Title: storing poles in van
Post by: idealrob on January 11, 2012, 08:42:10 pm

Looking for any ideas for storing poles in Doblo Maxi, the van is not long enough straight on, but fit in diagonal, i have seen on here some photos using a gutter bracket, any ideas

I have a doblo cargo, and in the top corners of the bulkhead there are removable trim pieces that let the poles fit in. Just used some pipe lagging to stop scuffing the poles.

Thats a very neat idea :)
Have bought pole rests from reputable companies and they are either way too big and clunky or a bit tinny and frail

Might have to nick this set up though, and always cheaper on a self install too

Cheers

Have the same set up in our vans, but with tubes as opposed to u-sections.

Works really well.

Good idea and great pics , mine is slight variation in that I got some gutter brackets and screwed to side of van then fixed guttering to brackets ,i did start with just brackets but found the my hoses snagged a lot so now just slide em into guttering and lay hose on top ,works fine and ultra cheapo ;D
