THE FOUNDATION UNDER EVERYTHING.
Power distribution, battery protection, consoles, partitions, mounting, storage and mission equipment. It's the part of the build nobody sees until something stops working.
Console, partition and cargo area.
Every system in the vehicle draws power, and most of it is distributed from the cargo area and the console. Partitions, storage and mounts decide how the rest of the space can be used.
Power, space and structure.
- Power distribution. Fused, labeled distribution sized for the full equipment load.
- Battery protection. Low-voltage protection and timers so equipment doesn't strand the vehicle.
- Charging + shore power. Device chargers and plug-in charging for vehicles that sit between shifts.
- Consoles + mounting. Consoles and mounts that hold radio, lighting and data controls in a logical layout.
- Partitions + transport. Partitions and rear-seat transport configurations where the assignment requires them.
- Storage + mission equipment. Cargo drawers, secure storage and mounts for the gear the job demands.
Plan the load before the install.
Power problems rarely show up on delivery day. They show up after a long night at idle or a weekend parked. These questions prevent that.
Vehicle Upfit Planning Worksheet
Capture the assignment, platform, equipment and power needs before the first quote.
- What's the total load? Every device, running at the same time, at idle, on a hot day.
- What runs with the engine off? Video, routers and docks may need to keep running. Everything else should shut down.
- How long does it sit? Take-home, shift-change and seasonal vehicles need different battery protection.
- Who rides in back? Partitions, transport seating and rear controls depend on the assignment.
- What has to be secured? Weapons, equipment and cargo need mounts that hold in a crash.
- Can a technician trace it? Labeled circuits and documented layouts make future service simple.
Selected for the requirement.
Brand selection is driven by the vehicle, compatibility and what the operator needs. A brand listed here doesn't mean we're a dealer for, or endorsed by, that manufacturer. See Brands.
