TopSystem Set ProSafe Nissan NV 200 2 cross members

The Nissan NV 200 is a van frequently used in commercial applications for transporting tools, equipment, and building materials. For craftsmen and tradespeople, it is crucial to make optimal use of the available storage space without endangering road safety. This is where the van racking from Sortimo comes into play, offering a robust and flexible solution with the TopSystem. The TopSystem cross member Nissan NV200 in the ProSafe variant expands the van with a secure roof surface on which bulky goods can be transported, while the interior of the vehicle remains free for tool storage. This approach enables long or large items such as gutters, pipes, or boards to be transported safely without obstructing the interior of the vehicle or impairing visibility. The integration of a continuous load securing system makes this system particularly attractive for users who value efficiency and occupational safety.

The construction of the TopSystem is based on a high-quality combination of various materials that ensure longevity and stability. The cross members consist primarily of aluminium, which ensures a low weight and thus does not unnecessarily burden the payload of the vehicle. The material is corrosion-resistant and withstands daily stresses on the construction site as well as weather influences. Elements made of galvanised steel and stainless steel are used for secure attachment and protection of the vehicle body. These metals ensure high strength at the critical connection points. Additionally, seals made of EPDM rubber are installed, which help dampen vibrations during installation and protect the vehicle roof from scratches or damage. Other components, such as certain brackets or adjustment parts, are made of PA6, a technical plastic characterised by its toughness and abrasion resistance. This mixture of materials is the foundation for the durability of the entire system.

Before the system is installed, the exact fit to the vehicle must be checked. The TopSystem Set ProSafe Nissan NV 200 is designed for a specific selection of models. It fits vehicles from Nissan and Chevrolet, including the Nissan NV 200 from model year 2010, the Nissan City Express from 2010 to 2016, the Chevrolet City Express, and the Nissan e-NV200 from 2018 onwards. The newer Nissan NV250 from 2019 is also supported. It is important to distinguish the wheelbase here. The set is designed for vehicles with a wheelbase of 2725 mm and 3081 mm. The roof shape must be classified as a standard roof with the manufacturer designation H1. The vehicle must also have front-wheel drive and be equipped with a tailgate at the rear. The cross members themselves have a length of 1250 mm. This length was chosen to optimally utilise the roof surface of the NV 200 without negatively affecting the aerodynamic properties or roadworthiness of the vehicle. The entire set weighs 5.03 kg, which is considered very light compared to other solutions on the market.

A central feature of this set is the integration of the ProSafe system. ProSafe is Sortimo's professional load securing system, which is not just an add-on but an integral part of the van racking. ProSafe is incorporated into the roof rack along the entire length of the cross profile. This means that no separate lashing points or subsequent attachments are necessary to attach the lashing straps. The lashing eyes are seamlessly integrated into the aluminium profile. This makes it possible to hook the lashing straps easily, quickly, and without further accessories at any point along the length of the cross members. This continuous usability of the roof surface is a significant advantage over conventional systems, where the lashing points are often arranged at fixed, limited intervals. This creates a holistic load securing system for the entire vehicle. ProSafe can be used not only on the roof but also at the original lashing points of the vehicle manufacturers as well as at integrated lashing points in the vehicle floor. This creates uniform handling and safety throughout the van.

In addition to the lashing system, the cross members offer further protection for the load. Rubber inserts are attached to the cross members. These serve a double purpose. On the one hand, they prevent the transported goods from slipping during the journey by increasing the frictional resistance. On the other hand, they protect the surface of the transported goods from damage caused by the hard edges of the metal cross members. This is particularly important for painted parts, sensitive equipment, or smooth materials. The combination of secure attachment via ProSafe and the non-slip, protective support on the cross members ensures a high level of safety for every transport.

The set includes, in addition to the two cross members, the necessary installation material, including the support feet. Installation is usually carried out at the predetermined points on the vehicle roof. The support feet are positioned so that they distribute the load evenly across the roof and do not damage the vehicle roof. The use of corrosion-resistant screw connections and seals ensures that the installation is permanent and secure. However, it is always important to observe the maximum roof load of the respective vehicle manufacturer. The TopSystem itself carries up to 50 kg per cross member. This is an important legal and safety limit that can be found in the vehicle registration document or the manual.

The use of the roof rack opens up new possibilities for tool storage in the van. By relocating bulky items to the roof, the interior of the Nissan NV 200 remains free. This benefits the van racking, as drawers, shelves, and case systems from the Sortimo TopSystem can now be used more effectively in the interior. Craftsmen can thus store their tools clearly and within easy reach in the vehicle floor or on the side walls, while long materials are transported safely on the roof. This separation of heavy, bulky transport goods and fine tools increases efficiency at work, as there is no need to constantly rearrange and the risk of damage in the interior is minimised.

For the expansion and optimisation of the system, Sortimo offers a wide range of accessories. The TopSystem accessories Nissan NV include various brackets, clamps, and special solutions that make transport even safer and more comfortable. For example, brackets for ladders, pipes, or profiles can be mounted, which facilitate the transport of specific goods. The load stop, available as Art.-Nr. 6000015343, can also serve as a practical helper to further secure the load on the roof and prevent it from shifting. The combination of the basic set and matching accessories makes it possible to adapt the system individually to the needs of the respective trade.

The advantages of this system can be summarised in several points.

The classification within the Sortimo system shows the strength of the modularly constructed van racking. The TopSystem is not to be viewed in isolation, but is part of a larger whole. The ProSafe roof rack set for tailgate Nissan can be seamlessly connected to the interior equipment. This means that the load securing is consistent from the roof surface to the vehicle floor. Users can rely on a uniform system, where the operation of the lashing straps and fastening elements is the same everywhere. This reduces the induction time for new employees and minimises the risk of errors in load securing. The compatibility with other Sortimo products, such as the drawer systems or wall shelves, creates a consistent logic in the organisation of the van.

To clarify common questions about compatibility and installation, it is helpful to look at the technical details. Many craftsmen wonder which cross members fit in the Nissan NV200. The answer is that the TopSystem cross member Nissan NV200 is specifically designed for the mentioned model years and wheelbases. It is important to check the wheelbase exactly, as there are differences between 2725 mm and 3081 mm. The question of whether the TopSystem set is compatible with the e-NV200 can also be answered unequivocally with yes, provided it is the model from 2018 onwards. For the Nissan City Express, there is also a suitable roof rack system that offers the same ProSafe features. The Sortimo roof rack Nissan are designed to use the original attachment points of the vehicle and do not invasively intervene in the body.

Another important point is the availability for different wheelbases. Is there a set for Nissan NV200 with 3081mm wheelbase? Yes, the TopSystem 2 cross members Nissan wheelbase 3081 is a specific variant designed for vehicles with a longer wheelbase. The installation of the cross members is carried out at the corresponding points intended for this wheelbase. The material of the Sortimo ProSafe cross members is, as already mentioned, a mixture of aluminium for the profile and steel and stainless steel elements for the attachment and sealing. This ensures high stability at low weight. For vehicles with a tailgate, the ProSafe roof rack set for tailgate Nissan is particularly relevant, as it takes into account the specific conditions of the rear area.

In summary, the TopSystem Set ProSafe Nissan NV 200 offers a professional solution for commercial transport. It combines the need to transport bulky goods safely with the desire to make optimal use of the interior for tool storage. The integration of ProSafe ensures continuous and simple load securing, while the high-quality materials ensure a long service life. For craftsmen who want to professionally equip their Nissan NV 200, e-NV200 or City Express, this is a sensible investment in safety and efficiency. The possibility of expanding the system with TopSystem accessories Nissan NV makes it a flexible solution that keeps pace with the demands of daily professional life. Anyone who wants to buy a TopSystem ProSafe set for Nissan NV200 receives a system that not only creates space but also increases safety on the road. The clear separation of roof load and interior storage space makes it possible to get to the customer faster, as less time is lost with rearranging.
