About Us

Based in Dundee, Robert Lawson & Sons is a long-established auto-electrical and specialist vehicle conversion company, proudly serving customers since 1985. With more than three decades of industry experience, our highly skilled and professional team delivers tailored conversion solutions for emergency services, government departments, and other mission-critical sectors.

Our commitment to quality, innovation, and dependable service has positioned us as a trusted partner for organisations that rely on safe, efficient, and fully integrated specialist vehicles.

Company History

Established in 1985, Robert Lawson & Sons has grown from a one-man mobile auto-electrical service into a leading UK provider of specialist vehicle conversions. What began with Robert Lawson supporting local fleets and resolving electrical faults in the field has evolved into a company recognised for quality, reliability, and advanced technical expertise.

As demand for our services increased, the business expanded from a mobile operation to dedicated workshops across Fairfield Road, Old Glamis Road, and Dunsinane Avenue—each move enabling greater capacity, enhanced capability, and continued investment in skilled personnel and cutting-edge technology.

Our commitment to excellence has led to long-standing partnerships with key emergency service organisations. Since 2001, we have proudly supported Scottish Ambulance Service, Scottish Fire & Rescue Service, and Police Scotland. Our reputation across the UK has also established strong working relationships with Northumbria Police, Durham Constabulary, and Humberside Police, reinforcing our role as a trusted supplier of mission-critical vehicle solutions.

In addition, Robert Lawson & Sons is proud to work in partnership with leading OEM manufacturers, including the Stellantis Group—representing both Peugeot and Vauxhall. These partnerships ensure our conversions meet the highest standards of compatibility, performance, and safety, delivering seamless integration with manufacturer platforms.

Today, operating from our modern facility on Kilspindie Road, Robert Lawson & Sons stands at the forefront of emergency service vehicle conversions. From rapid response ambulances to fully equipped police cell vans, we deliver dependable, high-performance solutions designed to support frontline teams in operating safely, efficiently, and effectively.
