Frequently asked questions

• Can I walk on the roof rack and hang out up there?
  Of course! It wouldn't be a deck without being able to enjoy it! Whether you just want to hang out and catch a sunset or need a spot to mount solar panels and gear, the rooftop deck can accommodate the load. However, it is not recommended while the vehicle is in motion.
• What's Included in the Summit package?
  The Summit package includes:
  
  Base Perimeter Rack
  Made of extruded aluminum, the Base Perimeter Rack consists of extruded aluminum outer rails, the Riser Kit, and all hardware to mount to your factory mounting points. The Perimeter rack is flush mounted, making it low and tight to the van, while still allowing for easy access to tie-downs.
  
  7 Planks
  The Rooftop Deck planks run perpendicular to your van (driver side to passenger side) and provide cross support and deck surface. They sport gridded holes and mounting points for maximum versatility. All necessary hardware included.
  
  9 Deck Boards
  The Deck Boards create additional stability on the walkable, usable surface of the Approach roof rack and bolt directly into the Planks. All necessary hardware included.
• What is the weight of the rack?
  The total weight of the Summit rack is 139.98 - 150.06lbs.
• What are the Shipping, Warranty & Return Polices?
  Shipping
  In most cases we ship your rack the same business day! The Rooftop Deck (RTD) Package is modular, which means it ships in just a few standard-size boxes without the need for oversize freight. Plus, since we fabricate the RTD in Fort Collins, we are always in stock. All orders over $99 ship free to the continental United States.

An additional 10% restocking fee is added to products that are powder coated.
  
  We allow returns on the RTD when it is in new, unused condition up to 90 days. Learn more about our return policy.
  
  Warranty
  We at Van Cafe stand behind our products 100%. We are confident you will be happy with the quality and craftsmanship of your Rooftop Deck. However, should something arise we warranty the RTD for up to one year from the purchase date. Learn more about our warranty policy
• How long does installation take? Can I do it myself?
  We estimate about six hours for installation.
  
  You will start by attaching the Riser Kit to the factory mounting points, then the Base Perimeter Rack (the extruded aluminum rails), followed by the Planks, and finally Deck Boards. You can view the instructions via the links below:
