What makes VANZEIT ® products so special?

We think differently.

Just one click away, you'll find the same old offerings, often with little practical function and even less understanding from the sellers.

Why? They are neither campers nor manufacturers. The copy is cheap, and you'll end up buying it twice...

You've arrived at the source.

1. New Product Ideas

A missing coat hook in our first California led to my invention of the well-known hooks for the pop-up roof, our ABHÄNG.

Why drill into the Bus? Our EINFACH was born out of my lack of understanding for this and the limited headroom under the overhead lockers on the market.

Every idea matures between our own ears, from actual need and missing solutions.

2. Thoughtful Product Design

First sketches lead to prototypes made of paper and cardboard.

When I am convinced, I design based on the already concrete measurements in CAD.

Using 3D printing, the sewing machine, or our workshop, the design is then being build and tested.

In the final touch, I streamline the design by eliminating unnecessary parts.

3. Tested in everyday camping

Nicole and I take new accessories directly on tour with our bumblebee (aka T6 California Beach).

If a contour is not perfect, or a functionality is not being used at all during camping?

Then it is adjusted and tested again. And if necessary, again...

Only what convinces us during in a season and proves its value is getting produced.

4. Locally manufactured in Northern Germany

We have found our production partners within a few kilometers.

This guarantees short distances and quick, personal agreements with a handshake.

Small series production ensures quick adjustments, even with your suggestions.

5. Certainly More Freedom

Focusing on the essentials gives you more space.

Less ballast means less fuel consumption. You go further.

Simple designs integrate timelessly into your individual setup.

Organization with a system relaxes. Stuffing was yesterday, today you can safely stow your equipment - and find it again tomorrow.

Have a great vacation and a wonderful VANZEIT ®!

Tucks it away and does so directly at the step under the three-person as well as under the two-person sleeping bench in the VW California and Mercedes Marco Polo.
Perfect as shoe shelf - from small children's shoes to full-grown adult hiking boots!

Sliding door on the left? Fits. Sliding door right? Fits.

Of course, the side shelf fits in the VW T5 as well as in the T6 and T6.1, in the Transporter as well as in the Caravelle and in the Multivan.

The base fits for the right AND the left sliding door (e.g. in the California Beach Tour, Volkswagen Transporter and VW Multivan with second sliding door *), right-side in the step and also left-side.

The side shelf base and an attachment also fit in the Mercedes Marco Polo. For the Pössl Campster, Crosscamp, VW Crafter, Mercedes Sprinter and others - hack it yourself, see below.

The modular step shelf that grows as you demand it is - typically VANZEIT® - very easy to plug in. The bench remains fully usable.

Even better:
The otherwise inaccessible 12V socket is finally accessible in the form of optional 2x USB connection or 1x 12 Volt connection per shelf. You are free to choose. All 12V sockets with a diameter of 30 mm fit in the recess for them in the base.

Maximum storage space in the entrance!

You can create additional storage space with the side shelf self assembly kit for the sliding door, just as you like and as it suits you.

For example, start with the base on the step tray for flip-flops, add an attachment as a shoe rack for walking shoes, the second for children's books or nappies when driving, ...

Each tier measures approximately 33.6 x 18.8 x 12.15 cm (W x D x H); where W is the width from left to right, T is the depth into the van and H is the height upwards.

Measures Step Shelf Base
Measures Base Element

The available space between the sliding door and the bench is optimally used by this step shelf in the VW Bus and provides you with the maximum storage space. A dream of storage space and the biggest of its kind!

Measures Step Shelf Floor
Measures Single Floor

Up to three tiers of the shelf (one base plus two tops) fit underneath the bench and up to four(!) flush in the sliding door of VW T5, T6 and T6.1.

The sleeping bench in the California Beach, California Ocean and Multivan can thus be moved further and completely independently.
The drawers under the bench remain fully accessible.

Organice It!

The shoe packing cubes by e.g. Cocoon fit perfectly into the step shelf.

So you can pack wet flip flops, dripping wetsuit shoes, dog bowls, ... whatever you want to pack wet, sandy, crumbly without having to think about cleaning the bus afterwards ... safely. safely packed; stalagtite-free.

Safe. Period.

Attach it safely: The towing protection is provided with an expander opposite the ventilation grille by default or the lashing eye in the passenger compartment.

If a 12V connection for USB or similar is used at the socket, the connection additionally secures the step rack.

By campers for campers

Any dirt that may be present under the soles of the shoes falls through the open shelves down into the step tray and can simply be swept off there.

The open shape of the side shelf ensures optimum ventilation for quick drying.
Warm air from the auxiliary heater at the rear is prevented from flowing out as little as possible, unlike with closed and form-fitting alternatives.

Colored graphite grey, the shelf on the step matches both the black and the grey panelling.
At the same time, the sturdy powder coating stands up to everyday use in the camper - practical for everyday use, provenly experienced in camping practice!

Modular and individual

You can adapt the modular STECKTWASWEG step shelf diy kit for the step on the sliding door in the VW Bus California, Multivan, etc. exactly to your needs:

The shelf modules

With a single base for the flip-flops and a lot of space on top for a water canister, really thick hams aka reading material, etc.
The unique base fits the sliding door on the passenger side and the driver's side.

With the base and an attachment for the extra pair of shoes in it, there is still plenty of space above for books, mobile phones or even mugs underneath the seat, perfect for our Q-Bus Organicer XL.

With two tops for extra storage space on the shelf and a shelf for the smartphone, right next to the USB charging socket, and reading.

A dream of storage space, the narrow space in the step at the sliding door is used optimally.

The shelf accessories

Optionally available elastic bands keep your mobile phone or tablet on the shelf while charging or a book within reach for browsing while driving.
The black rubber bands are available in the following lengths
1 m - perfect for a single basic shelf
2 m - perfect for a set consisting of a base and an attachment
4 m - for once-under-and-around sets consisting of the basic shelf and two tops.

An optional mounting bracket is available as an add-on. You can attach a tabletop to its holes, for example.
The 9 (nine!) round prongs can be used to hang up things such as a comforter, keys or a hat.

Measures Step Shelf Add-On Holder
Add-on Mounting Bracket

Put it away? Safe! For Safer Stecks aka additional security, there's a rubber. Not for pulling over, but for tightening ... on the rail in the floor of your VW California or Multivan.

Hack It Yourself

We think DIY is good and upcycling is even better.

With our system, you can build and design your step shelf just the way you want it.

The individual levels are firmly screwed together with four M5 screws each.
