I'm looking for cabinets and a workbench to put in my trailer. I would like them to be somewhat light weight and have latches on them so they won't pop open during transport, Does anyone know of any places that sell them?

I have an oil cabinet from Blazin' Bell Tech.  Wonderful people to work with (I think we even got a Christmas card) and product is excellent quality.

Dave, Rubbermaid makes some stuff too.  I think that stuff is available at Sears or Home Depot, etc.  Plastic...lightweight.  Should have something for a lock on the outside so that it can be latched shut during transport.

And they are inexpensive...I know you have a small budget like me, so that's my recommendation.

Thanks for the replys. Any suggestions on flooring? I hate to see tile peel up. I'm looking for something cheap and durable. Diamond plate is way too expensive (about $1000). A friend suggested spray on bedliner, but that seems way too permanent. I have a lot of soaked in spills so I would probably have to replace it for the tile to stick. thanks for your help guys.

If we did it over again we would probably go with a good quality floor paint.

We put down the cheapest vinyl flooring home depot had.  It lasted well for a season, now it's pretty ragged.  I'm thinking about a floor paint to replace it after I finally get around to ripping up the vinyl.

I put down roll-in bed liner.  It works very nice because it resists chemicals, has good traction, etc.  However, if you  transport dirt bikes as well (like I do), it is very difficult to sweep out due to the texture of the floor surface.   :-/

We (I) put six coats of urethane on the floor of our trailer.  Eventually, we'll put in indoor/outdoor carpeting.  It's never slippery, can be swept readily and taken out to air when necessary.

And when it gets too nasty, it's cheap enough to replace!
CCS AM 815... or was that 158?

Yeah, vinyl blows.

If I were ordering a new trailer, I'd get it with Line-X (bedliner stuff) in a heart beat.  

Paint is reliable.

Oil-based floor paint with a couple pounds of sand mixed in (for nonslip surface).  After one season seems to be holding up pretty well.  Was painless to apply, but cleaning up oil-based paint is messy.  Would do it again, tho, as it seems pretty tuff.

We just re did the flooring in our trailer, including the wood...

We used 14" tiles, and I think I woudl have used sheet instead.

The BEST quote I got was $1400 to do a spay in floor line, which was way more than it is worth...

Maybe next will be a roll on liner or diamond plate.


Super Dave

Did tiles in mine...they fell off once they got a little damp.

Bed liner is the best, but get it done at build time.

Did aluminum tread plate in a trade of racing fuel for the aluminum.  Looks nice, but I don't think it's the answer.

Everything sucks. ;D

If the tile was peeling up, what kind of adhesive did ya use? My friends 24' trailer's tiles still are flat after 8 yrs.
