Really good set up, you probably get more work than you realise from people looking at how organised you are. The only thing I could possible add would be a Nobo style white board so you write down what stock you take out each day so you know what to buy. That way you never run out of the common items.
Know exactly what you mean mate, there are a few sparks near where I live that always get a lot of work but there vans are a rusty piece of shit and they are scruffy bastards. There is no way I’d have someone working in my house that didn’t give a shit about how his van, company and appearances looked, because you can tell his work is going to be the same standard.
The back of your van looks more like a stores it's that well laid out and organised. What's even better Nick is your a decent human being that will go out his way to help people and save them money if you can. Your apprentice is lucky to have a boss like you. I only wish I'd of had that opportunity when I was younger!!!
Nick put the uni lights to the underside of the ikea shelf with a thin metal sheet screwed to it, as the magnets will attract small metal flakes/swarf onto the top of your van and they will rust and eat into the paint, same as magnetic signs. See it happen far too many times. Love your new custom and keep up the great content.
I like the way you have fitted out your van, especially the matching colour scheme, black is my colour too. I think raising the floor with the large storage drawers is practical and a good use of space. Cheers Nick and keep up the great videos.
Superb job Nick...looks amazing, always look at vans and general appearance of anybody who does work for me - image massively important.......by the way for anybody wanting to sort out their van.... Toolstation have your fave waterproof Stanley stackers at £30 for a twin pack.
Proper nice job. I would insulate the back of the van to stop condensation forming and ending up rusting everything. My van had been sound deadened, insulated, and plyboarded with acoustic cloth. No moisture, and the van is super quiet with a quality feel. If you get a quiet spell i would highly recommend those mods.
hello, a greeting from an Italian colleague. Congratulations on the excellent organization of the equipment. You can see that you do this job with enormous enthusiasm and passion!
SelectaDNA to mark your power tools and van helps as well Nick - Warning stickers on the van vaults and the tool themselves. Love the van load out, outstanding!
So far i’ve bought a cordless heat gun, ferrule crimping set, van vault, only use storm glands & need a new van now! Spot on though Nick fair play, job in the town!
I have van envy😂. Had a Custom for a couple of years and did something similar, not quite so impressive but it was cursed had 3 x visits to the body shop. Totally agree if customers wanting an estimate see a nice clean van on their drive you are more likely to get the job. Keep up the good work👍
Pimp my ride......you deserve all the best keep giving back I can’t wait to see your new apprentice when Adam flies on his own. You know the problem you are gonna have now keep it looking that neat😱 look into how you can remove the high moisture levels independent of what the temperature is outside - all those tools are vulnerable. It’s something manufacturers of vans should have addressed long ago. Installation of a fan and insulation will help talk to Ford.
Raised floor is a must, I'm trying to get around to do it in mine, here's a , even though it's a new van, when a exhaust issue arises it'll blacked them up and you'll be binning them, happened to me twice.
Apparently there's a van tour competition going on? I think you've already won. In fact I can hear the other guys crying as they watch this! Very tidy and accessible mate 👌.
Nice van. I'm labouring for my plumber mate at the minute, his van is a mess. I'm start L2 electrics next year and this van is just what I'd have for organisation. I keep telling my mate, buy a few things you know you always need and save us 2 hours a day of shopping & driving. Great video. I need to find myself an electrician to labour for with a van like this.
You speak sense lad. Different trade (plumbing and gas) but i have almost the same set up but went for the full Bott Smartvan with 2 sliders the same. Customers are taken back when they see the organisation. Your van is your office eigh mate. Make the effort ;)
Have you ever made any inserts with your 3D printer for the Stanley fat max Organiser to change them from one small tub into like a 4 or a 6 partition tub for crimps or numbers ect.
Just come from the revenue video, when you talked about buying a box of ten sockets every now and again I prefer the phrase “better to be looking at it than for it” 😉. Big fan of Snickers work gear, wish I had the knee pads back in the day when I started out crawling through lofts!
That is a really nice and clean layout! Only one thing missing in my opinion, a first aid kit. Its something people dont think about untill you really wish you had one :)
@@entergenericedgynamehere8751 Well, Norwegian sparks do carry that aswell, but i would still recommend to have at least a small first aid kit somewhere in the van.
Wow!! Love what youve done Nick, looks amazing. Used all the space really well.. i love a clean tidy van shows massively on how ur work inside properties r.. proper Pro 👌🏾👍🏽
Nice van speaking from experience been in the trade 45 yrs contractor for the last 25 organization is a struggle not only you but you’re apprentice also what I do as far as stock when I run low I make note on my phone immediately then pick It up and replace it good luck
Not showing your alarm... I can only assume it's bespoke and give electric shocks of around 10kv, and you're not sure where you legally stand with it😎 Also, exploding paint🤗
I know it doesn't look at clean, but the driver sliding door means getting to a common part of the shelving much easier. Would you believe in Australia we actually like glazed rear doors (can order with a tailgate to keep the sun and rain off) and side door and litle window in the bulkhead. Makes driving a shit load safer.
Love the van nick and the layout and you are right what you say tidy organised van means tidy and attention to detail tradesman... Again great video keep them coming👌
Happy New year buddy. Loving the set up the only thing I will say is keep well on top of your security mate. That's your bread and butter. All the best buddy 👍
Love how you have done the van really smart and definitely will be more efficient brother for the uni lights put a clear film on the roof of the van so the magnets don't scratch the lovely paint.wish you more success thank you for sharing your ideas big up nick
Could you explain the options of it all. I'm wanting a new transit (got vivaro sportive at mo) but with cost of van, straight away I would need security! And racking out. So would be nice of an idea of costs to get it to how you have it. Cos its a stunning van!
Great video it’s good to see how other sparkys work, I’ve just recently took early retirement from being I the electrical trade for more then 40 odd years 😳, and like you I still like things organised 👍keep up the good work
Sweet stuff, i always imagined myself adding an AC circuit to my van so that when i'm working somewhere and i need to charge up my battery's or smth else i can just plug it a cable from the van to the house instead of having to search the chargers and charge in the house with the risk of forgetting them
The ceiling LED lights, from Fleabay? I have the same ones in my van and they last 2 minutes damn them. 2 flicker, 2 don't work, 1 is dim but cba to replace them 2 yeats in ha
Did you get rid of the stupid lock on the driver door for a flush in plate, looked like a smooth chrome finish - wondering who/where from cause I'd be going down the route of 3rd party central looking and getting it removed too.
@@NBundyElectrical Nice, ever since that video was posted of how to break into one with mole grips most of the Transit customs got done down here. Your tour is just in time, my ECU went on my van at lunch - 3rd computer control gone down, had the breaking control unit go twice (not run when you lose your breaks going down hill fully loaded) - time for a new van I think. Great video as always really helpful for ideas! Keep up the good work!
Nice van...and so tidy 😁😁 I would like to know whats your go to multimeter/voltagetester that you always have with you.... Do you have any video of your meter stuff ?? Hello from Sweden 🙂🙂
Please give my friend Ben’s channel a follow who helped me with this video th-cam.com/channels/hLjTD19zrEDHI4i6uAMQMQ.html
Thanks man. Really enjoyed working on this with you! 👊🏻 It's come out great! 👊🏻
Really good set up, you probably get more work than you realise from people looking at how organised you are.
The only thing I could possible add would be a Nobo style white board so you write down what stock you take out each day so you know what to buy. That way you never run out of the common items.
The most important thing is that it works for you. I would have more confidence in an electrician who took this much care of his tools. You good job!
🙌🙌

This is what I aspire to have in the future.

And you will get it if you believe it
Keep grinding and you’ll get it mate

A man after my own heart. I just love to see things so well organised.
As an Aussie electrician with a Ford transit custom- I love your setup mate! Killer
We desperately need one Van like that! That is AWESOME!
Superb job Nick...looks amazing, always look at vans and general appearance of anybody who does work for me - image massively important.......by the way for anybody wanting to sort out their van.... Toolstation have your fave waterproof Stanley stackers at £30 for a twin pack.
Well, that wasn't depressing at all, fck my van and the organised chaos...
Van looks fab..👌
Who is in charge of your van?
Proper nice job. I would insulate the back of the van to stop condensation forming and ending up rusting everything. My van had been sound deadened, insulated, and plyboarded with acoustic cloth. No moisture, and the van is super quiet with a quality feel. If you get a quiet spell i would highly recommend those mods.
Thank you Nick for doing the Part two of the van Tour Love the Set Up it's Very Nice And Professional
Great video as always! Lovely van nice to see pride in your workplace shows that extra bit of professionalism when on a job.

Already on it dude 👍👍
Absolutely awesome van 👍. Given me plenty of ideas for my van now. Been waiting for this video for a while and didn't disappoint.
So far i’ve bought a cordless heat gun, ferrule crimping set, van vault, only use storm glands & need a new van now! Spot on though Nick fair play, job in the town!
thats mint, didnt even skip anything, good job done there :) gave me some ideas for my own van. nice 1

Amazing video those Top Gear people have obviously got nothing to do with the wiring made this video well done brilliant
Superb Nick, Well in man! 👏
I wish my van looked like this. Van goals for sure.
0:26 the van looks awesome against the lights. Great idea your mate had for the lights 😎
Those Van Vault sliders are legit, they look solid AF. Real nice!

From Hilti and I think also bosch you get a dril with vacuum apliable on the machine all on battery - a blessing
Smashed it Nick. Looks good. Yes you are right the van condition represents your neat quality work.
Looks good nothing better than a tradesmen who keeps there van clean
Absolutely brilliant, well thought out and truly inspiring, well done Nick!

What a mint van Nick! Love the setup in timber also. Huge van envy now!
Hell of a set up mate and all those rcbos👌👌
Thanks Nick for your van tour Love the Van very organised and tidy. Got an idea 👍😀
Damn... I want one of those T Shirts! 🤣🤣
Great job kitting out the van guys ~ enjoy those heated seats.

ngl ive seen a lot of organised vans but yours is just something else
That is a really nice and clean layout! Only one thing missing in my opinion, a first aid kit. Its something people dont think about untill you really wish you had one :)
Us sparks all carry insulation tape, that's our first aid kit!
@@entergenericedgynamehere8751 Well, Norwegian sparks do carry that aswell, but i would still recommend to have at least a small first aid kit somewhere in the van.
Great set up. Lopez King T-shirt - Legend.
Nice van , inside and out 👌🏼.... so clean and tidy . If getting work goes by how tidy your van is then me and Al are screwed !😳🤣👍🏼🧱
😂😂 cheers Steve
What a beauty mate . Awesome setup
Thanks dude
Good man looks good already the first minite
🙌🙌
Superb mate, very practical 👍🏻
Not jealous at all 🤦♂️ Looks top drawer fella 👍
Fantastic idea about the Din rail with the breakers
Very Niiiice. Beautiful van. Really well organised. A credit to your business.
Wow!! Love what youve done Nick, looks amazing. Used all the space really well.. i love a clean tidy van shows massively on how ur work inside properties r.. proper Pro 👌🏾👍🏽
watch out with the magnetic lamps on the roof, they collect steel dust, or grindings on site and then rust mark the paint outside
I love all the tools bud😌I discovered your chanel last night and have already purchased around 5 tools you've showed😄👊👊👊
Nice van speaking from experience been in the trade 45 yrs contractor for the last 25 organization is a struggle not only you but you’re apprentice also what I do as far as stock when I run low I make note on my phone immediately then pick It up and replace it good luck
Fantastic van setup! Nice to see a trade person that has pride and is prepared, well done :) looks mint!
The black makes it easier to see stuff I think, as supposed to smashed up dirty ply.
And 100% customer sees that and knows you care!
I really need to sort my van out after watching this 😂😂
😂😂
@@NBundyElectrical I have the bot smart racking but it’s a bit shit to be honest like you said you can’t really modify it.
Looks awesome dude. Very well organised. Good choice on building your own racking though, one day I will do the same. Maybe.....
Not showing your alarm... I can only assume it's bespoke and give electric shocks of around 10kv, and you're not sure where you legally stand with it😎

The van is unreal mate well done 👍🏻
My bad. Thought you said gran tour. Expected to see family members. Awesome van by the way🤣
Cracking job pal, well organised and the van looks 👌🏻
That is some van .!! Great work .!
I didn’t realise you were organised. Keep it up 👍🏻
great work mate very professional set up
Wiska boxes are my favorite by miles best design ip65 gear imo
Fair play to you, this van set up is absolutely perfect 👌 this is making me think about an upgrade of van!
Question; having lived with your new van, van vaults and layout for nearly 6 months, is there anything you would change?
New van looks good Nick.
Love how you have done the van really smart and definitely will be more efficient brother for the uni lights put a clear film on the roof of the van so the magnets don't scratch the lovely paint.wish you more success thank you for sharing your ideas big up nick
Thanks dude
Every electricians dream 🔥
Metal Plate going rusty? Try either Stainless Steel or Aluminum angle chequer plate, nice layout and ideas!
Balistol wipes are great against rust
Maby put chris and the other ladder and the roof inside and a cover for over back doors when its raining
Apart from that looking gd
Love the cable rolls on the door. Don't you find it a pain having barn doors? No rain's shelter and their always in your way.
When are you going to wrap your pipe carriers?
Will you do a video?
interested to see how they turn out!
Cracking van set up nick 👍
Could you explain the options of it all. I'm wanting a new transit (got vivaro sportive at mo) but with cost of van, straight away I would need security! And racking out. So would be nice of an idea of costs to get it to how you have it. Cos its a stunning van!
Hey mate van cost me 18 grand deadlocks £600 all the wood around 150 V sliders 600 flooring £30 the GPS tracker £200 and then the alarm system on top
Great video it’s good to see how other sparkys work, I’ve just recently took early retirement from being I the electrical trade for more then 40 odd years 😳, and like you I still like things organised 👍keep up the good work

When is Adam doing his Van tour?
Next year 👍
great setup, just one problem... HOW CAN YOU USE BOSCH TOOLS? they are garbage
The ceiling LED lights, from Fleabay? I have the same ones in my van and they last 2 minutes damn them. 2 flicker, 2 don't work, 1 is dim but cba to replace them 2 yeats in ha
Congrats on 100k bro 😎

Excellent job. Well organised. You've inspired me. #Thumbsup
