Note: This rack system is not designed to be welded to your trailer.
Installation
This sturdy steel rack mounts securely to the side rail of your open utility trailer. Just set the posts on your side rail at the desired mounting location, ensuring that they are approximately 3' apart. Then drill 4 mounting holes and attach the pre-drilled posts with (4) 3/8" grade-8 bolts (not included).
Install the posts with the trimmer cradles facing outside of the trailer for easy access to your trimmers. This configuration also leaves the bed of your trailer open for lawn mowers or other landscaping equipment.
Mounting Trimmer
The rack includes a padlock to secure your trimmer. Just slide the trimmer into the hooks, close the steel hasp on the hook closest to the trimmer handle, and lock it with the padlock.

Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the Pack'Em Trimmer Rack for open utility trailers, part number PK-6S. It's also expandable to hold the second trimmer, using part number PK-6S2 or as a two trimmer rack with part number PK-6S-6S2. This study solid steel trimmer rack will mount directly to your trailer using the pre-drilled holes on each of the bases. It mounts on the rail of your trailer freeing up space inside your trailer for things such as mowers, leaf blowers and other tools. A padlock with two keys are included, so that way your trimmer is going to be safe while out on the job or if you leave it out overnight. The non-abrasive sheeting is going to protect your trimmer from scratches and help keep it from sliding around.The front latch is also padded to help protect your trimmer and keep it from moving around and causing scratches.
It has a rust resistant gray powder coat finish with a hammered pattern for that nice look. It's easy to install. You simply drill out holes where the existing pre-drilled holes are on each mount. And you need to space them about three feet apart. Hardware's not included in this package due the variances in trailers and which here we're using 5/16th bolts although it'll accommodate up to 3/8 bolts for that extra rigidness.
It's easy to load. You just angle the back, lower the front down, push the clamp in and lock her down secure.We've talked about the Pack'Em Trimmer Rack. We've brought in our product expert, Mike here to give us some more information. Mike: Well, this is a .. This trimmer rack is actually a really great product for anybody who has an open utility trailer, landscapers, somebody who's not a landscaper but wants a little more versatility out of their trailer.
And what are some of the pros and cons that we have with this system Mike: Well, this is a low-cost unit and it's still really well made. It's also expandable. If you have more than one trimmer, you can put it on there. A couple of things to look out for, it doesn't come with hardware and the reason for that is you don't know what you're going to be putting it on, so they don't include hardware for every contingency. Another thing, this lock's actually a great feature, but this trimmer you see is straight, if it was a curved one, it may hit the fender here, so it's not going to work with everything.
So what are some of the solutions when your trimmer is curved and it contacts your trailer Mike: Well, if you have a curved trimmer, you can get the add-on for this and carry it up a little higher so that it doesn't hit the fender. So you can still . should have room for the straight one. Speaker 1: All right, Mike. Thanks for coming out here and sharing some extra info with us. Mike: Yep. No problem. Speaker 1: And that competes our look at the Pack'Em Trimmer Rack for open utility trailers.

Convenient rack lets you carry 2 trimmers safely and securely on your open utility trailer. Mounts outside of trailer leaving space for other gear in the tailer bed. Pre-drilled posts easily attach to either side rail. Includes padlock and keys.I'm writing to you, to show you how I installed the PK-6S-6S2 Trimmer Rack too my trailer with wood sides. I used 2 ½" x 2 ½" aluminum angle. The angle is attached to the wood with ½" stainless steel bolts and nuts. The trimmer rack was attached to the angle with the required bolts that was indicated in the instruction. To stiffen the vertical arm, due to the trimmer rack being mounted to angle, I cut and installed a wood blocks into each vertical channel, used the predrilled holes to secure the blocks to the channel, and then from the inside of the trailer, I inserted a wood screw through the side wall into the wood block. The PK-6 S-6S2 is well built , easy to assemble and I looking forward to spring so I can use it. See attached photos. I give it five (5) stars.
I wish it had a support at the top of the rack to make it a little more stable between the two racks.

I love the rack but when traveling with 2 trimmers, the racks themselves seem to be very wobblily. Wish the rack has a cross member to make the top part of the rack more stable.
Just what I needed for my trimmers. Easy assembly, nice paint finish and installation was a breeze. Prompt shipping, and always a follow-up email. Will continue to buy from E-Trailer. (4 stars because of the locks)
I bought the trimmer racks for a utility trailer for my lawn care company. The racks are sturdy, easy to put on drill holes, screw a few bolts with washers, took about 40 minutes from start to stop with 2 racks and 2 extensions. Saves a lot of room in the back of the truck as I also got the extension, so I can use for 2 trimmers. Going to purchase another set for the other trailer. These are a test run to see how well they preform so I do not waste cash for something that does not work. These work GREAT, easy to put the trimmer on and off.
Fit snug on the trailer bed and equipment is held securely in place.
