Power, water and weight for your Transit
The planner calculates your whole conversion, not just the furniture – and at the end you know exactly what to buy. Power, water, insulation and axle loads are included in Monthly and the Project Pass, the shopping lists (build kits) in the Project Pass.
Plan your power
Enter your appliances – cool box, lights, heater, laptop. The planner works out your daily consumption, how long your leisure battery lasts and how quickly solar, the alternator and shore power recharge it. Plus cable size and fuse for every circuit.
Plan your water
Tank, pump and boiler: the planner shows how many litres you need per day, how long your tank lasts and how much hot water the boiler delivers – including pipe lengths to every tap.
Weight and axle loads
Every item brings its weight to its spot. The planner spreads everything over the front and rear axle, also with full tanks and passengers, and warns you before your Transit gets too heavy.
Shopping lists for your Transit
Your design becomes a ready-made shopping list: the power kit (battery, chargers, fuses, cables in the right size and length), the water kit (tank, pump, boiler, pipes, taps), the cutting kit (wood and boards with cutting plan and cut list) and the insulation kit (insulation per surface in whole rolls and boards, adhesive and tape) – made for your Transit. Tick off, share or take along as PDF and CSV.
Insulation
Material and thickness for roof, walls, doors, floor and wheel arches – or a ready-made package: Summer, Four seasons or Winter sports. The planner calculates the heat loss, checks whether your heater is up to it and where condensation can form, and shows the manufacturer’s installation guideline for your Transit.
GasSoon
Plan the gas bottle, hob and gas heater safely, with everything you need for it. Coming soon – also with a shopping list.
Ready-made layouts for your Transit
Pick a template and the planner fits all the furniture into your Ford. From the rock and roll bed in the Transit Custom to the twin single beds in the big Transit L4, it’s all there. Open every template directly in the matching model and rearrange it freely afterwards.
Transit Custom (2012–2023) L1H1Rock and roll bed
Bench seat at the rear that folds flat into a bed at night (rock and roll bed), kitchen along the left wall. For compact and low-roof vans.
Transit Custom (2012–2023) L1H1Garage bed with slatted base + workspace
Garage at the rear with a slatted base that slides forward at night and then rests on a height-adjustable table, and on the worktop where possible. By day that table is your workspace, with an L-shaped bench or benches around it.
Transit Custom (2012–2023) L2H2French bed (lengthways)
Lengthways double bed at the rear on the left, walkway on the right, kitchen up front.
Transit Custom (from 2023) L2H2Twin single beds
Two single beds along the sides with a walkway between them, garage underneath.
Transit Custom (2012–2023) L2H1Side benches with pedestal table
Two ochre velvet benches facing each other with a pedestal table in between. By day a walkway to the rear doors, at night one bed across the full width. Open shelves on the rear doors.
What matters in a Transit
Custom or big Transit: two very different conversions. The planner knows both.
Transit Custom: sleeping compact
In a standard-roof Custom, the rock and roll bed is the classic: a bench by day, a flat bed at night, with a kitchen unit along the wall. The planner has it as a ready-made template for the short and long wheelbase.
Pop-top or high roof?
Put a pop-top with roof bed on your Custom or plan with the high factory roof (H2). The planner shows the headroom you end up with, and warns you if a cabinet is in the way of the pop-top.
Big Transit: more length
The load space of the big Transit is 1,784 mm wide. With the standard wall build-up, a fixed transverse bed rests against the 18 mm wall battens; between them there are 1,748 mm – just under the 1,750 mm the planner requires for it. You can still sleep crosswise: in the garage bed with a pull-out slatted base. And from the L3 up, the choice of layouts grows, all the way up to twin single beds.
Two Custom generations
The planner has the Custom as a 2012–2023 model and as the new generation from 2023, each with its own factory dimensions. You plan the new VW Transporter from 2025 the same way, by the way: it has the same load space as the new Custom.
Three steps to your layout
Everything runs in your browser – nothing to install. You create an account and try it free for 7 days.
Choose your Transit
Choose your variant (with Monthly or the Project Pass) and enter your wall build-up. The planner then works with the net interior dimensions – not the bare metal.
Build your layout
Start from a template or drag items in: beds, kitchen, bathroom, water tank, battery, heater and more – over 90 item types, every dimension to the millimetre.
Check and save
Collisions turn red and your design is saved automatically. Weight, axle loads and exporting the parts list come with Monthly or the Project Pass.
All Transit models with factory dimensions
Load space, wheelbase and overall length come from the manufacturer’s specifications. Click “Open” and the variant starts straight away in the planner.

Frequently asked questions
Which Transit models can I plan?
The Transit Custom in both generations (2012–2023 and from 2023) and the big Transit from 2014, each in the lengths and heights from the dimensions table above. For other dimensions, choose “Custom dimensions”. For the big Transit, the planner assumes rear-wheel drive for the L4 variant.
Can I plan a pop-top?
Yes. In the planner, add a pop-top from the items under “Roof & exterior”, with a roof bed if you like. The planner shows the headroom under the open roof and the size of the roof bed. The button at the top starts the Transit Custom straight off with a pop-top.
What does the planner cost?
You try it free for 7 days, without payment details: one design in a set van, with all parts and templates, collision checks and day/night. After that the trial ends by itself: no subscription keeps running and you can still view your design. More designs, a different van or variant, the power and axle load calculations and the export come with Monthly (€7.99 per month, cancel any month) or the Project Pass (€39.99 one-off, 12 months of access). Prices include VAT.
How accurate are the dimensions?
Load space, wheelbase and exterior dimensions come from the manufacturer’s specifications, as do the door dimensions where known. The position and size of the wheel arches and the shape of the side walls, which slope inwards towards the top, are estimates that you can adjust in the planner. Always measure your own van before cutting anything.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. You drag items with one finger, rotate the view with one finger on an empty spot and zoom with two fingers. For fine-tuning dimensions a laptop is more comfortable, though.
Does the planner replace a vehicle inspection?
No. The planner helps you plan and check, but it does not replace professional advice on the construction, an inspection or approval by your vehicle authority (such as the RDW in the Netherlands or TÜV and DEKRA in Germany), or measuring your own van.
