A high-performance cargo van starts from the ground up—and installing StabiliGrip Floor for the GMC Savana delivers the durability to match. This upgrade adds serious protection while improving traction and overall usability. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the full installation process, highlight key benefits, and share pro tips so you can protect your investment and get more out of every job.

Why Installing StabiliGrip Floor in GMC Savana is Essential

First, factory vinyl floors wear quickly under heavy use. Next, spills and debris can damage bare sheet metal. Therefore, fitting a StabiliGrip rigid floor solves these issues. Moreover, the textured surface prevents slips. Finally, this upgrade simplifies cleaning and extends your van’s resale value.

Key Benefits of StabiliGrip Rigid Flooring

When we recommend StabiliGrip floor, we highlight these notable features:

  • Non-Slip Textured Surface: Maximizes traction in wet or muddy conditions
  • Heavy-Gauge Construction: Resists dents and tool drops
  • Moisture-Resistant Material: Blocks liquids and chemical corrosion
  • Modular Three-Piece Design: Fits extended and standard wheelbases

Additionally, this kit includes pre-cut panels matched to GMC Savana contours.

Preparing Your Savana for Installation

Before mounting StabiliGrip flooring, follow these steps:

  1. Remove Factory Flooring
     First, peel up old vinyl and padding. Meanwhile, clear out debris and adhesive residue.
  2. Clean and Dry
     Next, wipe all surfaces with a mild degreaser. Then, let the van air dry completely.
  3. Unpack Your Kit
     Finally, lay out panels and hardware. Meanwhile, confirm you have all three floor pieces and door sills.

By preparing thoroughly, you ensure a smooth install and maximum adhesive performance.

Step-by-Step: Installing StabiliGrip Floor in GMC Savana

  1. Position the First Panel
     First, place the driver-side panel against the step trim. Meanwhile, align around the fuel fill opening.
  2. Apply Aluminum H-Channel
     Next, spread the supplied adhesive into the channel’s top and bottom. Then, tap the channel into the joint between panels.
  3. Insert the Center Panel
     Afterwards, slide in the middle piece. Meanwhile, gently tap along edges to seat the panel fully.
  4. Fit the Rear Panel
     Then, align the last section around the rear d-ring cutouts. Consequently, the floor lies flush from front to back.
  5. Secure with H-Channels
     Finally, install the second aluminum H-channel between middle and rear panels. Afterwards, let the adhesive set per instructions.

Throughout, use a rubber mallet for minor taps. Moreover, wear gloves to handle fiberglass-reinforced panels safely.

Adding Steel Door Sills for Extra Protection

In addition to your new floor, consider steel door sills to shield entry points:

  • Bright Yellow Finish: Enhances visibility and safety
  • Heavy-Duty Steel: Guards against scrapes and scuffs
  • Simple Bolt-On Install: Uses existing sheet-metal holes
