i want to do this and start a business so bad and you've made it seem obtainable. thank you, frank
You got this!!!
Loved the video.i build food trucks/trailers on Long Island NY. Harbour freight sells electric sheers that cuts the stainless steel sheets like butter for around $60.
Nice!!!!! Will have to definitely go and get a set. Thanks for the tip
Use a fabric steamer to remove the plastic covering. Slowly peel the plastic covering as you heat it up with the steamer. Start in a corner and It will all come off in one piece under 10 minutes.
Thanks Frank, I just purchase my Truck (empty) and you are helping me tremendously
Thank you for this valuable information my husband and i are trying to build a meals on wheel food truck to feed the homeless and needed families here in jax fla right now we just have a 6x12 trailers i know God will make away for us to get it up and running
Love that idea!!! Glad I could help
Para que quites el plástico con facilidad del stainless usa una secadora de pelo o un vaporizador,saludos gracias por los videos
Since you are working by yourself, I can really recommend a Bosch Laser Level with Tri-pod from Lowes. I used it to tile my Subway tile bathroom and you don't have to mess around holding a Level. It is a big Time Saver.
👍👍👍👍 thank you for the tip
Love your ethic and techniques learned a lot just by tuning in to this one video! Getting ready to build a concession trailer myself using a 1976 Holiday Ramblette camper! Converting it over within the next few weeks! Good stuff
1 year later 😳 hopefully your camper is fully built now and making $$$$
Thanks
Absolutely my pleasure
Love the videos, only issue is: Definition of truck: motor vehicle used for transporting goods or materials.
Definition of a trailer :unpowered vehicle towed by another vehicle. This is a good series of how to build a food trailer. Trucks have a different framework
Definitely agree. That's why I have stuck with trailers much easier for me to build
Just dropped a VIDEO of me making my food trailer it will be ready very soon. Thanks for the info.
Nice!!!!!
What's the trailers name
@@fbaltierrez i dont want to put it out there yet but i will let you know as soon as i drop it on TH-cam. And thank you for some of your tips.
Really nice job thanks
Appreciate it
Saludes desde vellingham washintogn amigo Exelente video ese es mi sueño aser una cosina con mis propias manos
There we go!!!! Si se puede
Save money on cutting wheels and get you a plasma cutter cut 50 with a straight edge works great on stainless
Nice!!!! Thanks for that tip
They make rubber inserts for wire or plastic conn.
very usefull
Loved this 🎉
Appreciate that feedback 💯💯💯
Donde comprastes el stainless steel que pones en la esquina
Amazon. Los links estan en El video description
Do you think i could glue the stainless to plywood instead if using the self tapping screws?
What did you add a round the window is called M caps or N caps ? We really couldn’t see you how you installed it
Around the window nothing that I recall. Just dividers in between the panels and end cap trim
Tiene algun vídeo de que tipo de inside Moulding puedo usar?
What if you use a hair dryer to pel film protection
do you have a video on how to install the plywood?
@mrwilliams3374 unfortunately no, all the trailers I bought have plywood already installed from factory
Para las esquinas de adentro porfavor gracias
Can you please out the link for the stainless steel transition pieces please dont want to order the incorrect ones! Thanks again frank
They are the ones in the description
Amigo donde me recomienda comprar las planchas de stainless steel?
@@albertogalvez9510 yo las encontre en metal supermarkets
Hey Frank! Your series is awesome man. It's helped me so much. When you connected the stainless steel sheets up in the front of the trailer by the sink did you use 90 degree stainless steel connection pieces? Or did you just use the stainless steel end caps from Amazon? Thanks
No didn't use a 90 degree connection just made my own angle when I connected them both. Yes the caps and dividers
Hey Frank your videos are great, i recently purchased a 30ft school bus im turning into a food truck, i have 20’ length by 7’ width. My question, is it necessary to put the plywood behind the stainless steel? Can i just do studs?
No because the Stainless will be too flimsy in between studs needs a backing
Hola gracias por responder las preguntas y ademas bien pronto.. tengo otra pregunta donde puedo ordenar las ventanas me dijeron que puede uno ponet ventanas de las que se usan para casas es sierto eso? Saludos y gracias de antemano desde ut.
De que puedes puedes, de que lo permitan es otra Cosa. Depende de tu health department, yo mejor gastaria un poquito orita y poner una de JR Aluminum
@@fbaltierrez y donde las ordenas tu o donde las puedo ordenar
@@TommyBoy23 JR ALUMINUM
Love what you are doing....would I need permits to built my own food truck....I'm from Houston
Depends on the county on the mobile vendor requirements google that up bc Some counties do require it.
Well, I got my trailer yesterday. Thank you for all your videos. You’ve got me hooked on wanting to do a trailer. Question, why stainless instead of the FRP boards? Is the stainless easier to work then the FRP? Thank you
Stainless is a bit harder and heavier to work with however I feel as it will last longer and more durable
One question, can the stainless steel ones be installed vertically and horizontally or only vertically?
Either way works.
Thanks
frank muy buen trabajo en tus videos ,enpese a construir mi primer trailer build,todo va muy bien gracias a tus videos,ya enpesare a poner mi stainles steel,,,pregunta.. el hood ke usas de hood mart, ya viene con el ANGULO de la parte de atras o se lo tienes ke mandar aser ?? gracias por tu ayuda !!
Tienes que mandar hacerlo asi. Pero no cobran extra
muchas gracias frank y felicitacion en tus videos son de muy gran ayuda !!
Where did you buy the 4x10 stainless steel sheets for $100
Buenos vídeos !!
Que gauge recomiendas para las paredes? Para el stainless steel?
20-22 gauge
What’s up Frank? Hope things are going well. I’m in the process getting my food truck going. Starting from scratch really, small hollow Chevy p20 stepvan. Just getting it mechanically sound 1st. I was wondering if you can please tell me something. What made you wrap the whole inside of the trailer with stainless steel? I want to install stainless just on the cooking side and then put the white panels used in restaurant kitchens for the rest of the the inside. Is it just preference or is just more effective/ efficient for cleaning? I want to save because money is limited. Thank you for the great videos, they will be helpful!
Hey frank, thank you for all your helpful videos. I’m currently building a short bus into a food truck. Going to be installing stainless steel soon what gage do you prefer to use? Also where did you order yours from?
20 gauge can't recommend any place right now. Since the ones I know the price sky rocketed I might use FRP on another build.
Hey Frank what size gauge of thickness of stainless steel I need to put behind the cooking stove on my food truck.. I guess backsplash to prevent hot grease from catching the wall on fire ? Thanks Frank👍🏾
I am interested in starting a food truck business. But I am concerned about the heat. How do I insulate the walls in the food truck to keep it cool inside when I’m running the air conditioner?
Air conditioner won't help once you are firing on all cylinders. It's like running the AC in your house with all the windows open might help but not much.
Hey brother I’m sorry if I missed it in the comment, but what is the size if your sheets? I saw on one comment you said 20 gauge and 10 feet long but what is the width of each sheet? And thank you in advance for all your help I really appreciate it your videos are awesome and detailed.
Appreciate that feedback. They are 4 feet in width
In the process of building a food truck. Was wondering where you source your stainless steel sheets from?
No specific place now, just calling around is the best bet
Hi bro is it okay to used screws in FRP on walls and ceiling?thanks bro I like all your video🎉
Do you have to take the protecked plastic off the back of the stainless steal sheets
iam also using glue
Hi Frank!The walls don t need insulation?
Where do you get the stanley steel sheets
I got them from a place called Roco Steel. But prices and the damaged stacked I bought are non existent. Call your Local Metal supplier 304 SS mill finish
What is the thickness of the metal sheet?
I believe 20 or 22 gauge
Hi Frank I’m at the beginning stages of building…do you recommend to have the door on the drivers side or the passenger side
Frank, what if i have metals walls already up but they are old behind them is insulation.. do i over lap it with newer metal or do i take the old sheets off?
I'll answer as if I owned your truck. I would remove the old and bring in the new as Long as it has a nice base to attach it to. Being plywood or something similar
Tapping holes for self tapping screws?
Yes. Screws will not make it through the stainless steel by themselves too strong of a metal
Hey Frank, after building your trailers. Do they have to go thru an inspection of some sort? Ever had any trouble getting all of your necessary licenses since your trailer is a DIY?
Only the health inspection and the city you will sell in fire inspection, some counties or cities might require other things but not here with us at least for now.
@@fbaltierrez Ok Great. Thanks Frank 👍🏼
Hey frank, great videos I’m in the process of building my concession
I just bought my stainless sheets 26 gauge
What gauge are you using?
How did the 26 gauge work for you? Was it too thin??
New sub. I don't see a link in the description for the sheets.
No link for the sheets. Shipping would kill ya these things are heavy. I would just Google metal suppliers near me I don't use SS at the moment just because of the crazy price of it now
Could you use vinyl panels for the non cooking areas?
As long as your health department approves.
Hi how are you how many plugs you put on your truck and are the all Nomar 110 plug
All normal 120volt tamper resistant outlets
And on one side 4 other 3
How much did you spend on Everything together
This is 2021 pricing. About 15k just in materials, hood window
How much would it cost to build a 12feet truck into a food truck?
All depends on what you put in there, cooking equipment, materials did you get SS Only or something else. Hard to answer accurately but for me I used about 12k just in materials and equipment
wait so you screw in the dividers?
Nothing. They slide in
Hi I need help remodeling my food
Truck . I am looking for someone that can remodel it it’s a small food truck I need to install grill fridge ect . Plus fix the whole trick pls …
Goodmorning!! I would recommend watching some of my videos, it's not terribly hard to do it yourself, you'll get it exactly how you want, and you'll save a lot of money. I believe you can do it!!
Is it a requirement to add stainless steel to all of the walls or only to the cooking portion?
As far as I know just the cooking area
Dought you read these any more being two years old, but having a money delima. I don’t k ow if I can afford the painted aluminum sheets like I want on my food trailer. It’s going g for 150.00 a sheet. It is 11 1/2’ long by 7’ wide approx, I’m extending it 3’. Need little more room. If I do get lucky enough to get aluminum sheets, should I run the sheets, up & down, overlap each end 1 1/2”, if I do it that way, I’m looking at 9 sheets and little over a grand, a grand I ain’t got right now. I’m in over my head too far to try and sell it, never get what I e got in it right now. I hv all tanks, plumbing, cabinets, had 900.00 structural welding done when 1st bought it. Floor was weak, put new roof on it avd hv insulation fir it only 2 sheets of what I’m using for ceiling covering. Flush mounted led lights, this that etc. couldn’t sell it avd get money I hv in it. Either way I run outside metal shell I’m looking at 9 sheets, plus padded SS wall covering on inside. Man I never expected to drop the dough I’m dropping thought I’d be selling my sandwiches already down on the Texas coast but going to be a easy 8 more months or longer still hv to run electrical, trying to figure out the snow for all that to see if my generator will carry it it’s a 10,000 w generator thanks anyone got idea of what I ca use that loons line painted yellow aluminum sheets I’m open thanks Steve

What do you use for the edging ?
On the edging if needed this. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07M793VN5/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B07M793VN5&linkCode=as2&tag=rollingburrit-20&linkId=9b596fb6e41fc02db37f3dde5c9f2ed6
Just a question is it required to have stainless steel walls in your trailer other than behind cooking appliances
As far as I know you just need it behind cooking equipment
And the rest non porous walls
@@fbaltierrez Thank you for the reply, I might have a few more questions, is this the best platform to ask them or do you have another outlet?
@@fbaltierrez Thank you
Hey frank, quick question. Why drill holes if you use self tapping screws?
Great question. Because the stainless steel is a tough one to drill through and a pilot hole helps tremendously
@@fbaltierrez ahh, gotcha. Im going to build one for a friend of mine who has a rolling ice cream business and wanted to make sure I had as much details as possible.
What's your opinion on using FRP boards instead of stainless steel, and it's cheaper.
That’s where you use a heat gun, easy to get it off.
Ahhhhhh there we go
@@fbaltierrez I’m looking at your videos cause I kind of want to build my own food trailer, thank you for all the tips.
What size is your food truck. What size are your stainless sheets. How many did you use
7x16. I used scrpas of SS that I got at a discount typically they were about 8 feet in length. How many? Depends on the size of your trailer and if you are doing the entire thing or just cooking side
What size is your food truck the dimensions please I am looking for one now. I am an electrician as well. You just inspired me to get this going
@@nicolebeckner2026 7x16 cargo mate trailer
Do u have to use stainless steel on a food truck?
Behind the cooking equipment yes
Where do you buy your concession stand window
J&R Aluminum
Hey, I am currently building a food trailer and I wanted to know where you purchased your sheet metal.
Where I purched they are $500 a sheet now. I ran out and needed more so I'm looking for a new place as well.
Where do you buy the stainless steel?
what size trailer is this and how much weight is the finished product usually?
What screws are you using to attach down the metal?

What size is your trailer? And how much did it cost? I am considering of making my own trailer for our food truck.
16 footer. About 15k just in materials roughly
what thickness of stainless steel did you purchase]
It's 20 gauge I believe
Where will the best place to find trailer at fir a descent price
Facebook Marketplace 100%
@@fbaltierrez thank you very much
How do you install the trim pieces
Hey Frank what is the size of the stainless steel 20G 304?
Do you have a video on covering the outside, or installing windows and doors ? I'm converting a utility trailer that is not enclosed I have to frame it out also - Sorry I gotta be me - a pain in the ass 😊
The only window I install is the concession window and that I have a few videos of that out there. No doors they are factory installed
What gauge is the stainless and where did you get it
Where did you get your sheets of metal? How much was the cost? Thanks so much
Roco Steel. $95 a sheet last year purchased
@@fbaltierrez you know the actual price now ?
@@alejandrofernandez7413 I would have no idea to be honest
Hey Frank where can I buy stainless steel? Thks
Haven't bought any more stainless too expensive now. Went with smooth FRP
de donde compromo este ventana?
Where did you get the stainless
I am new to this, but can an aluminum sheet metal or other sheet metal be used rather the steel? What would the benefit of having the steel sheet vs other metal sheets?
Aluminum stain
other metals tend to stain, rust and/or oxidize in a kitchen setting. Stainless steel eliminates all of the issues AND it is more durable than most other metals in this application. Also, your health department most likely will require stainless steel or something like FRP paneling for water resistancy and avoiding mildew
@@ItsHimMega Thank you so much. That is really great info! I really appreciate it.
No insulation?
Just insulation on ceiling and where the window is. If you wanted to add more guess you could doesn't help out much. It's going to get hot regardless when cooking
Please send me your link I want stainless
There is no link. Just have to call around the local metal distributors near you.
We're can I buy the s.s metal?? I'm a girl and don't know were to start
Where do you source the steel??
What? No header support on window after cutting studs then electrical tape on the wire access holes instead of proper romex connectors!??? Asking for failure! That trailer gets knocked around hard while in transit. Wires will get cut in time and no support will break that window. No even watching the rest. Piss pore job dude!
Apprentice the feedback, not a problem I'm sure there's lots of videos out there for you to watch. thanks for commenting tho. 3 years and 0 construction issues 😉👍
