Ford Transit One-Stop Curtain Slider
Giving superb load access, the new Ford Transit CurtainSlider is the latest in bodywork design. It is available in 3.6 m and 4.0 m internal body lengths, with a host of innovative and practical features are available as standard for everyday operating tasks.
We've provided sliding, semi-rigid curtains - ideal for pallet loads used in the Distribution and Just-in-Time industries, where productivity and load turn-around are critical. The CurtainSlider gives you maximum flexibility in loading and unloading from three sides of the load area, whether it's fast access from the sides using fork trucks, or load bay access using the rear doors.
The sliding design of the curtains pleat efficiently when opened, giving you maximum access width to the load area. Once unloaded, any remaining load can be reached by pulling the curtain to the other end of the body.
Other useful features include the standard aero-pack for reducing drag, improving journey times, fuel economy and reducing driver fatigue.
You can also tailor the One-Stop CurtainSlider with a range of optional equipment, such as a bespoke curtain colourway and screen printing service.

Ford Transit One-Stop Box Van
Robust enough to cope with the knocks encountered in multi-drop distribution, the ply/grp panelled Box Van easily carries a competitive payload. It comes with a choice of 115 PS or 140 PS Duratorq TDCi diesel engines, a comfortable cab, as well as a host of convenient standard and optional equipment for the flexibility you need.
The steel rear door frame allows for tail-lift installation at the time of build, or as a retro-fit at a later date. Meanwhile, a flat load floor with a generous rear aperture ensures you can use the loadspace to the maximum.
You’ll also find that the little details are important, too. To help restrain the load, an innovative load restraint system uses telescopic load poles you can place anywhere along the van’s body length at four heights. In addition to the ratchet straps, your load is safely and flexibly restrained.
We also have a range of optional bodywork that you can specify to your exact needs. A GRP Luton head takes full advantage of the area above the cab, while a cargo net effectively restrains items within the Luton. For maximum access to heavier loads, a lightweight pillar tail-lift is available.
