A Family Affair
Performance Trailer Braking was founded in 2013 and the Barnett Family has been operating Performance Trailer Braking since Dan Barnett purchased the company in October 2017.
Since then, the company has grown around the Barnett's, with Dan, Amanda, Michael, Kelly, Zack, and others all pitching in in various roles. Even those who aren't technically family get treated like they are!
Michael Barnett, a retired military veteran of many years, and his wife Kelly Barnett are full time RVers who spend most of their time working with customers, attending rallies & shows, and keeping the warehouse stocked.
Dan Barnett, a tech veteran of the digital advertising industry, and his wife Amanda, manage the finances as well as the marketing and advertising.
Since taking over, we've worked tirelessly to push PTB's standards of expertise and customer support to new limits and do our best to make sure every customer is treated like we would want to be treated.
We have a small team of honest, hard working folks who are part of the family and help keep things running smoothly for our customers.
In addition, we have teamed up with several mobile independent installers who travel around the country to do brake, axle, and suspension installations.

"Thank you all"
Just wanted to give a shout out to the installation team that works through your company, Josh and Heather Shrader. They installed my brake kit today on my 5th wheel trailer. They were Read Moreboth very professional, they both took time to explain what they were doing and invited me to ask any questions that I might have. Their work was done in a timely manner and when they were done their work area was left clean and all old parts were placed in one spot with all cardboard for easy disposal. It was a real pleasure to have met them both. And by the way, the new disc brakes are awesome! Thank you all.
