Hello, Im thinking of purchasing a rhino rack for my mini van. I was wondering if it can hold up to 32 foot ladders? I want to use it for my painting business to hold ladders, but also for a kayak rhino and bike rack kuat trio

Hey Brett, yes a rhino rack roof rack like the Rhino Rack Custom Fit Roof Rack Kit # RR54GE with some ratchet straps will work fine with two 32' ladders. You're likely going to have a bit of hang-over from the ladders, but if that's fine then you're good to go.

If you can let me know what van you have, I'd be happy to help get you a custom roof rack.
