At Kinmel Campers, we’re known for transforming vans into practical, stylish, and reliable vehicles for both everyday use and long journeys. Our latest project involved a Vauxhall Movano, where our customer wanted robust and stylish side bars supplied and fitted. These additions not only improve the look of the van but also provide functional benefits, making it easier to step in and out while offering extra protection for the vehicle’s bodywork.
Why Choose Side Bars for a Vauxhall Movano?
Side bars are a popular upgrade for vans like the Vauxhall Movano. They don’t just add to the van’s appearance – they also bring several practical advantages:
- Improved accessibility – making it easier for passengers to get in and out of the vehicle.
- Bodywork protection – side bars reduce the risk of damage from knocks, scrapes, and road debris.
- Stylish finish – giving the van a professional, upgraded look.
- Added durability – stainless steel or powder-coated side bars are built to last in all weather conditions.
By fitting side bars, you’re investing in both function and style, which is exactly what our customer wanted for their Movano.
The Side Bar Installation Process
This Vauxhall Movano side bar fitting began with preparing the van. We safely lifted and secured it to access the underside, ensuring precise placement of the brackets. Our mechanics carefully lined up the mounting points before attaching the side bars to the factory points of the chassis.
The installation involved:
- Bracket fitting – ensuring the bars were level and securely mounted.
- Side bar alignment – adjusting the bars so they sat flush against the van.
- Secure fixing – using heavy-duty bolts and fittings for long-term durability.
- Final inspection – checking stability and finish to guarantee a professional result.
Within just a few hours, the Vauxhall Movano was fitted with sleek, strong side bars that transformed its overall look.
Customer Feedback
The owner was delighted with the final result. They commented on how much sturdier the van felt and appreciated the improved access alongside the upgraded style. It’s always rewarding for us at Kinmel Campers to see happy customers drive away with upgrades that make their van more practical and visually appealing.
Benefits for Campervan Owners
For those using the Vauxhall Movano as a campervan conversion, side bars are especially useful. They:
- Provide a safer step when climbing in with camping gear.
- Add a more rugged, professional look for custom conversions.
- Offer protection during road trips, especially on uneven terrain.
This makes them a popular choice among our campervan conversion customers.
