The aluminum roof rack for Citroën Jumpers built in 2006 or later is a robust and aerodynamic transport solution for professional use. Craftsmen, service providers, and delivery companies benefit from the streamlined design, especially when driving frequently on the highway: less air turbulence, a more pleasant noise level, and a practical roof loading area for long and bulky materials.
Technical data & important product information
-
Vehicle: Citroën Jumper from model year 2006 onwards
-
Material: Galvanized, corrosion-resistant aluminum
-
Installation time: approx. 35–45 minutes
-
Safety standard: 20 g crash-tested according to ECE 17.07
-
Installation height: approx. 24 cm from the top edge of the roof
-
Crossbars: can be positioned freely along the rail
-
Rear doors: suitable for vehicles with hinged doors (according to table)
Scope of delivery:
✔ Aluminum roof basket system
✔ Rear rollers for easier loading (included as standard, across the entire width)
✔ Mounting feet & mounting material
✔ Installation instructions (under "Technical details")
The standard rear rollers make it much easier to slide ladders, pipes, or long profiles onto the roof rack. Compared to roof racks without rollers, loading is more controlled—a clear advantage if the roof rack is used daily.

Transport & logistics: additional roof loading space when the cargo area is already full
Aerodynamics comparison – Rhino vs. angular roof racks
On large vans such as the Jumper, roof structures have a particular effect on wind noise. Compared to angular crossbars, the tubular shape is designed for a smoother airflow. This is particularly relevant if the van is used daily on expressways and highways.
Material comparison – aluminum vs. steel for van class
⚖️ Aluminum or steel – which is better suited to the Citroën Jumper?
| Criterion |
Aluminum roof rack |
Steel beams |
| Dead weight |
Lighter – more reserve for roof load/loading |
Heavier |
| Corrosion protection |
Very high – ideal for year-round operation |
Depending on coating |
| Handling in everyday use |
Low maintenance, robust |
Requires more maintenance after stone chips |
| Noise |
Often quieter due to profile |
Highly dependent on design |
Roof basket vs. cross bars – why roof baskets often have an advantage in commercial use
A roof basket is particularly useful when transporting bulky or varying loads frequently. Compared to individual cross bars, you benefit from more contact surface, more securing points, and better load distribution – especially for ladders, pipes, or sheet material.
Why Rhino instead of cheaper roof racks?
Especially with large vans, details determine suitability for everyday use. Inexpensive carriers often compromise on fit, fastening, and comfort features. Rhino relies on a system that is designed for professional continuous use.

FAQ – Aluminum roof rack for Citroën Jumper from 2006 onwards
Which Citroën Jumper models is the roof rack suitable for?
The roof rack is suitable for Citroën Jumpers from 2006 onwards. Please select the variant based on the length (point 18), height (point 20), and year of manufacture (point 6) in the vehicle registration document, as well as the vehicle designation (L1–L4 / H1–H3).
Are rear rollers included in the scope of delivery?
Yes. The rear rollers are included as standard and extend across the entire width. This makes it easier and more controlled to slide long items such as ladders or pipes onto the rack.
Can I move the cross tubes?
Yes. The cross tubes can be flexibly positioned along the rail. This allows you to adjust the support points to your load – e.g., for ladders, pipes, or panels.
Do I need to drill holes for installation?
No. Installation is carried out at the factory-set fixing points under the plastic covers on the roof. Fixing point installation without drilling is provided.
What are the advantages of a roof basket over crossbars on the Jumper?
A roof basket offers more support surface and more securing points. This is particularly useful for large vans that frequently transport bulky or varying loads.
Which accessories are most popular for long loads?
The Porte Tube Pro is often popular for long loads, as it transports pipes and rod material safely. For ladders, Safe Clamp and LadderStow are practical additions to everyday work.
