Trailer Generator slide out tray

SST159 · 04-30-2019, 09:47 AM

Any suggestions where I can get a generator slide out tray that will hold 200 lbs?

I got the brackets at Home Depot and then put a very thick piece of wood across holds my Honda 3000 fine

Hey Keith,
Do the brackets slide?
what department did you find them in?

Home Depot has some heavy duty slides that are usually in the Hardware Section. Basically just heavy drawer slides. Inside of the display drawer they will have the weight rating for each one.

I think the brand is everbilt

Here are the ones I got. Mounted them on a piece of aluminum angle. For the tray use aluminum angle for the perimeter with aluminum treadplate riveted to it for the floor.

Yes basically what he said
very heavy duty works fine. I like his idea of how to finish it mine looks factory I covered it in carpet I would take a picture of it but I left the trailer at Atco

Used the same brackets for a BBQ grill that stowed away in basement of motorhome. Pulled it out and cooked. Held up fine for having a regular size grill on it

I had a generator slide out made by Fast Farms Trailer Sales in Florida
He will need the dimensions of your generator and how far you want it to slide out. His # 561-968-3757
Good quality workmanship.

Vintage trailers sells one that is excellent,I have it in my Outlaw and two other racers have bought one after seeing mine, sells for around $200.

I made slide outs for both of my trailers. Bought the slides from McMaster-Carr.
