Rain cover for back doors of van
#1
I have to stand at the back of my van and load a box of sweets and snacks for a few minutes before going into different businesses as part of my job but if it's raining it's difficult to avoid the products getting wet. Has anyone ever heard of or made any type of rain cover for the back doors? It would need to come out about 30-40cm I think as it's just to protect the products from getting wet, not myself, but I can't think of an easy way to fit a board or flap to the inside of the roof.

If it's the products that you're concerned about rather than yourself, can't you just carry some plastic bags to put the products in before you unload them?

I go into the site and write down what I need then I have to decant pots of sweets from several boxes lined up at the back door into a separate plastic box to then take into the sites so I can't wrap them up beforehand.

Just this moment spotted a guy working a house near us who has a Berlingo and he has a huge great golfing umbrella sitting on top of his two open rear doors. It must be at least 1.8m diameter.  Maybe a patio type parasol could be adapted to suit. https://www.diy.com/departments/curacao-...718_BQ.prd

I swear I've seen barn door vans with a roof mount fibreglass canopy that slides back over the barn doors but darned if I can find them on google. I want to say I saw them on roadwork vans.

Maybe swap the barn doors for a lift up door. That was one factor in choosing the MPV, I could stand in dry while dragging stuff in an out.
