At Upfit Supply, we know that staying organized in your work van isn’t just about shelves and drawers—it’s about securely storing every piece of equipment, including refrigerant tanks. That’s why we’re taking a closer look at Unboxing Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder, a heavy-duty rack built to safely hold your refrigerant tanks in place while you’re on the move.

This blog covers everything you need to know about the Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder, from unboxing to features, measurements, and installation components. Whether you’re an HVAC tech, refrigeration contractor, or mobile technician, this product offers the organization and safety you need inside your cargo van or trailer.

What’s Inside the Box | Unboxing Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder

The Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder (part number 40102) ships mostly pre-assembled, which makes the unboxing process quick and straightforward. Here’s what you’ll find in the box:

  • Pre-assembled 3-tier steel tank holder in Holman’s signature powder-coated gray finish
  • Mounting brackets (2 angled, 2 straight)
  • Mounting hardware (plus nuts, spacers, washers, bolts, and lock nuts)
  • Pre-installed tank retention straps
  • Installation guide and warranty card
  • Quality control checklist stamped at the top of the parts list

Everything you need to securely install the tank rack is included in one convenient package—no need to shop for extras.

Built for Durability and Convenience

We appreciate products that strike the right balance between strength and ease of use. The Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder is designed with those two goals in mind.

  • Fully welded steel frame with a durable powder-coated finish
  • Three individual tiers, each equipped with adjustable nylon retention straps
  • Pre-drilled mounting plates on both the side and bottom for flexible installation
  • Quick setup thanks to its mostly pre-assembled design

Holman has clearly thought through the practical needs of professionals working in the field. That’s why they’ve made sure the product is both tough and easy to work with.

Dimensions and Tank Compatibility

One of the most common questions we receive about this product is: Will it fit my tanks? To help answer that, we took detailed measurements.

Overall Dimensions:

  • Width: 13 3/8 inches
  • Depth: 12 5/8 inches
  • Height between tiers:
    • Bottom tier: ~13 1/4 inches
    • Middle tier: ~13 inches
    • Top tier: ~14 1/4 inches

This configuration works well for standard refrigerant tanks. The open circular frames support tanks while allowing easy strapping and removal. The top tier’s extra clearance is especially helpful for slightly larger or specialty tanks.

Hardware and Mounting Options

You’ll find a robust set of hardware included with the Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder, making installation flexible for a wide range of van layouts and surfaces.

Included Hardware:

  • Plus nuts for securing the rack into existing or new holes in your van
  • Spacers to level out mounting points on uneven flooring
  • Lock nuts and washers for added durability
  • Steel mounting brackets for either wall or shelf attachment

We like that Holman includes multiple bracket types, giving you options to mount vertically or to the floor. Whether you want to secure it to the side of a shelving unit or bolt it to the van floor, you’ll have everything you need.

Key Features That Set It Apart

Here’s a breakdown of what we think makes this product stand out in a crowded market of van storage solutions.

1. Pre-Assembled Construction

Straight out of the box, the Holman 3-Tier Tank Holder is nearly ready to go. That means less time spent assembling parts and more time finishing your build.

2. Adjustable Tank Straps

Each of the three tiers comes with a pre-installed strap to secure your tank. These are adjustable to accommodate various tank sizes and keep everything in place—even on bumpy roads.

3. Compact Footprint

At just over 13 inches wide and 12 inches deep, this rack fits well in tight cargo spaces. You can install it beside shelves or toolboxes without sacrificing aisle space.

4. Multiple Mounting Points

Pre-drilled holes on the bottom and side plates offer flexible options for bolting the rack down securely. This makes it easy to install in vans, trailers, or even stationary workspaces.

5. Holman’s 3-Year Warranty

As with all Holman products, this rack comes backed by a 3-year manufacturer warranty—but only when purchased from an authorized reseller like Upfit Supply.

Installation Overview

Although this rack arrives mostly assembled, installing it still requires a few steps:

  1. Position the rack where you’d like to mount it (wall or floor).
  2. Mark and drill pilot holes using the pre-drilled mounting template.
  3. Install plus nuts if needed for extra strength.
  4. Secure the rack using included bolts, washers, and lock nuts.
  5. Tighten and test to ensure a snug fit.
  6. Place your tanks on each tier and adjust the retention straps to hold them securely.

The process is simple, especially if you’ve installed shelving or racking before.
