter. I'm using it with an Adventure Wagon interior.

This bed is super bomber. I don't notice any flex or movement and it doesn't rattle or make noise at all. All of the L-Track shaped holes allow you to be able to strap gear below the bed kind of like a reverse roof rack. The velcro straps on the bottom of the mattress are a great design detail that keeps the mattress in place.

I have the tri-fold medium firm mattress and it's nice but I would be interested in a slightly thicker option or additional topper if that were available.

For installing the brackets with an Adventure wagon interior, I cut down the rear part of the bracket to eliminate the mounts that I didn't need and to provide a little bit more clearance with the rear vertical AdWagon panels. Super easy mod with a cutoff wheel and a little bit of spray enamel and you would never know by looking at it.

I like the 3-panel length-wise sleeping arrangement because it saves money on having to add flairs (probably better MPG too) and then no one needs to climb over anyone else when getting in and out of bed. When you want to get the bed out of the way, you can stack the three panels either to the rear or the front and then secure them all to each other or to a floor with L-Track by using some FVC straps.

The best rack!

This rack has been awesome! Super bomber, no noise, very versatile.

One of my goals with my van build has been to keep the MPG as high as possible. I initially was leaning toward the standard rack because I thought it might be better due to being lower profile. Talking to some folks, it sounded like they may have actually been seeing less of a hit to MPG with the Safari rack (perhaps due to how smooth and uniform it is) so I went for the increased functionality of this rack.

I have a '24 AWD Sprinter 144 with the Safari Rack without the drop down front, and my best guess is that the Safari Rack probably cost me about 1.5 MPG. The functionality is worth it. There's a lot of storage space and mounting options, a great mounting option for an awning, and it holds it all well while also giving you a deck to walk around on and cable routing to keep it all looking professional.

Before mounting all of my accessories (solar, maxtrax, starlink etc.) I thought that the rack could have been slightly lower profile and mounted closer to the van roof, but after doing the install, I think FVC struck the perfect balance between being low profile and giving you enough space to work and access mounts from below.

Overall, I'm glad I got this rack and I would buy it again. l'll add pictures sometime soon.

Awesome first upgrade!

This shelf opens up so much storage space and is a really easy install. This was my first interior accessory and it was a great choice. I paired this with the Wanderful headliner cover and it's a great setup. It opens up so much space that would otherwise be unused and the headliner cover keeps everything nicely contained and looking pro.

I did later have to remove and then reinstall this shelf when I did hushmat and insulation on the front of the van, so potentially consider doing that first if it's in your build plans, but also, this is a simple install, so it's not a big deal to do it twice.

Do this first!

These are great and pretty easy to install. When doing almost anything on the van, I'm frequently opening up the hood. These make that so much easier compared to using the factory hood support. Save yourself a lot of hassle and get these done as soon as you get your van.

Must Have!

These are very well built and add a lot of functionality to my 2024 AWD sprinter.

The tread is great, the design is well thought out and I wouldn't want a van without these steps.

Installing the forward supports on the passenger side, there was some competition for one of the mounting holes with the way I initially routed my diesel heater fuel line and then also my DPF skid plate / anti-theft. So if I had to do it over again, I would just make sure that I had a complete install plan for all of my components below the van so that I could prioritize the order that I installed these things. Even if you have to skip one of the supports the steps are quite solid without.

My favorite ladder

This thing is great! Gets the spare up and accessible, gives you roof access without affecting van width clearance or fuel economy, and it's easy to install.

I've been trying to keep my MPG up as much as possible and this ladder does just that. Super clean look and an easy install.

I'm in my late 30s and fairly athletic. If my dad was buying a ladder, I may steer him towards the side ladder to make climbing as easy as possible. There's a little bit of a sequence to figure out with your feet to best climb around the tire, but it's not a big deal.

I'm very happy I went this route while keeping the sides of the van clean.

Tool shed for the van

This rear box was an awesome upgrade. It can fit so much stuff! I have a full 30M recovery rope and kit, tool roll, air compressor, road safety gear, occasionally trash bags and wet wetsuits and much more. It holds it all well and keeps it dry and protected from the elements.

A lot of the stuff that I have in there gets dirty and is heavy, and it's nice to keep the inside of the van clean and safe from that heavy gear potentially flying around. It also seems like it can function as a bear box when camping in bear country.

Installation was super simple. It's rock solid when paired with the FVC rear door platform. It doesn't affect the backup sensors or camera.

When loaded, the rear door is quite heavy, so I would recommend thinking about some sort of support to control that weight when you have the doors open. I got the CAV rear door stop-stay, and that's been the best option I've found after returning another competing product.

Useful everywhere!

I have L-track all over my interior and floor and I use these everywhere. You can never have too many and the L-Track anchoring ends make the straps 2x as efficient when compared to using separate anchors and having to double back.

These hold up my hanging beg, secure tons of gear to my smart floor, get used as impromptu clothes lines off of the ceiling for drying gear, secure surfboards directly to my FVC Safari Rack...the uses are endless. Stock up!

Bomber build and super efficient!

This thing is solid, comfortable, and makes for a very flexible layout in the back of the van.

When it's just me and a bunch of gear, the solo bed is a fantastic option to maximize space and versatility. I secure it to the ceiling of my Adventure Wagon interior, or to the cutouts in my FVC bed when used below, with FVC cam straps with L-Track anchors and it works great.

I have a cam strap at the top and bottom set to the perfect length to keep the bed level, and then a third strap in the middle that I can quickly tighten to fold the bed up out of the way and then loosen to drop it back down.

This is a great product for a minimalist sleeping setup or to add bunks for kids above or below a full sized bed. I also have been exploring using it without the mattress for storage and just strapping pelican cases directly to it using the L-Track cutouts with FVC cam straps.

Overall: a super versatile product that I continue to find more uses for. I'd recommend having one in your quiver.

Super comfortable and very well built

I have the medium firm mattress. Everything is very well thought out with this thing. The materials are great and make cleaning and maintenance easy. The velcro that secures this to the bed is a really nice touch. I have the full FVC bed as well and this mattress is actually a little thicker and more cushioned than that—I slightly prefer it.

Mini Library

I love the open shelf. It holds enough books for the whole family to stay entertained on a long road trip. The opening is big enough for easy access, but keeps books locked in when offloading. This is one of my favorite little additions to my van interior. I would highly recommend adding one to yours.

On the driver's side from front to back, I have: the 6" open shelf, 48" standard depth cabinets, then 40" shallow cabinets over the bed.

Rock Solid

These cabinets are awesome! Super solid, no squeaks, hold my gear securely. On the driver's side from front to back, I have: the 6" open shelf, 48" standard depth cabinets, then 40" shallow cabinets over the bed. This has been a great combo. I installed them using the Adventure Wagon brackets from FVC onto an Adventure Wagon interior. Once the cabinets were installed using the brackets, I drilled a hole in the lower corner of the sides where the cabinets sit next to each other and bolted them together to add even more rigidity and make sure the seam always lined up perfectly. The latches seem strong and give me a lot of confidence once properly adjusted.

I had borrowed a van previously that had soft storage bags and I found it annoying because everything slammed around when off-roading. These are much nicer. The only room I see for any improvement with these would be somehow reducing the clearance needed on the inside of the latches for them to properly close. 10/10 would recommend.
