Jumbo-Unit A 1.5-10-21 1xSBL20

The professional van racking for tradespeople and service providers requires thoughtful organisation to streamline workflows and maximise productivity on the construction site or in the operational area. A central component of this organisation is the secure and space-saving storage of tools, materials, and equipment. In this context, the large-volume drawer plays a crucial role, as it not only provides storage space but also significantly facilitates the handling of heavy and bulky items. The Sortimo Jumbo Unit represents a robust solution here, specifically designed for demanding use in commercial vehicles. It combines high load-bearing capacity with a lightweight design, making it an ideal choice for companies that value maximum payload and optimal use of space. Integrating such systems into daily vehicle operations not only reduces search times for tools but also contributes to road safety, as loose parts can no longer roll around the vehicle.

The construction of the unit is based on a stable aluminium housing, known for its corrosion resistance and high strength at low self-weight. This material is crucial for the longevity of the van racking, as it withstands weather influences and mechanical stress. The external dimensions are 1,046 millimetres in length, 356.1 millimetres in width, and 357 millimetres in height. These dimensions allow for precise fitting into the available grid dimensions of vehicles. The internal volume is dimensioned at 970 millimetres in length, 264.8 millimetres in width, and 311.6 millimetres in height, offering an effective load space of 0.257 square metres. The use of aluminium as the main material ensures that the module itself is relatively light, which positively influences the overall vehicle weight and thus fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions. At the same time, the material thickness ensures high stability, which is necessary to safely absorb and transport heavy loads.

To contextualise the technical specifications, the grid dimension is of great importance. The unit is designed with a width grid of 1.5, depth grid of 10, and height grid of 21. This standardised system enables various modules to be seamlessly integrated and adapted to the individual conditions of the vehicle interior. The weight of the empty unit is 13.52 kilograms, representing a good balance between stability and handling. The maximum payload is specified at 100 kilograms, underscoring its suitability for heavy equipment, tool cases, machine components, or large quantities of building materials. This load capacity is ensured by the reinforced construction and secure attachment to the vehicle floor. The variant with a single drawer offers a large, continuous storage space, which is better suited for unwieldy or long items than many small compartments.

In terms of application, the large-volume drawer covers a wide range of requirements. It is particularly suitable for tradespeople such as electricians, plumbers and heating installers, locksmiths, or carpenters who frequently need to carry heavy equipment such as rotary hammers, welding machines, toolboxes, or large rolls on board. It is also used in the field of vehicle technology or logistics, where the transport of spare parts and special tools is necessary. The drawer can be integrated as an underfloor solution to utilise the vehicle floor flatly, or used in stand-alone variants when other modules are to be mounted above it. This makes it an extremely flexible component in the entire van racking. Through full integration into the Sortimo SR5 shelf system, the unit can be optimally integrated into existing installations and offers seamless organisation of the interior.

A key advantage of working with this unit lies in the combination of safety and efficiency. The ProSafe lashing points enable secure load securing of the items contained. This is important not only for traffic safety but also protects the tools themselves from damage caused by vibrations and braking manoeuvres. The option to cover the drawer with a lid insert or a tray significantly expands the possibilities for use. Thus, the surface of the unit can be used as an additional work area or storage surface, while the storage space underneath remains available. This maximises the use of available space in the vehicle, which is a decisive factor especially in smaller panel vans. The easy operation of the drawer, which can be pulled out and swung back in with ease, saves time during every deployment and reduces the physical strain on the tradesperson when lifting and carrying heavy loads.

The classification into the Sortimo system shows the strength of the modular design. Since the large-volume drawer is constructed according to the same principles as the other elements of the Sortimo Sortimo shelf system, it can be combined with other modules as desired. This ranges from small compartment drawers for small parts to shelves for roll material to holders for long tools. The unit is therefore not an isolated product, but part of a holistic concept for vehicle organisation. Through compatibility with various height and depth grids, the tradesperson can adapt the installation exactly to the internal dimensions of their van. This prevents empty spaces and utilises every available cubic centimetre. The possibility of installing the drawer below other modules makes it an ideal base for the lower level of the van racking. This keeps the upper area accessible for frequently needed, lighter items, while heavy loads are stored safely and low.

To clearly answer common questions regarding application and technical data, it is helpful to examine the specific properties of the Sortimo Jumbo Unit A 1.5-10-21 in detail. Many tradespeople initially ask how much the unit weighs, as the total weight of the vehicle plays a role. The empty weight of the Sortimo Jumbo Unit A 1.5-10-21 is 13.52 kilograms. This weight is very low compared to the high load capacity of 100 kilograms, which underscores the efficiency of the lightweight construction. Another common question is whether the large-volume drawer is suitable for 100 kg payload. The answer is clearly yes; the construction is explicitly designed for a maximum load of 100 kilograms and thus offers sufficient safety for heavy machines and tool cases. Regarding dimensions, the question about the internal dimensions of the aluminium drawer is often of interest. These are 970 millimetres in length, 264.8 millimetres in width, and 311.6 millimetres in height, providing plenty of space for large items.

An important aspect in planning the van racking is the question of whether Sortimo drawers fit into every van. Generally, the modules are based on a standardised grid that is applied in most modern commercial vehicles. However, the unit with grid dimensions 1.5x10x21 is a specific module that fits into a corresponding substructure. It is advisable to check the available dimensions in the vehicle before installation to ensure that the installation length and width as well as the height of the loading edge are taken into account. The unit does not necessarily fit into every vehicle without adapting the brackets or choosing other modules, but the modular system from Sortimo offers suitable solutions for almost every vehicle class. Finally, the question of what the Sortimo large-volume drawer consists of arises. It consists primarily of aluminium, a material known for its combination of lightness and stability, thus meeting the requirements in commercial use perfectly.

In summary, the Sortimo Jumbo Unit A 1.5-10-21 offers a high-quality solution for tool storage in the vehicle. It combines the advantages of a robust aluminium construction with the flexibility of a modular system. For tradespeople who want to optimise their work processes and simultaneously increase safety in the vehicle, this large-volume drawer is a sensible investment. The ability to transport heavy loads safely and organised not only relieves the body of the driver but also increases efficiency at the site of deployment. By clearly structuring the storage space, time is saved that would otherwise be spent searching for tools. Integration into the existing SR5 system from Sortimo ensures that the unit fits seamlessly into the entire van racking and works synergistically with other modules. Anyone looking for a reliable and durable solution for the storage of materials and tools will find a professional tool for daily use in this unit. The technical data, the material, and the load capacity make it a fixed component of a modern and professional van racking.
