"You won't find a better trailer for less!"
PAD Series
tiny home trailer foundations
8'-6" & 10' Wide
Since 2006, thousands of tiny houses have been built on our PAD Series tiny house trailers. It's a time tested design that we developed from the ground up solely as a tiny house foundation. Our trailers are loaded with important features allowing you maximum flexibility in designing and building your tiny house.
You can't go wrong building your house on our PAD Series tiny house trailer.
Standard Features
Maximum Standard Width
We've optimized our standard frame width to maximum towable limit, ensuring you can travel without special trip permits. Our standard frame extensions measure 100 inches wide allowing 1 inch of siding and trim to stay within the highway limit of 102 inches. A little extra room goes a long way in creating comfortable living space
10 Ft wide frames are also available. An overwidth trip permit would be required for towing.
Recessed Crossmembers
The innovative design of our frame accommodates full 2x6 lumber floor joists and up to six inches of insulation for maximum thermal efficiency.
Supporting your subfloor with lumber also eliminates the problems associated with the thermal bridging effect of steel.
Rim Joist Anchor Holes
5/8 inch diameter anchor holes located about every 24 inches along the main frame to permanently attach your rim joist. Then use joist hangers to attach floor joists to the rim joist for an easy and very solid floor structure.
Perimeter Flanges
Perimeter flange on all sides of the trailer, engineered to support your walls and roof. We pre-drill all the holes around the entire perimeter to easily and securely anchor the bottom plates of your walls.
All LED Lighting
LED lights are the only lights we use. They require less power and are brighter than incandescent lights. They're completely sealed and impervious to water and corrosion. And most importantly, they always work when you need them.
Axle Placement
A significant reason to buy a dedicated tiny house trailer (whether it's an Iron Eagle or some other brand) is proper axle position. We've positioned the axles of our tiny house trailer for optimal balance and towing characteristics. Tiny houses typically have a unique center of gravity and can pose balance and stability challenges when built on a trailer that's deigned to transport vehicles or equipment.
Available Options
Leveling Jacks
A set of four removable leveling jacks that are attached under the frame at each corner.
Fender Flashing
Fender flashing is a weather barrier that stops water from migrating across the top of the wheel fenders and into your house.
Galvanized
Bottom Pan
You can either install your own plywood or metal sheeting to support your floor insulation or opt our durable 22 gauge galvanized steel bottom pan. We seal the perimeter and seams, to create a weatherproof, bug-proof and rodent-proof barrier. Choose the solution that best fits your needs!
Front Bumpout
Enhance your space with our versatile front bumpout options, available in both rectangular or tapered. This feature creates additional interior room, perfect for adding a closet, bookshelf, sink, etc.
