Mercedes Sprinter Partitions & Bulkheads

Sprinter Van Partitions & Bulkheads

If you run a Mercedes Sprinter for work, adding a Sprinter van partition (also called a Sprinter bulkhead) is one of the most valuable upgrades you can make. A Sprinter van partition creates a protective barrier between the cab and the cargo area—helping keep you safer, reducing road noise, and improving heating and cooling performance in the cab.

Whether you call it a partition or a bulkhead, the purpose is the same: protect the cab and keep tools, materials, and jobsite gear where they belong. A quality Sprinter van partition can help reduce the risk of loose cargo shifting forward during hard braking, sudden stops, or an accident. It also helps make your Sprinter more comfortable on long days by blocking noise and limiting heat/cold transfer from the cargo area.

Contractors, service pros, and fleets choose Sprinter partitions because they deliver real-world benefits:

1. Safety: Helps protect occupants from shifting cargo
2. Comfort: Reduces road noise and improves climate control
3. Security: Helps keep tools and inventory out of sight from the cab
4. Efficiency: Creates a cleaner, more organized workspace in back

With our convenient online ordering process, you can choose the right Sprinter van partition for your build and have it delivered right to your door.

Sprinter Van Partition Fitment Notes

Not all partitions fit every Sprinter. A Sprinter van partition is typically designed around your van’s model year, wheelbase, and roof height (Standard/High Roof). Choosing the correct fitment helps ensure proper mounting, seat travel clearance, and door operation.

If you’re unsure what you need, start by confirming your Sprinter’s year, wheelbase, and roof height, then review fitment notes listed on the product page.

Types of Sprinter Van Partitions

Most Sprinter bulkheads come in a few common styles. Solid partitions maximize noise reduction and help improve heating and cooling efficiency. Window partitions maintain rear visibility, while mesh partitions provide airflow while still acting as a safety barrier. The best option depends on your trade, visibility preferences, and whether comfort or airflow is the priority.
