Space is always at a premium for vehicle converters and camper van enthusiasts. Making the most of every square inch of space can transform a cramped van interior into a comfortable, practical living space.
Rock ‘n’ roll beds and Kombi bed systems are among the most popular features in camper van conversions due to their versatility. They allow seating areas to convert into beds while maintaining valuable storage space beneath quickly.
When combined with high-quality campervan drawer runners, these bed systems can unlock additional storage solutions, allowing converters to create sliding kitchen pods, equipment drawers and modular storage systems that maximise the available space inside the vehicle.
Selecting the right drawer runners is essential when designing sliding storage systems within camper vans. High-quality runners ensure reliability, strength and smooth operation even in demanding environments such as off-road travel or heavy load applications.
Drawer runners supplied by JET PRESS are recommended for applications such as:
Strength and durability – designed for heavy-duty storage drawers mounted beneath bed systems
High load capacities – capable of supporting substantial loads, ideal for kitchen pods, tool storage, or equipment racks
Smooth sliding action – ensuring drawers can be accessed easily even when fully loaded
Long service life – tested for thousands of opening and closing cycles to ensure dependable operation throughout the vehicle's lifespan

In Kombi bed conversions, the bed itself typically remains fixed in position. However, the large storage space beneath the bed offers significant opportunities for modular design.
Drawer runners can be used to mount:
By mounting these modules on drawer runners, converters can create sliding systems that provide easy access to equipment without needing to unload the entire van.
Front disconnect slide mechanisms can also allow modules to be removed quickly, enabling the vehicle to switch between leisure, work, or transport uses.
Choosing the right campervan drawer runners allows storage drawers to move smoothly while supporting heavy loads such as tools, camping equipment or kitchen systems.
Key advantages include:
Smooth operation - Heavy drawers can slide in and out easily, allowing quick access to equipment stored beneath bed systems.
High load capacity - Heavy duty runners allow converters to store bulky equipment such as camping gear, water containers, tools, or cooking equipment.
Efficient use of space - Sliding drawers make it possible to fully utilise under bed storage areas that would otherwise be difficult to access.
In addition to drawer runners, JET PRESS supplies a wide range of hardware used by vehicle converters and specialist manufacturers, including:
These components help converters build reliable and professional-quality interior systems.
