Helpful Expert Reply:
If the trailer has brake mounting flanges like yours does you can add brakes relatively easy. It will be a matter of removing your idler hubs, installing assemblies to the flanges, installing hub/drums instead of the idler hubs, and then running the brake output circuit from them up to the front of the trailer. We definitely can help you out but I'll need more info about your trailer to determine what exact parts you'd need. I attached a help article that covers everything you'll need to know to pick out what you'll need.
Or if you can get me your axle capacity and wheel bolt pattern I'd know from that what you'd need.
