Adrian Steel launches new line of Ford Transit products

Words: Todd AdamsAdrian Steel Company, a leading manufacturer of cargo management solutions, announces its new line of products designed specifically the 2015 Ford Transit. With cargo volumes that range from 256 to 550 cubic feet, the versatile Ford Transit offers plenty of cargo space for tools and equipment. Adrian Steel’s high quality upfits and products provide storage solutions to maximize the space in the Transit.

The new line of products features upfit fundamentals such as shelving, partitions, ladder racks, and trade packages to accommodate the low, medium, and high roof models of the Ford Transit.

Shelving

Adrian Steel’s exclusive ADseries shelving units are easily adjustable and have been re-designed for the Ford Transit’s three roof heights. ADseries shelving is easily adjustable by simply unscrewing two bolts with a Phillips screwdriver. It also comes with Plug and Play shelves to allow a high level of customization. Durable welded shelving, which allows for a higher weight capacity, is also available for the Transit.

Partitions

Partitions create a barrier between the cargo area and the cab, increasing passenger safety and reducing noise, among other benefits. Adrian Steel’s partitions are available with solid or perforated panels and accommodates accessories if the owner chooses. Transit partition options include a fixed center panel, a hinged center panel “door”, and a wing kit.

Ladder Racks

Adrian Steel has designed an all-new EZ Load ladder rack for the Transit models. Just like its name implies, the EZ Load is crafted to make it easy to operate, adjust, maintain, and accessorize a ladder. The EZ Load is a lockable, easy to grip ladder rack that is designed with ergonomics in mind. Adrian Steel has also redesigned its popular LOADSRITE drop-down ladder racks. The LOADSRITE features an easy-to-reach handle, a glide-out bed platform, and hydraulic load assist to eliminate physical strain on the user. A basic Aluminum Utility Rack is also available for the Transit Low Roof.
