Equipment & modifications

Trailer Equipment & Custom Modifications

We equip and modify trailers around how they are actually used — from a single accessory installation to more extensive electrical, structural, floor and specialised work.

A trailer built around the way you use it

A standard trailer doesn't always meet the user's real needs as-is. With the right equipment and modifications, the same trailer can be made safer, more practical and better suited to what it is actually used for.

We install trailer accessories, build lighting and electrical solutions, carry out structural modifications and design fully customer-specific solutions. The work can be a single small installation or a larger scope where the trailer's structure and functionality are rethought.

You can also get in touch when you know what the trailer needs to be able to do, but you're not yet sure how to make it happen technically. We'll go through the requirement with you and find a workable way to deliver it.

Service areas

What we can build

The solution is always designed around the trailer's structure and intended use — from a small installation to a more extensive modification.

A

Lighting and electrical upgrades

LED lights, work and interior lighting, marker lights, wiring looms, plugs, connectors and wiring — plus other electrical and lighting solutions that make the trailer easier to use.

B

Toolboxes and storage solutions

Toolboxes, storage compartments, shelving, enclosures and other solutions that keep tools and supplies with the trailer, protected and easy to access.

C

Ramps and loading solutions

Ramps, loading bridges, loading support solutions and other modifications that make loading machines, vehicles or goods smoother and safer.

D

Lashing and load management

Lashing points, rails, supports and customer-specific fixing solutions so the cargo can be placed and secured properly.

Support legs and usability upgrades

Support legs, jockey wheels, handles, locks, protectors and other accessories that improve how the trailer is used and handled.

F

Hatches, doors and cover solutions

New hatches, doors, openings, locks, changes to canvas covers and other structures the trailer's use case requires.

G

Floor and structural modifications

Floor replacements, frame repairs, reinforcements, partitions and other more extensive structural work — always assessed per trailer.

H

Customer-specific bespoke solutions

Not every need fits a ready-made catalogue. We also design and build individual solutions for business, transport, event and professional use.

From need to solution

You don't have to plan everything yourself

Many projects start from a practical need: the trailer needs better lighting, more storage, an easier way to load, or a completely different structure. You don't need to arrive with finished drawings. It's enough to tell us what the trailer needs to be able to do.

  • Tools and supplies need to travel safely with the trailer.
  • The trailer needs an easier way to load a machine.
  • The current lighting isn't enough for working.
  • The interior needs to be divided for different uses.
  • An off-the-shelf accessory doesn't fit the trailer.
  • The trailer should be rebuilt for a completely new use.

We assess the options and suggest a way to deliver what actually fits the purpose.

Benefits

Why equip a trailer around its actual use?

01

Smoother working

Well-placed equipment, storage and use-supporting structures save time every single time the trailer is used.

02

Safer use

Load securing, lighting, loading and how well the structures work all directly affect the safe use of the trailer.

03

Better practicality

The trailer doesn't have to be a compromise. Modifications can solve exactly the problems that come up in everyday use.

04

Longer service life

Repairing damaged or unsuitable structures in time can prevent smaller issues from turning into larger ones.
