Hey, we’re Dom & Jesso! After 3 YEARS of living the VAN LIFE in Australia, (completing a whole lap of the country) we have decided to do it ALL OVER AGAIN and upgraded to a 2016 Ford Transit High Roof LWB 🚐
We’re currently self-converting our new Van into our dream home on wheels to continue travelling Australia full time!
Follow along as we document our van build journey and travels around Australia!

Van Build - Bulkhead Sliding Door | How to Build a Sliding Pocket Door | Partition Wall
Welcome back to our Ford Transit van build series! (Episode 12) in this episode we show you how we transformed our bulkhead into a BEAUTIFUL sliding pocket door!
After starting the process months ago we put the bulkhead on hold and decided to install our wooden panel ceiling first and then come back to the pocket door transformation.
This part of the van build was quite challenging and took a lot of time going back and forth trying to make our vision come to life and work smoothly.
We're super happy with the results and still have a few finishing touches to add like the finger pull, door latch, cupboard doors and shelf but the majority is completed!
What do you think of our bulkhead sliding door?
We appreciate all comments, feedback and constructive criticism along the way!
Next Episode: Building our Van Kitchen, Garage & Bed

Once our van build is complete, we are going to continue travelling Australia full-time with our dog Choppy (like we have done in our previous van for the past 3 years!) we cannot wait to get back on the road 🙌🏼

Great job

Thank you so much!!! ❤
Jeez just what we need another fucking hipster van Life channel...
The door looks beautiful love it 😍
wonderful!! 😍😍
thanks so much!!!
Epic idea!
Thank you so much!! 🫶🏼✨ I love it x
❤
Google translator left the chat
can u even get through there 😭
@@ashdahsdwadsjd yes of course 🤣
SLAYY
@@dainteej THANKS!!!
Super cute and quaint. It is small, but I think a big entryway would be a little annoying in a vehicle. Lol
Thank you! Yeah we only needed a little door to get in and out of the front cab when necessary 🙌🏽☺️
That's one small door
I guess it has to be in a van… 🚐 lucky we’re only small people x
Looks awesome ! Well done guys
Thank you so much! Appreciate the comment ☺️
❤❤❤
Door looks great ❤
thanks so much! we love it, such a feature in the van now !!
great video! Nice to know these are the 30 x 700 as I am in the market for some windows at the moment and want to know what size I need. Do you know if the bigger ones will need a curve in them or do you think 45's will fit snug?
Came out great, nice work. New sub
Thanks for the sub! ❤
Very cool! I’m gonna copy this and use a full height mirror instead. Where do you source your ply in Aus? Is it lightweight or just regular? Cheers guys 🤙
Thanks Jordan! that's a good idea, we almost did that too haha, we source our ply from bunnings or our local building supplies shop :)
@ so good! Cheers 🍻
Stumbled across your channel today and I'm loving your videos! That wrap does look delicious to be fair haha.
@@JosephGreenan thank you Joseph! The wraps are awesome 🤩 🤤
That looks really bloody good guys! Top work!
Thank you so much!!!! Appreciate it 🤩✨
What does the bit by the sliding door look like now it's finished? just painted?
the bit inside the sliding pocket door is painted (white on the side closest to the inside wall & black on the cab side) and the bit by the actual sliding door is just painted for now but I’m going to be designing that area! (I’ll include it in another video) 👌🏼
We're building our campervans at the same time! you're a few steps ahead so its fun to see what you guys are doing!
Hello maam, I saw your videos. I like your videos very well. But your videos don't get many views because you don't have proper SEO for your videos You need SEO for your videos If you do SEO for your videos your videos will rank organically and your channel will gain subscribers
Awesome progress guys! Pop quiz - whats the link to the replacement head unit? Am in the market for one and love that design.
Thanks David! we bought our JVC head unit from SuperCheap Auto (JVC 6.8in Touchscreen Head Unit with Bluetooth/USB - KW-M180BT) and the plastic fascia kit was from Ali Express (Double Din Car Fascia Radio Panel for FORD Transit 2014+ Audio Frame Dash Fitting Kit Install Mount Facia Plate Cover Console)
Ooh love the colour of the panels
it's so nice isn't it!!
can’t wait to see more videos😆
thank you!!
What is the purpose of a inverter if you are not connecting to 240v?
the inverter converts our 12v into 240v - e.g to charge our laptops. (an AC charger is needed to connect to 240v source)
Looks awesome ! Well done you two
@@WIKDstixofcheese thank you sooo much!!! we love it x
Congratulations, it's beautiful. It's a lot of work, but the end result is worth it.
Thank you Marcus! Yes that’s right, we’re soooo happy with it 😍
❤
Your explanations are horrible
Hahaha thanks 😝
beautiful, but SO HEAVY. let me guess, you're gonna put in a ceramic kitchen sink too
wrong

Where you get your gas box
Where did you get the gas box from
caravanrv solutions in queensland, australia :)
Nice neat solar setup. Greetings from Jamaica.
Thank you!
Send me 5K worth of setup as well,thank you!
Loving your videos!!! Super helpful for my own can build! I just wanted to ask, did you guys glue down your hybrid flooring or is that no necessary?
Haha just a big commercial, 😂 for an offer priced setup.
$5K for that all that gear is actually pretty decent. You will always pay for quality.
Congratulations on a fantastic DIY installation guys. Happy adventuring!
Thank you so much!!! We appreciate the support 🤩✨🚐
Such a great installation, the system looks epic. Thanks guys!
Thank you so much guys! We’re so happy with it 🤩🫶🏼
I love your videos so much omg 😱😱😱😱
Find an original story to tell. Cheers
Roger that bellend
Thanks Harry! Appreciate the support, we will do 🎉
Wow great video guys, keep up the great work!
Good progress. Nice to see pop rivets instead of aluminium welding. A bit easier. Make sure you treat that rust at 09:21!
Good spot!! Yes we will be doing that 🙌🏽
"Local" being 3 hours 30 minutes from Tamworth! xD Insane
we’re based out in Tamworth & Port Mac if that makes sense 😂 we’re doing the build at 2 addresses haha, sorry for the confusion!
