Whether you're a solo glazier with a single van or managing a corporate fleet of hundreds of glass delivery vehicles, MyGlassTruck has you covered. Our client roster is a who's-who of the flat glass industry, and we take pride in that. We're the sweet spot—small enough to maintain that personal touch, yet big enough to handle even the most extensive fleets. At MyGlassTruck, it's not just about the size of the glass; it's about our unwavering commitment to quality service, no matter the scale.  

So, when you have a fleet of 50 vans that need up-fitting, who do you turn to? You turn to the industry experts, of course. That's exactly what Jeld-Wen, one of the country’s leading manufacturers of doors and windows, did when they chose MyGlassTruck racks for their fleet of vans.

State-of-the-Art Glass and Ladder Racks for Jeld-Wen Vans

The equipment being installed on Jeld-Wen's fleet of vans includes a range of top-tier solutions designed to enhance safety, efficiency, and durability. A single driver-side glass rack, specifically the RAM ProMaster Glass Rack from MyGlassTruck, provides a reliable and easy-to-load option for transporting glass. Built to last, this rack can be customized in various lengths and heights to fit each vehicle perfectly. For added convenience, the rack can be installed professionally at MyGlassTruck locations or shipped fully assembled with installation hardware and instructions.

Additionally, the vans are equipped with Twin Deploy Pro Ladder Racks, which feature gas-assisted technology for safe and effortless ladder loading. Constructed from all-aluminum with stainless steel hardware, these racks are built for durability and long-term service. The adjustable ladder support bars ensure a secure fit for different ladder sizes, and the design allows for safe loading and unloading from behind the vehicle, keeping the operator shielded from road hazards.

Inside the vans, a Slider Interior Glass Rack offers a unique and efficient solution for carrying glass inside your vehicle. This system extends up to 70% out of the back of the van, simplifying the loading and unloading process. With a robust design that locks securely in place during transit, the Slider can hold up to 800 pounds and comes standard with E-track and cargo straps to keep glass secure. The opposite side of the rack offers additional storage for tools, making this a versatile and indispensable part of the van's upfit.
