When local businesses need tough, purpose-built solutions, they turn to the experts. Mister Rain, a trusted underground sprinkler system company serving our community since 1969, brought us their RAM ProMaster 2500 with a simple request: make it work harder.

At Torklift Central, our in-house Retail Product Development Center (RPDC) thrives on custom jobs just like this. Whether it’s modifying vehicles for fleet use or building one-off accessories you won’t find anywhere else, the RPDC is where innovation meets fabrication.

The Mission: Function Meets Durability

Mister Rain needed their ProMaster to be outfitted with a ladder and roof rack system that could handle daily use — carrying long, bulky gear while staying lightweight and low-profile.

Using their needs as a blueprint, our RPDC team designed and fabricated:

  • A custom aluminum roof rack with a clean, aerodynamic profile
  • A heavy-duty ladder mounted directly to the rear door, giving quick and safe access to roof cargo

Both components were powder-coated at our in-house powder coat facility for durability and designed to seamlessly match the van’s clean, professional look.
