The floor panel is supplied in several parts. This makes it easier to install in the vehicle and adapt precisely to the geometry of the cargo area.
Material structure of the aluminum checker plate floor panel
The transporter floor is available in either 9 mm or 12 mm thickness. The substrate is a phenolic resin-bonded screen-printed floor made of birch plywood in accordance with EN 312-2 / Class 3, which is specially designed for use in commercial vehicles.
The aluminum checker plate surface in a durable quintet design increases slip resistance and reliably protects the floor from mechanical stress caused by tools, machines, or transported goods.
Installation and secure fastening
Installation is carried out from front to rear in the cargo area. The individual floor panel segments are screwed together and, once installed, form a stable, closed loading area. The screw connections are discreet and do not impair the usability of the cargo area.
The supplied lashing recesses are inserted into the designated recesses and secured with the original lashing eyes of the VW Crafter. For wide vehicle variants, a light adhesive can optionally be used between the body and the floor panel to minimize possible vibrations.
Airline rails for flexible load securing
Optionally, airline rails can be integrated transversely to the direction of travel under the roof rails. The floor panel is milled to fit precisely and the airline rails are permanently glued in place.
The airline rails are each 1.20 m long and are ideal for securing loads with locking bars. Please note that airline rails can only be integrated with 9 mm thick floor panels. Different lengths or positions are available on request.

FAQ – Aluminum checker plate transporter floor for VW Crafter L3
For which VW Crafter variants is the transporter floor with L3 wheelbase suitable?
The transporter floor for VW Crafter L3 is intended for vehicles built in 2017 or later whose wheelbase and cargo space dimensions correspond to the L3 version. The decisive factor is the comparison of the vehicle data from the vehicle registration certificate with the specified dimensions.
Is the L3 floor suitable for front-wheel, rear-wheel, and all-wheel drive?
Yes, the floor is suitable for front-wheel drive (FWD), rear-wheel drive (RWD), and all-wheel drive (AWD) vehicles, provided that the L3 geometry of the vehicle matches.
Why do the cargo area heights differ for L3?
In the VW Crafter, the cargo area heights vary depending on the roof variant (e.g., H2 or H3) and, in some cases, on the drive type. Therefore, the height specifications should always be checked against your own vehicle.
How is the aluminum checker plate transporter floor attached in the VW Crafter L3?
The floor is laid out in segments and screwed into place. The lashing recesses supplied are inserted into the designated openings and secured with the vehicle's original lashing eyes.
Which thickness is recommended – 9 mm or 12 mm?
9 mm is particularly suitable if weight needs to be saved or airline rails are planned. 12 mm is recommended for high continuous loads or when transporting heavy goods.
Can airline rails be integrated into the VW Crafter L3?
Yes, airline rails can be integrated as an option. This option is usually only possible with 9 mm thick floor panels.
