Raised Floors & False Floors for Vans
Double your usable space with a raised floor. A raised floor (also called a false floor) creates a hidden storage layer under your load area — perfect for pipes, conduit, ladders, lengths of timber and anything long that usually ends up rolling around the van. Every floor is designed around your van and installed by our team at Team Valley, Gateshead.
What Is a Van Raised Floor?
A raised floor sits above your van’s original floor, supported on a frame, to create a second level of storage underneath. You keep a flat, solid load area on top while long or awkward items stay tucked away below — out of sight and secure.
Who Is a Raised Floor For?
• Plumbers & heating engineers — store copper pipe, plastic pipe and fittings flat and protected
• Electricians — conduit, trunking and cable drums kept off the floor
• Joiners & builders — timber lengths, levels and long tools out of the way
• Window fitters & roofers — trims, flashings and ladders stored safely
• Couriers & multi-drop — a clean flat floor on top, spares and kit below
Why Choose a Plyline Raised Floor?
• More storage, same van— use the space you already have
• Designed around your van — planned around your vehicle’s dimensions, wheel arches and access points
• Works with our racking — designed to sit alongside our plywood racking and ply lining kits
• Professionally installed — fitted by our experienced team at Team Valley, Gateshead
How It Works
1. Tell us about your van — the make, model and what you carry day to day
2. We advise on the right setup — the best configuration for your vehicle and equipment
3. We install it — fitted by our team at our Team Valley depot
4. Add racking and ply lining — combine it with the rest of your van setup if you need to

Pair It With Racking & Ply Lining
A raised floor works best as part of a full setup. Add plywood racking on top for everyday tools and a ply lining kit to protect your panels.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a raised floor and a false floor?
Nothing — they're two names for the same thing. Both describe a second floor level built above your van's original floor to create hidden storage underneath
Why fit a raised floor in a van?
It turns unused space into concealed storage, keeps tools and equipment out of sight, reduces clutter in the load area and leaves you with a flat, durable working surface on top.
Can I fit racking on top of a raised floor?
Yes. Our raised floors are designed to work with our plywood racking, so you can combine underfloor storage with shelving above.
What can I store under a raised floor?
Anything long or flat — pipes, conduit, timber, levels, trims, ladders and spare stock.
Can a raised floor be combined with ply lining?
Yes. A raised floor can be built into a wider van fit-out alongside ply lining, racking and shelving for a complete, organised workspace

Yes — our team supplies and installs raised floors at our Team Valley depot in Gateshead.
