TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom H2 2 cross members

The professional outfitting of vans requires thoughtful planning of the load space to ensure both safety and efficiency in everyday professional use. For craftsmen, service technicians, and logistics companies, the optimal use of the vehicle roof is a crucial factor for transporting long items safely and keeping valuable interior storage space free for tool storage in the van. The TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom H2 2 cross members by Sortimo represents a high-quality solution specifically tailored to the conditions of the Ford Transit Custom. This set enables drivers to use the roof of their vehicle not just as a simple storage surface, but to establish it as an integral part of a professional load securing system. The integration of ProSafe technology directly into the cross members ensures that lashing straps can be attached without additional installation effort and without the need for adapters or adhesive techniques. This is a significant advantage for everyone who works daily with bulky goods and must save time and costs in the process.

The construction of the set is based on two robust cross members made of high-quality steel. This material offers an excellent combination of stability and durability, which is essential for frequent use in commercial applications. The length of the individual cross members is 1450 millimeters, thereby optimally utilizing the available roof surface of the Ford Custom H2. This precise dimensioning creates an even bearing surface on which even longer components such as pipes, profiles, or construction panels can be positioned safely. The total weight of the two cross members is only 5.31 kilograms. This low mass is a decisive factor, as it hardly affects the maximum payload of the vehicle. In contrast to heavier alternatives made of inferior materials or thicker profiles, as much load capacity as possible is retained for the actual cargo. The lightweight design of the Sortimo roof system thus contributes directly to economic efficiency, as less fuel is consumed and the vehicle limits can be better utilized.

When considering the technical specifications, compatibility with the specific vehicle model is of central importance. The set is designed for the Ford Transit Custom in the H2 version, which corresponds to the high roof variant. It fits both vehicles with front-wheel drive and those with rear-wheel drive, provided the roof shape and wheelbases match. The two available wheelbases of 2933 millimeters and 3300 millimeters are covered by this set. This is particularly relevant because the Ford Transit Custom is available in various equipment variants, including the crew van. The rear opening variant with wing doors does not exclude installation, as the mounting of the cross members takes place on the roof and does not affect the function of the door opening. The load capacity of each individual cross member is up to 50 kilograms. However, it is always important to note that the total load capacity of the vehicle roof, as specified by the vehicle manufacturer, must not be exceeded. The Sortimo system is designed to respect these limits by enabling even load distribution.

The area of application for this roof system is broad and covers the needs of various professional groups. Craftsmen from carpentry, metalworking, plumbing, or the electrical trade benefit enormously from the ability to transport long workpieces on the roof. This leaves the interior of the van free for tool storage, toolboxes, and personal protective equipment. For fleet management, standardizing on a system like that from Sortimo is advantageous as it ensures uniform processes and safety standards. ProSafe technology plays a special role here. In the roof rack TopSystem, ProSafe is integrated over the entire length of the cross profile. This means that lashing straps can be hooked on simply, quickly, and without further accessories over the entire surface. This eliminates the tedious search for suitable lashing points or the retrofitting of rubber inserts, which although they prevent cargo from slipping and protect it from damage, often only work at fixed points. With ProSafe, the securing option is continuously available.

In addition to the integrated load securing system, the installation of the set is thoughtfully and user-friendly designed. This significantly simplifies the installation process, as no separate parts need to be ordered or found. The attachment is usually done at the original lashing points of the vehicle manufacturer or at pre-installed brackets, making the Ford Transit Custom installation a quick and safe matter. The long service life of the system is supported by the corrosion-resistant material, which retains its function and appearance even under adverse weather conditions. For the transport of particularly long items that extend beyond the vehicle length, Sortimo offers suitable accessories, such as load limiters. These extend the roof rack with practical helpers that make load securing on the roof even easier and thus contribute to the driver being faster on the road and with their customer.

To concretely illustrate the value of the product for the user, the following advantages of installing such a system should be highlighted:

The classification into the Sortimo system shows that the TopSystem Set ProSafe Ford Custom H2 2 cross members should not be viewed as an isolated product, but as part of a holistic concept for van racking. ProSafe can be used consistently at the original lashing points of the vehicle manufacturers as well as at the Sortimo van racking and at integrated lashing points in the vehicle floor. By upgrading the roof rack with ProSafe, you now have a holistic load securing system for your entire vehicle. This means you have a strap system that fits everywhere, whether you are securing tools in the interior or transporting long profiles on the roof. This system compatibility is a decisive feature for fleet management that aims to standardize processes and optimize workflows. The combination of the robust Transit Custom roof system and the flexible ProSafe technology creates an infrastructure that adapts to the requirements of daily use.
