Made for Load Control & Compliance

Towing without electric brakes isn’t just risky—it’s illegal once your trailer hits a certain weight. Professionally installed brake controllers help you stay compliant while giving you full confidence under pressure. They’re reliable, discreet, and tailored to your setup.


  • Smooth Braking Response: Electric brakes reduce the strain on your vehicle’s own brakes by spreading the braking force to your trailer.
  • Legal Towing Compliance: In Australia, trailers over 750kg (laden) require electric brakes—our systems help keep you road legal.
  • Dash-Mounted Controllers: We fit easy-to-use control units in convenient positions so you can adjust braking force on the go.
  • Compatible Systems: Our electric brakes work with most common trailer types, including caravans, tradie trailers, horse floats, and campers.


Whether you tow every day or only now and then, having the right brake setup can make all the difference to your safety and control.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I need electric brakes for my trailer?

    In Australia, any trailer or caravan with a gross weight over 750kg must have a braking system. Electric brakes are the most common and reliable choice. If you’re towing a trailer without brakes that exceeds the legal limit, you risk fines and unsafe driving conditions.

  • How do electric brake controllers work?

    Electric brake controllers are connected to your vehicle’s braking system. When you apply your car’s brakes, the controller sends a signal to the trailer brakes, activating them in sync. Many units allow manual adjustment of braking intensity for different loads or road conditions.

  • Are electric brake systems hard to use?

    Not at all. Once installed, the system is easy to control from a small dash-mounted unit. You can adjust the brake force depending on road conditions or trailer weight, and the system activates automatically when you apply your car’s brakes.
