Why Legend Rear Grab Handles Are a Must-Have
Let’s face it—getting in and out of a cargo van can be tricky, especially when conditions are slick or your hands are full. That’s where the Legend Rear Grab Handles for GMC Savana & Chevy Express shine. Designed with safety and durability in mind, these handles make every step in and out feel stable and controlled.
Here’s what makes them stand out:
- High-visibility yellow finish—easy to spot, even in low light
- Textured surface—adds grip and reduces slip
- Durable steel construction—built to last under heavy use
- Sold as a complete kit—includes two handles and all mounting hardware
Designed for a Better Grip, Every Time
When you’re climbing in or out of the rear of your van, you don’t want to second-guess your footing. That’s why we love the SecureGrip™ design. The textured powder-coated finish offers a non-slip hold, even in wet or dusty conditions. That means more control, less risk, and added confidence on the job.
Installation Made Simple with Included Hardware
We’ve installed these ourselves and can confirm—the process is straightforward. The kit includes everything you need:
Installation Process:
- Identify a solid mounting location near the rear doors
- Drill holes if necessary (or expand factory holes)
- Insert the included PlusNuts for secure anchoring
- Attach the handles using the provided bolts and washers
- Torque to spec and test for sturdiness
Because you’re mounting to interior steel, using PlusNuts creates a reliable, no-slip connection that holds up over time.
Vehicle Compatibility and Placement Options for Legend Rear Grab Handles
The Legend Rear Grab Handles for GMC Savana & Chevy Express are purpose-built for these GM vans, but the universal mounting style means they can work in other applications with similar rear door layouts.
You can mount them vertically on the rear pillars, or adjust placement based on your team’s reach and entry angles. Regardless of the location, they’ll provide a solid, dependable handhold exactly where you need it.
High-Visibility Design for Added Safety
One of our favorite features is the bright yellow finish. Not only does it add a professional, industrial look, but it also enhances visibility. It’s easy to locate in the dark, and you’re far less likely to bump into it accidentally.
This kind of simple visual contrast helps prevent injuries—something we value in any commercial van setup.
Built to Withstand the Job
Because these grab handles are part of Legend Fleet’s SecureGrip line, they’re engineered with durability in mind. You’re not just getting something functional; you’re getting a product made to last.
From freezing Midwest winters to hot, dusty job sites, these grab handles hold up. The powder-coated steel resists corrosion, scratches, and wear.
Why Legend Rear Grab Handles Belong in Every Work Van
If you’re outfitting your cargo van for serious work, it’s often the small upgrades that have the biggest impact. The Legend Rear Grab Handles for GMC Savana & Chevy Express improve safety, increase ease of access, and reduce the chance of slips or falls.
Pair them with other entryway upgrades—like step plates or motion-sensor lights—and your rear cargo zone becomes safer and more functional for every crew member.
Final Thoughts
The Legend Rear Grab Handles for GMC Savana & Chevy Express are a fast, affordable, and impactful addition to any commercial van. Whether you’re a contractor, delivery driver, or fleet manager, these handles bring everyday function and long-term value.
