Locking Cover for Top Of 5' x 8' Custom Trailer

Updated 12/01/2020 | Published 11/27/2020

Question:

I have a 5 foot by 8 foot long utility trailer with 4 ft sides on it. I am looking to put a fold up cover thats lockable on the trailer. something like a tonal cover that would directly attach to the trailer so when I need it covered its there or I can roll it back to have more room when needed. I can build the sides as needed for the cover I just want to know what sizes they come in and if its possible.

The good solution would be the Pace Edwards # 311-SWFA07A30 "Switchblade" retractable hard tonneau cover. This specific cover is designed for a Ford F-150 truck with an 8-foot bed. Since this system has it's own track you will only need to build a support rail around the top of your trailer walls. This unit is constructed from aluminum and vinyl. I have attached a link to this product and a review video.
