Why should I fit a rear roller to my van?
There is one piece of kit that you might overlook when you are fitting out your van with roof bars and that piece of kit is a roller. Do you want your vehicles kept in good condition and be able to load and unload materials and equipment quickly?
Rollers protect your van from damage
Loading materials and ladders onto your vehicle from the rear is where you are likely to cause damage to your van without a roller. If you are not able to lift the load high enough as you load you will inevitably need to push items up the rear of your van. This will scrape and dent the rear doors and roof of your van. Apart from looking scruffy, this is going to damage the paint which is protecting your vehicle from the elements.
Rollers make your life easier
A roller fitted to your rear roof bar can save you time and energy in loading materials and ladders onto your van. Think about a large heavy sheet, with a roller this slides quickly and easily onto the roof of your van.
How do I fit a roller?
Fitting a roller to your roof bars is easy and takes around 30 minutes to complete. All rollers are manufacturer-specific and vehicle model-specific which means if you have Rhino roof bars, only a Rhino roller for your particular vehicle model will fit your van. You will just need a 10mm & 13mm spanner to complete this work.
