Any advice / plans / tips re how to build in a fold out bed (folding to the outside) into the front section of an enclosed/pantec trailer?
E.g. - Size steel, method for affixing to existing trailer frame, use of gas struts?, are there such kits available that would have material/canvas already cut and ready? - Any companies that sell as a kit?
Examples a) something like this, except mine trailer is not a pop top.
I'd contact any camper mfg company that makes/made such things.
They probably have ready made units on shelf to install in their units???.
or parts thereof.
Some small caravan mfg's yrs ago.
Made a small van with end that made into double bed ext to van.
Have fun

I did start looking around and googling for a kit but couldn't find one. If anyone knows a company that might sell such a kit?
I might also try the caravan manufacture and see whether they might sell what I want as a part so to speak, if they're willing to.

b) example here (more obvious example of just a popout for an enclosed/pantec type trailer):
