FAQs

Do racking systems affect payload?
Yes, but Vanguard layouts are designed to be payload‑efficient. We’ll advise weights in your quote.

Will a roof rack increase noise or reduce MPG?
A small change is normal. Vanguard aero bars help minimise wind noise and drag.

Can you bolt down a strong box?
Yes — we through‑fix to the floor with internal tie‑downs for maximum strength.

Is drilling required for ladders or racks?
Many kits use existing mounting points. Where drilling is required, we seal and protect fixings for longevity.

What about roof‑load limits and legal overhangs?
We size your system to manufacturer load limits and can advise on safe loading and marking requirements.

Can you fit security locks at the same time?
Absolutely — combine Lock4Vans deadlocks/slamlocks or shielding with your Vanguard appointment.
