We bought a "coffee" trailer last month. 18 foot car hauler with electric in it. After watching your videos, we think we can probably do this ourselves! Everythings a learning experience!
I’ve been looking for new trailers and most places want 85k to 110k , I came across your videos and I’m going to do it myself, I have a few family members that are handy , my nephew is a welder , I’m sure with a little help I can get it done .

4:23 Is that a Tankless Water Heater? If so... What is the Name of it... (This is the first time watching your video. So Impressed.) I will start watching the other ones very soon. GREAT Job... Fantastic!! I have a Vintage Tiny Travel Trailer (50 Years old) So Cute... I want to convert into a TINY Food Trailer... Especially a Beef Jerky... It is very little so I have to do everything compact. I am so glad you used a Tankless Water Heater... Thank you Frank for sharing all of this great work... BEAUTIFUL,
Congratulations on your finished trailer! I became a subscriber when you were mid way. In 2018, 2019 we built ours in California. Your videos have inspired me to do a second one with a lot of new ideas you showed us. I would like to document my progress but it will probably be in my spanish channel. Again congratz! Cant wait to see your next project.
HELLO FRANK YOU REALLY DO GREAT WORK ! was wondering what size is that window do you have the style numer so i can order that item and also did you weld in a header for support or do you use wood after you cut out opening ? also where can i buy the metal for the walls interior .
Hard question to answer with one answer only. All depends on With what cooking equipment, did you want new or used,. But a rough answer fully loaded trailer 40k and up is what I have seen fully equipped
I've seen most of these videos and since starting my own trailer build, I've realized that Chicago is WAAAAYYYY easy on the regulations compared to Washington State. I gotta have a GFCI on any outlet within 6 feet of a sink counter or servicing a food prep counter. You got an unprotected outlet directly beneath your sink! I had to invest over $600 for a water heater that's rated to pass inspection AND it must installed with a pressure relief valve. I ended up doing my panel on the exterior because it can't be obstructed by anything under it or on the sides. Good job though, but it would never pass here.
Yes crazy how every county changes, some are even more lenient than us here, to make it a GFCI its pretty simple I could add a GFCI breaker to the panel or just swap out the outlet. The panel one that kinda stink putting it outside but they make them so thats good
@@fbaltierrez Putting it outside using water tight connects and conduit actually made it faster to install everything. They made me use 12/2 mc cable for all the interior circuits. It's also a requirement here to vent your plumbing with a 1 1/2 pipe through the roof.
I'm in Washington and I've been doing research on the L&I requirements and brooo, it discouraged me so quick! LMAO If you or you know anyone willing to help me put together a trailer, I would appreciate it. You're from WA, so how much do you think it would cost to put together a trailer if the food I'm making requires a 3 bay deep fryer, griddle, and fridge?
Hi bro I like all your video,I just wanna ask about window on the food trailer?it must be two window are aloud ?I have 36x53 and I have only one window on my trailer
Hi Frank I see u are r in dupage so am I I own sportys in bloomingdale. Your videos are great. Is there a chance we can talk about health dept and fire and any tips u can give me. Rocco
Frank buenos días una pregunta cómo cuánto gastaría en comprar todos los accesorios para armar una traila lonchera con las laminas inocsidables aproximadamente ya que los precios yo se que varían
Where did you get your stainless steel for your walls .... I just ordered our 2nd hood from hood mart and they sell stainless for cheap . 6ft and all pieces for less then 300 . its like 145 for a 4x8 sheet .
Ok thanks and you are doing a fantastic job 👏 building those food trailers and where can find those 20 gauge stainless steel sheets,I stay in Illinois too I'm close to st.Louis
Que buen trabajo!! Tengo una duda,compre un exhaust fan y trae el control conectado dentro del exhaust fan, como puedo conectarlo o necesito comprar otro control externo? Gracias!!
El control usualmente no viene en el abanico. Tienen como un switch pero es como un safety switch. O tal vez si lo tiene alli. Se lo puedes quitar o esta alli permanent?
@@fbaltierrez gracias por responder tan rapido! Si se puede quitar ,pero deblo cablear y solo prende directo,trate de conectar el control del mismo modo que tu lo explicas en tu video,pero no logro operarlo con el control(no puede encenderlo con el control ni subir o bajar las velocidades )mi exhaust fan lo compre en "VENTILATION DIRECT".
Take the colored wire and white wire one colored goes to the switch wire. The other cable gets run to the actual fan the other color goes to the other switch wire. The 2 whites get connected together and buried in the box by THEMSELVES nothing else connected to the whites
Really enjoying your videos. Quite impressive! I have a question Frank. What is the best way to know the regulations for every County? Is there a way to have a Food truck that can pass all kinds of regulations?
Unfortunately there is no one website that lists them all. BUT there are a lot of companies that all they do is build food trucks, so I would imagine they have a lot of knowledge on many states and counties regulations. Might be worth googling some of those companies and giving them a call. Otherwise your best bet is to manually search counties and states retail food codes that you think are very strict and building your food truck to those specs.
Mi familia y yo comenzamos este negocio con una old camper trailer 1969 estamos sólo con permiso temporal necesitamos arreglarla comercial y estos videos nos están espirando o hasta llevártela y tú me la arregles ☺️
On plumbing I have no idea I have never hired a plumber and don't know what they would charge for something like this. But let's say I did the electric for you hypothetically. I would charge like 1,500 something like that roughly
This is amazing! I want a cupcake trailer. I would prep in a kitchen and just distribute in the trailer. I'm thinking I would only need bakers carts, counter space, storage, cooling. Is it worth getting a trailer for this?
Well done! I seriously want to do this exactly like you did. Final cost I know you have talked about, but what would you charge a client if you made it to sell? Thanks for all of the hard work to share your wisdom and knowledge!
Hey Frank ! Awesome job and thanks for this series! I’m still building my truck and I k ow I should ask my local health board but I curious you have an idea if I’d need a hood and exhaust if everything is electric and only thing “ cooking” is a couple of waffle irons and a steam table for ingredients??
Hard question to answer. Don't know what you are cooking or maybe it will just be a ice cream truck. But the simplest of trucks no hood no gas. Just basic, materials maybe. 3-4k and higher depending on if you get a fridge
So I've watched all your videos (several times over) and yesterday I bought my 8.5 x 20 trailer. Wish me luck!
Update?
You got this.
All the best
Awesome!!! Congrats 🎉🍾🎈
Oh nice! I see you have some support in the comments. Very cool! Any questions let me know in the comments! Best of luck, excited for you
We bought a "coffee" trailer last month. 18 foot car hauler with electric in it. After watching your videos, we think we can probably do this ourselves! Everythings a learning experience!
You got this! Let me know how it goes. Hopefully you're up and running and if not let me know any questions in the comments!
I purchased a trailer back in April. You’ve motivated me to complete it myself, minus the plumbing and propane assembly.
Lol. You got this. Once you do it once it's a piece of cake lol
beautiful craftsmanship!
Appreciate that 💯
AWESOME walk thru very informative my cousnin just finished his truck and set to open soon !
Nice!!!!!! Love to hear that
Didn’t realize how recent these videos are/were! Thanks for making these!
Wow,I’m so happy to find you on RUclips. I’m thinking to build food truck for my own. Love all your videos. Thanks so much for sharing 🙏🙏🙏
Good morning. Appreciate the feedback 😁 thanks again
Really nice Frank
Thanks for the videos
Appreciate that feedback 😁
The L-bracket should be a latch for easy disconnect. Looks great!
Never seen them with a latch. I'll have to look
Hi... I'm from Philippines, thank you for your very informative videos 🙏🙂, hope u continue doing more nice videos
Yeah definitely do a more in depth electrical episode. Great job with the trailer!

Absolutely. Welding not needed at least in my experience just to make you a step outside. But 2 heads are better than 1
@@fbaltierrez hi Frank I watched this video very awesome work..
Looks great!!! Awesome work 👏🏼
Very good info sir. Thanks for your work.

Looks good. Need to run a accumulator on that pump though. The quick cycling will burn out the pump in no time. Thanks for posting.
What’s does that mean?
Accumulator is a pressure storage reservoir that utilitizes external mechanical energy from either the engine, raised weight or spring to move it around
Yo. This is lit! You've done an amazing job! I can't wait to build mine!
Love it!!!!!

You are the man, what a beautiful and well built truck. Question, where did you get the aluminum for the interior?
Stainless steel from a local metal shop to me Roco Steel
very good

Good afternoon. On my last video I answer the metal question, window 78x31 style 23x. Just used wood

That is the Propane Leak Detector?
Where does one buy that from?

Frank buenos días una pregunta cómo cuánto gastaría en comprar todos los accesorios para armar una traila lonchera con las laminas inocsidables aproximadamente ya que los precios yo se que varían
Yo use como 13k pero ahora puede ser mucho mas
Where are you located?
Before i start building. How much was everything out the door you building it? Just material
Where did you get your stainless steel for your walls .... I just ordered our 2nd hood from hood mart and they sell stainless for cheap . 6ft and all pieces for less then 300 . its like 145 for a 4x8 sheet .
I got mine from a local metal shop.
My first time buying it, it was $40 a sheet then it went to $65 then last time it was $100 for 4x10 sheet
I wonder if there is something we can spray onto the gas elbow on the exterior of the trailer to prevent the weather damage
I believe so. I didn't do it but did think about doing that
What is that hooked to the cold water line going to the water pump is that a water gauge and if it is,what type is it and the name
It's a pipe strainer comes with the pump
Ok thanks and you are doing a fantastic job 👏 building those food trailers and where can find those 20 gauge stainless steel sheets,I stay in Illinois too I'm close to st.Louis
And my wife and I are learning a lot from you we really appreciate you showing us how to build our own food trailer,thanks again.
Hi Frank I am thinking about making my little 79 Chinook RV into a food truck. I don't know where to begin...
Do you have to have the inspection done after each install, electrical, plumbing, propane.. or is it all inspected together at the end? Thanks!
That depends on your health department. Mine was at the end ,they didn't really ask how it was built and who built it.
@@fbaltierrez thank you!
Hola amigo estás en Chicago, cuánto sale una trails ya echa .
Depende de donde la compres y que equipo le pongas pero mas o menos yo diria que una te puediera costar de 40k para arriba
How much would it cost me to get it set up like this if I already have the 7x16 trailer
Will have a new video up today covering this exact question
Hello I am wondering should I buy an out door or indoor breaker box and can I use the yellow romex wire or not?
Frank yo vivo en El Paso ,,me gustaría hacer esto pero para rentarlas usted cree ke funcione ?
Posible, pero ay que tener buena aseguransa y deposito

I see a leak on those 3 comp faucet. You should use galvanized fittings for your outside propane lines.
What video is it that you show the custom metal step for the food trailer?
Hi mate, could send me a link from where you getting your floor fixing for secure benches please
Good morning, Just updated the description with a link to that Flanged feet
How do you wire the exhaust fan to the breaker
Take the colored wire and white wire one colored goes to the switch wire. The other cable gets run to the actual fan the other color goes to the other switch wire. The 2 whites get connected together and buried in the box by THEMSELVES nothing else connected to the whites

good but you need to add a exhaust for that water heater
No for this one. Its vent free. 👍👍

Not counting trailer about 18-20k could easily go over
How much you spend?
Back in these days it was in the 15k-20k area Definitely higher now
Your work is beautiful, how does it cost.
Depends on how much you get your materials for. Like wall covering and such. But no labor included without cooking equipment. About 10-15k
La pregunta del millón, en cuanto lo vendes ? Me interesa una
No tengo precio todavia. En los 20s va a estar

Do you need stainless on the walls
What are the blue flanges for the wheels? It's not in the description. You have put 2 different flanges, but both are the same link.
How much does a setup like this cost?
Well done! I seriously want to do this exactly like you did. Final cost I know you have talked about, but what would you charge a client if you made it to sell? Thanks for all of the hard work to share your wisdom and knowledge!
Tough question to answer because I have never made these to make for customers so wouldn't have a correct answer for you.
Hood mart, where one finds all the OG’s.
Frank, can you do the wall insulation for the food truck, with those panels? If so, can we hire you?
How many weeks does it takes to build your foodtruck
If you are doing it full time every day. Easy can be done in 4 weeks even less. As long as you have the parts available
How can I install a tv on a trailer to where it’s in the wall with plexiglass on the outside
I have a question how do I go about getting a license plate on the trailer once I build it I’m
Building mines completely from nothing
I just went to DMV place with my title and registered it and received plates
3:05 how long before those brackets loosen?
They at times are questionable, transitioned to using the task adjustable bars now. Life savers
Isnt that drain outside way to small?
Not at all. Works perfectly
