Foundation
INFRASTRUCTURE
Our proprietary infrastructure is the base of every van we create. It reinforces all aspects of your van build and the vehicle’s structure. Since our vans are 100% custom vehicles, our infrastructure varies due to the design of your van. We also include sound damping and insulation for a smooth and quiet driving experience as well as temperature regulation. These foundation features lead to a longer-lasting, better-performing vehicle.
Finishing
Every van has full wall paneling, ceiling paneling, and a factory headliner. These panels are finished in closed-cell acoustic foam with a solid and durable interweave fabric of your choice. Material upgrades, like Sileather, are also available. Each type of fabric has numerous color options, and all our materials are tested and proven to last.
Flooring
Each van comes with finished flooring and wheel tub boxes made with ¾” marine grade plywood, wrapped in a flooring material of your choice. Choose from a large variety of durable marine-grade vinyl that can withstand the most rugged adventures. The styles and color options are endless!
Lighting
Light up even the darkest nights with six flush-mount ceiling LED lights. Each van we build comes standard with these dimmable lights, with options to add lighting in the garage area, the galley area, at the slider, and more.

Systems
Power
Our experienced team will work to create the most efficient power system package for your needs. This option is necessary if you plan on traveling off-grid and using items like a refrigerator, induction cooktop stove, aftermarket A/C, or microwave.
- Available power options:
- Lithium-Ion Batteries
- Magnum Inverter
- Secondary High-Amp Alternator
- Rooftop Solar Panels
- Outlets: 110v, USB-C, 12V
Water
Our water system package provides on-demand fresh water anywhere you travel. This includes a freshwater tank that can hold anywhere from 15 to 30 gallons in various shapes that fit the van’s layout. The electric pump pulls minimal power from the battery to circulate water, and the carbon water filter provides peace of mind. To fill up your tank, we install an external water fill allowing for easy fill-ups with a hose while on the road. A grey water tank can also be added as an option.
HEATING
Adventuring in your van shouldn’t be limited to warm months. Our heating systems are built to perform in the coldest conditions, so you’re not left frozen during an overnight winter camping trip or when you return to your van after a day on the slopes.
We install many different diesel heater options with thousands of BTU of power pumping heat into the cabin. They run on auxiliary power and pull minimal fuel from the van’s tank. Every system includes a control panel to control the heat settings easily.
