Excellent, but then saw it cheaper at Tool-station which annoyed me a little.

Great thanks. I ordered roof bars for ford transit custom and they are a bit short. I notice they do some wider ones at 1500mm these should be the standard one for the custom or it should be clear the other ones are short.

You need 2 separate keys to open as you can’t remove keys when it is open only fault

Hi there. Pipe tube and roof bars meet expectations, well done and thanks. Only the following negatives. #1 roof bar mounting bolts too long for middle RHS bar. #2 the lower plastic covers dont seem to add any weather protection and not that very aesthetically pleasing. #3 the pipe tube mounting device does not contain any antitheft / security device(s). Thank you for this opportunity to support you with product improvements. Giz.

Hi Mark, Thank you for taking the time to leave us this feedback. It's great to see your comments regarding your new Ulti Rack+ and how the installation went. I can appreciate there are quite a few parts that come with our roof racks, we like to try and keep our prices low for our customers so there is a bit of construction required upon installation but I'm confident that you'll love our finished product. We hope to see you again soon. Chris

Great service, but very costly if I had found the items I wanted elsewhere and if they where a bit cheaper I may well have gone there. Rob Coleman

The product itself is very good, excellent build quality. The staff on the phone are just average, they do not know what you are asking them, if you ask specific questions. They look for answers on the website just like you. I would still buy it again and would highly recommend. Just do your own research.

Hi Razvan, Thank you for taking the time to leave us this feedback regarding your recent order. It’s great to see that you feel our items have an excellent build quality. Sorry that you feel the service you received was average. Due to the sheer amount of items we sell, the team do have to refer to the website from time to time, however we are continuously training the team on different product ranges to give the best customer experience possible. Hopefully this will be reflected the next time you call in. We hope to see you again soon. Chris

The side panels were difficult to fit on the front as the brackets did not exactly fit with the connector; panel fitting not parallel with the bracket. Took some time to sort and glad the other cross bars are connected to ensure secure. Yet to use but looks fit for my purpose.

I will pass this feedback onto our production team to see if there’s any changes that can be made. I’m glad that on first inspection it looks like it’s fit for your purpose. I hope the functionality lives up to your expectations. We hope to see you again soon. Chris

Service is good overall , fast delivery , good website and advice and the roof bars are great , the additional roller I ordered I wasn’t happy with as the length of the roller is too short , I would say it isn’t practical to use along with the bars to load roof . The roller should be the same length as the roof bars to make it easier to loess roof

Good quality kit, promptly delivered. Would have awarded one more star had the instructions been totally clear

Good looking rails, however Inherently low security:To remove the brackets, all you need is a spanner. Simply unscrew and carry away the attached rails and pipe carrier still locked and full of copper!

Good kit generally, good price and decent delivery times however... Items arrived in damaged packaging but all seemed ok until I tried to fit the rear roller - the bracket (one of) for which was bent. I didn't have the option of returning so carried on regardless and straightened it out only to find that the anti-vibration washers supplied with it weren't big enough to fit the thread for the support legs (looks like they were M6 washers and an M8 bar) so ha to go our and buy 250 washers (smallest quantity of the right size I could find locally) in order to fit, To be fair I didn't raise this with the company so can't mark them down at all for service, just a shame the rear roller let the rest of the kit down. I'd still buy again in future though as the price was good and once on everything seems great, plus I've got enough washers if that's an issue next time :)

Good Afternoon, Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review it is much appreciated. I am sorry to hear that your parcel arrived damaged & that M6 washers were received & not M8 washers. I have made the relevant department aware of the issue who have begun checking these kits to ensure that all are correct. I am glad that now the system is fitted you are happy with the product & would use us again in the future. Thank you again for your feedback - Laura Woodward

Happy with the product as a whole but the ladder roller has two rust spots on the left side and it hasn't been used yet

Great quality accessories. The only thing which could be improved on the design is the lock for the pipe carrier is on the bottom and with a tail gate it is very awkward to open.

Love the products however this is my second roof rack from van guard and the load stops are seized already, I had this problem with my previous rack and was advised by van line to just cut them off and buy more, not really what you want to hear after buying what you thought was a quality built product. This aside the actual racks are quality and well finished with a good online service.
