Hey guys, Kevin here with etrailer. And today I'm gonna be showing you how to install the etrailer Horizontal E-Track here on our enclosed trailer. So the installation of your E-Track is fairly simple. It's really just a lot of planning ahead of time, finding out where your studs are in your trailer making sure that you're making contact with those that way your E-Track is properly secured. The E-Track does come in a variety of sizes, today on ours we use the 94 inch and the four-foot track but you could obviously get a different size and if you need to even cut down some of it just like we had to today, that way you can make it properly fit what you need for your application. Start an insulation of the E-Track.

We're going to drop some lines so that when I place it up against the wall here I kinda know exactly where I need it. Our neighbor today wants it to be about six inches down from the trim here. So I'm just gonna go ahead and measure along our trim all the way down and just do a little notches, probably every foot or so that way we can make sure that we're staying level with our trailer, making it look nice. So, because this trim piece is already put up and kinda in the way from where our ere is gonna go, I'm gonna go ahead and just cut this one little section out that way we can have our E-Track lay exactly across the wall here. I'm just gonna take my multi-tool.

There we go. All right, now we have room for our E-Track to slide through. So now what I ended up doing is having to trim off just a little bit of our E-Track here so that it's not hitting up on our trim here in the corner. And that way I can line up my holes with my E-Track going on with our studs in the trailer here. So now I'm gonna go ahead and just shoot a screw into one of the studs just to kinda hold this end in place.

And I made sure I have it lined up with my marks that I made earlier. Okay, so actually, before I went ahead and started screwing in the other bolts into our studs for our first track here I wanted to make sure where this is gonna land that way I can make sure that this is gonna hit our stud, which I'm just gonna have to drill a self tapping screw right through our metal here and not use one of the factory holes. I do wanna say you don't need to be worried if you're going off of the regular holes in your E-Track or if you have to shoot it through the side, just as long as you're getting it into a stud that's what's important because that's what's actually gonna hold this to the wall. So now that I have my main bolts into our stud here I'm also going back by and just doing the ones next to it. These are only going into the woods, not really the driving force that was holding this to the wall but it just offers a little bit more help.

If you really wanted to go the extra mile you could go ahead and just hit every single hole too. So now that I have my self tapping screws in my E-Track and each spot that I need them in, I'm gonna go ahead and do the same thing up top where I trim out some of this trim here and here and then I'm gonna have to actually go a little bit lower than what our neighbor was wanting, just because their exterior light protrudes out onto our wall. Just a bit too much for the E-Track to sit flush with the wall. But we're gonna go ahead and do that, and then we're gonna go to the other side of our trailer and do the same thing. Now that we have both of our sides done, our neighbor is good to go. He can load up all the tanks that he needs to inside of this enclosed trailer and use the E-Tracks that we just installed to easily secure them in place. Well, I think that does it for our installation today of the etrailer Horizontal E-Track here on our enclosed trailer. My name's Kevin, thanks for watching..
