Welcome to Tow-A-Frame

We’re a dedicated team specialising in lightweight, auto-align, electronic braked A-Frame systems. With over 30 years of combined experience in the towing and automotive industries, we’ve been part of the sector since 2002, starting with trailers and evolving into today’s market-leading solutions.

Our story began in 2002 with the original Smart Trailers Cross Country, followed by the Brooklands Trailer with sliding ramps. In 2004, we established Half Moon Bay Leisure as the holding company for Smart Trailers, Bantam Trailers, and Smart Tow — which has since grown into Tow-A-Frame Ltd.

By 2010, we recognised the benefits of advanced American braking technology and became the sole UK distributor of the Smart Box Duo power braking system (originally developed by SMI and now part of the Demco Group, USA).

As long-standing users of trailers, caravans, motorhomes, and A-frame systems ourselves, we understand the practical, everyday needs of our customers. This first-hand knowledge gives us a unique insight into designing, supplying, and supporting both A-frame and trailer solutions.

In March 2020, we became NTTA-trained Tow Bar Installers, enabling us to meet customer requirements for tow bar fitting with the same precision and care we bring to our A-frame installations. Today, our A-frames, inserts, pins, and hardware are proudly designed, manufactured, and tested in the UK.

We work closely with local suppliers and manufacturers, supporting small businesses just as they support us. Above all, we stand by our ethos of integrity, innovation, pride in quality, and customer service that goes the extra mile.
