DIY van conversion kits from The Vansmith
Not every van conversion needs to be a full professional build. If you enjoy working with your hands and want to save on labor costs, our DIY van conversion kits give you professional-grade components you install yourself. Every product we sell is built in our Boulder, Colorado shop using the same materials and quality standards as our full van conversions.
What makes our DIY kits different
Most DIY van conversion kits on the market are generic flat-pack solutions. Ours are built by the same team that has completed over 300 custom van builds since 2016. We know what works because we install these components every day. You get precision-cut Baltic Birch cabinets, properly insulated wall panels, and hardware that lasts. No guesswork, no compromise on materials.
Products available for DIY installation
We offer upper cabinets, galley kitchen cabinets, storage benches, bed platforms, ceiling slats in cedar and Blue Kill Pine, floor panel kits, and wall panels. Most products are designed for Mercedes Sprinter and Ford Transit vans, 2018 or newer. Browse our full DIY product catalog to see what fits your van.
Need help choosing
Not sure which components work for your van or your build plan? Email us at diy@thevansmith.com and our team will help you figure out the right setup. We can also handle the parts you do not want to tackle yourself through our installation services.
Professional installation available
If you start a DIY project and decide you want professional help, we offer individual installation services at our Boulder shop. You can mix and match: install the simple stuff yourself and bring your van to us for the technical work like electrical, plumbing, or window cuts.
