Let the Light In: Aluminum Trailer Window & Door Options From ALCOM

Getting ready for adventure with an enclosed aluminum trailer from ALCOM puts you in a great position: your trailer is rust-resistant and lighter than similar models built from steel; it’s designed for long-lasting performance and manufactured in the USA. Plus, when you order your all-aluminum enclosed trailer from your local ALCOM dealer, you can customize it to your exact needs and specifications.

Our distributed manufacturing sites supply our extensive North American dealer network across the continental United States and Canada with the trailers customers need, when and where those trailers are needed. They're ready to customize your trailer when you place an order through your local ALCOM dealer. 

Some of our most popular and functional customizations include our wide selection of windows, doors, vents and compartments. Each trailer comes with a standard set of doors and vents, which may vary by trailer model and size. For example, a 4'x6' enclosed aluminum cargo trailer doesn't have a side access door, but a 6'x10' or larger does, and you can generally choose the door size and other details. That's not all; there are a long list of window, vent, and door options available from ALCOM. Keep reading to learn more. 

Enclosed Cargo Trailer Window Options

Add windows to your enclosed aluminum cargo trailer or car hauler! Windows aren’t only for livestock trailers; they’re available for most of our enclosed models, and if you’re building a DIY enclosed aluminum trailer camper conversion, they’re an essential part of your build. For other businesses, like food trucks or mobile pet spas, windows and sidewall openings are important, too. Choose a concession door and windows to suit your business or recreational plans, and don't forget to pick your favorite aluminum side panel color. No matter which windows and doors you select, your side panels are always built with our screwless, bump-free, smooth construction that allows you to smoothly, easily add branding and decals. 

Explore vent and window options for your trailer, including:

  • An 18"x24" horizontal or vertical radius sliding window with screen.

  • A 24"x36" radius sliding window with screen or a 24"x36" tinted sliding egress window with screen.

  • Concession doors are available in 4'x4', 4'x6' and 4'x8'.

  • A 14"x14" manual roof vent, a 12V power roof vent or 110V power roof vent (30 amp power package required).

  • A Dometic 22-0462 Fantastic Fan (30 amp power package required).

  • A Maxx-Air roof vent cover.

  • A directional Salem vent kit including a pair of plastic vents.

  • A two-way directional Salem vent kit including a pair of aluminum vents.

Enclosed Cargo Trailer Door Options

Most enclosed aluminum trailers ALCOM builds include either a rear spring-assisted ramp door or double barn doors, although the smallest enclosed cargo haulers have one swinging barn door.
