The aluminum checker plate cargo area lining for the new Ford Transit Custom II with short wheelbase from model year 2023 offers reliable protection for the cargo area side walls during daily vehicle use. Especially in the trades, in the service and assembly sector, or in commercial transport, the interior walls of the cargo area are constantly exposed to mechanical stress. The robust aluminum checker plate lining effectively protects the bodywork from damage caused by cargo, tools, or machinery.
Aluminum checker plate cargo area cladding for Ford Transit Custom II – short wheelbase (L1H1)
The precisely CNC-machined side wall cladding made of aluminum checker plate is tailored exactly to the cargo area contours of the Ford Transit Custom L1H1 from model year 2023 onwards. It is suitable for vehicles with a short wheelbase and is intended exclusively for use in panel vans. Thanks to its precise manufacturing, the cladding fits seamlessly into the cargo area and ensures a durable, functional interior.
The aluminum checker plate with quintet embossing combines high stability with a comparatively low weight. This preserves the vehicle's payload while providing permanent protection for the side walls against scratches, dents, and abrasion.

Selectable side wall paneling designs
The aluminum corrugated cargo area paneling for the Ford Transit Custom is available in different versions to best suit the respective application.
Split side wall paneling:
This version consists of several precisely fitting segments and is particularly suitable for vehicles with existing fittings or for flexible retrofitting. Individual areas can be specifically protected without covering the entire cargo area.
Large-area side panel cladding:
The large-area version covers the side panels almost completely and offers maximum protection for the bodywork. It is ideal for vehicles that regularly transport heavy or bulky goods and where continuous surface protection is desired.
Design for tailgate or wing doors
The aluminum checker plate cargo area covering is available for vehicles with tailgates or double doors. The respective covering elements are precisely adapted to the door shape and take into account the lower door areas and specific cutouts.
This ensures that both tailgates and hinged doors are continuously protected on the sensitive inner door surfaces.
Material and scope of delivery
The aluminum checker plate used has a material thickness of 1.5 to 2.0 mm and is resistant to moisture, water, and many chemicals. This makes the trim ideal for long-term use in everyday commercial applications. In addition, aluminum is completely recyclable.
Depending on the version selected, the scope of delivery includes the side wall coverings, the sliding door covering including window cutout, and the lower cutouts of the rear doors. A complete mounting kit is included in the scope of delivery.
