General
What is Dynnox?
Dynnox is a mobile loading, unloading and transport system for commercial vehicles. It consists of a mobile undercarriage with automatically folding legs, a car interface in the load compartment and an installation module for tools, machines or materials. This turns fixed van equipment into a mobile work unit that can be moved directly to the work location. See how Dynnox works.
What are the main benefits of Dynnox?
With Dynnox, you can move tools, parts, machines and materials from the commercial vehicle to the work location in one operation. This reduces walking back and forth, limits heavy lifting and allows work to start sooner. The mobile work unit also creates an organised, professional setup and helps employees work more efficiently. Read more about the benefits of Dynnox.
Which industries and professionals is Dynnox suitable for?
Dynnox is suitable for professionals who work on location with tools, parts, machines or consumables. Examples include electricians, plumbers, heating and HVAC technicians, telecom and fibre-optic technicians, service and maintenance engineers, installers, Smart Repair specialists, veterinary professionals, farriers, grounds-maintenance teams and industrial or logistics service teams. Because the installation module is adapted to the work process, specialist applications are also possible. Explore Dynnox applications and the solution for installation and maintenance work.
How does Dynnox differ from traditional fixed van racking?
With traditional fixed van racking, cabinets, drawers and stock remain inside the vehicle. Tools and materials often have to be carried to the work location in several trips. With Dynnox, the complete organised work unit rolls out of the vehicle and goes directly to the job. This reduces walking and lifting and makes the equipment more flexible and transferable. Fixed racking can still be useful for permanent stock; Dynnox can replace it or work alongside it. View the practical benefits and the Dynnox portfolio.
Can one person load and unload Dynnox?
Yes. Dynnox is designed so that one person can load, unload and move a complete mobile work unit. As the undercarriage moves into or out of the commercial vehicle through the car interface, the legs fold in or out automatically. The user therefore does not have to lift the complete load. A clear loading route, correct weight distribution and a securely mounted installation module remain important. See the stretcher-style loading system for commercial vehicles.
Use and commercial vehicle
Which commercial vehicle brands and models are compatible with Dynnox?
Dynnox is designed for commercial vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes with a suitable, preferably flat load floor and can be used in almost all common vans. Examples include the Ford Transit and Transit Custom, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Vito, Volkswagen Crafter and Transporter, Renault Master and Trafic, Peugeot Boxer and Expert, Citroën Jumper and Jumpy, Opel Movano and Vivaro, Fiat Ducato and Scudo, Toyota Proace, Nissan Interstar and Primastar, Iveco Daily and MAN TGE. This is not an automatic approval list: the door opening, loading height, wheel arches, floor space, loading direction and selected Dynnox model must always be checked. Dynnox is not intended for passenger cars or pick-ups. Compare the Dynnox models or request a compatibility assessment.
Can Dynnox be loaded through both the rear door and the side door?
Yes. Depending on the commercial vehicle and its equipment, Dynnox can be installed and used through either the rear door or the side door. The best loading direction depends on the door opening, loading height, available space, wheel arches, working route and the dimensions of the installation module. This choice must be made before installation so that the car interface can be positioned and tested correctly. View the assembly instructions.
Which Dynnox models are available?
Dynnox is available as the L46, XL36 and XL53. The L46 is medium-sized and manoeuvrable, the XL36 is narrow and long and moves easily through narrower passages, and the XL53 is the widest and largest model for more substantial applications. The right model is selected according to the commercial vehicle, loading route, installation module and the way the system will be used on location.
Can I transfer Dynnox to my next commercial vehicle?
Yes. In many cases, the undercarriage and installation module can be reused when you change commercial vehicles. However, the car interface, wooden floor panel and adjustment will not automatically fit every new vehicle. The loading height, door dimensions, floor, mounting points and chosen loading direction must be checked again. A removable car interface makes transfer easier, but professional adaptation and a new safety test remain necessary. Learn more about the flexible car interface or contact Dynnox.
Are pneumatic tyres available for outdoor use or uneven surfaces?
Yes. Dynnox can optionally be equipped with four larger pneumatic tyres. This version rolls more comfortably over paving, yards, gravel and other less even surfaces. The choice should preferably be made before ordering, because a Dynnox with pneumatic tyres is wider and requires a matching wooden panel and loading tray. Retrofitting is possible, but requires additional parts and adjustment. View the option in the assembly instructions and in the Dynnox webshop.
Installation module
What is an installation module and is it supplied as standard?
The installation module is the functional equipment mounted on the Dynnox undercarriage, such as a drawer cabinet, workbench, machine, water tank, cooler or complete service unit. An installation module is not automatically included with every basic Dynnox system; the exact configuration depends on the selected package and quotation. The undercarriage and car interface form the technical basis, after which you select or develop the appropriate module. View the basic installation module and the available applications.
Which customisation options and installation modules are available?
The installation module can be configured with drawers, cabinets, cases, parts bins, a worktop, machine holders, measuring equipment, a power supply, batteries, a water tank, cooling equipment or other trade-specific components. Depending on the project, components from European vehicle-equipment brands such as Sortimo, bott, Modul-System, BEKS Systems, ALUCA, GEMA, Kit Utilitaire, Syncro System, StoreVan, Tecnolam, Order System, Optima System, MobiRack, FLEXMO, Work System, Würth ORSYmobil, Gruau and System Edström may be considered. Technical suitability must always be assessed for the selected vehicle, Dynnox model, dimensions, total weight, centre of gravity and mounting points. Choose a basic module, an existing cabinet solution or a fully customised design. Explore installation-module options and the portfolio examples.
Can my existing tools, machine or equipment be mounted on Dynnox?
This is often possible because Dynnox is specifically intended to make existing or newly configured equipment mobile. The dimensions, total weight, centre of gravity, mounting points, controls, power supply and route between the commercial vehicle and the work location must be assessed in advance. The machine or cabinet must be securely fixed to the mounting platform without compromising stability or exceeding the maximum load capacity. A dealer determines which construction and model are suitable. View examples of existing equipment on Dynnox.
How is the right installation module designed for my work?
The right installation module starts with your daily work process: which materials you use, in what order, how often and on which surfaces. The commercial vehicle, door opening, loading height, working route, dimensions, total weight, centre of gravity and required accessibility are then determined. The module must remain stable, lock securely and fit within the dimensions of the car interface. A dealer or commercial vehicle fitter translates this information into a practical design. Use the basic installation module as a starting point or request a proposal through the contact page.
Technical aspects
What is the load capacity of the Dynnox L46, XL36 and XL53?
All three Dynnox systems have a maximum load capacity of 250 kg:
- Dynnox L46: maximum 250 kg.
- Dynnox XL36: maximum 250 kg.
- Dynnox XL53: maximum 250 kg.
This capacity applies to the total load on the undercarriage, including the combined weight of the installation module, tools, machines and materials. Also take account of even weight distribution, the centre of gravity and the payload of the commercial vehicle. View the technical details of the three models and the information on quality and TÜV.
What is the car interface?
The car interface is the vehicle-mounted loading and locking system fitted to the load floor of the commercial vehicle. It guides the Dynnox undercarriage during loading, activates the mechanism that folds the legs and positions the undercarriage for transport. After loading, Dynnox locks automatically onto the floor. Accurate installation and adjustment are essential for safe use. Read more about the car interface and Dynnox technology.
Can the car interface be removed from the commercial vehicle?
Yes. In addition to a fixed installation, a removable car interface is available for all Dynnox models. This allows you to free the load compartment temporarily, use a flatter floor when Dynnox is not required or deploy the system on a project basis in another suitable commercial vehicle. The removable version must be installed and locked precisely and checked each time it is fitted. View the options for the Dynnox models.
How long does installation take and is professional installation recommended?
There is no fixed installation time for every commercial vehicle. The time required depends on the Dynnox model, a fixed or removable car interface, the condition and construction of the load floor, installation through the side or rear door and any customised installation module. Ask the dealer for a specific estimate after inspecting the vehicle. Dynnox expressly recommends installation by a professional commercial vehicle fitter or coachbuilder because the positioning, mounting, adjustment and locking must be tested accurately. Installation is completed in three stages; view the 3D assembly instructions.
What maintenance does Dynnox require?
Dynnox is maintenance-friendly because of its straightforward mechanical design, but periodic inspection remains important. Depending on the intensity of use, check the wheels or pneumatic tyres, folding legs, bolted connections, attachment of the installation module, loading tray, car interface and automatic locking system. Keep guides and locking points clean and have any damage, play, collision or possible overloading assessed immediately. Your dealer can replace wear parts and retest the adjustment. Read more about service, spare parts and warranty.
Is Dynnox safe and certified?
Dynnox is TÜV-certified and is automatically locked inside the commercial vehicle by the car interface during transport. Components are tested and inspected throughout the production process and are made from high-quality materials. Certification does not replace correct installation, safe weight distribution, a suitable vehicle floor or proper use. The system should therefore be professionally assembled, installed and tested, and the operating instructions must be followed. Read more about quality, safety and TÜV.
Ordering and service
How much does Dynnox cost?
The total price depends on the selected model, standard wheels or pneumatic tyres, a fixed or removable car interface, the wooden floor panel, mounting materials, the installation module and installation in the commercial vehicle. A complete customised solution therefore cannot be represented by one fixed price. View the currently available systems, components and prices in the Dynnox webshop.
How can I receive a quotation for a complete solution?
Request a quotation and preferably include your company details and VAT number, the make and model of the commercial vehicle, year of manufacture, loading height, preferred loading direction, and the dimensions and weight of your tools, machine or equipment. Also briefly describe your work and the installation module you require. Photos and measurements of the load compartment help with a quick initial assessment. Use the contact page or find a Dynnox dealer.
What is the delivery time?
For Dynnox parts that are in stock, the stated delivery time is generally approximately five to ten working days. A customised installation module, special components, installation scheduling or products that are not in stock may extend the total lead time. The final dispatch or completion date is therefore always stated in the order confirmation. Check availability in the webshop before ordering or contact Dynnox.
What warranty applies to Dynnox and what does it cover?
Dynnox states a standard one-year warranty on all Dynnox parts and assembly, provided that the system has been correctly assembled, tested and professionally installed in the commercial vehicle by a commercial vehicle fitter or coachbuilder. The installer remains responsible for installation in accordance with the standards applicable in the relevant country. An installation module, cabinet, electrical installation or machine supplied by another company may be covered by that supplier’s own warranty conditions. Keep the order confirmation and installation details and have any possible warranty claim assessed by Dynnox or the dealer. View the complete information on quality and warranty and service and spare parts.
Who can help with spare parts, modifications or technical questions?
Your Dynnox dealer or commercial vehicle fitter is normally the first point of contact for inspections, maintenance, replacement parts, adjustment and changes to the installation module. Dynnox can supply original parts and provide technical support when the dealer requires additional assistance. When making an enquiry, include the Dynnox model, serial number or order number, the commercial vehicle and a clear description with photographs. Read more about service and spare parts or contact Dynnox directly.
