Prioritize safety with our range of breakaway systems. With systems from brands like BMPRO and AL-KO, invest in sophisticated and reliable mechanisms that automatically apply your trailer's brakes during unplanned disconnections, so you never have to worry about an out-of-control vehicle. Designed to be compatible with a range of caravans and RVs, discover the selection below and drive with peace of mind at all times.
The Tow Secure automatically applies the trailer brakes and the trailer stop lights in the event that the trailer separates from the tow vehicle. It comprises of a control module, a switch and a wireless receiver (this is housed on the dash so that the driver can monitor the brakes battery via LED and audible alarms). The control module performs a 'self-test' every time the tow vehicles' engine is started to ensure everything is operable and whilst towing, an automatic battery test is carried out every 30 minutes. The control module can be paired with multiple wireless receivers - this may be required if the same trailer is towed by different vehicles.
TOW A TRAILER SAFELY AND LEGALLY
Australian Design Rule mandates that all trailers having a gross trailer mass over 2,000 kg should utilise a break-away safety system on all wheels. Emergency braking system must also be capable of automatically activating should the trailer become detached from the tow vehicle. In such a situation the brakes must remain active for a minimum of 15 minutes. TrailSafe is a highly effective break-away safety system designed to activate the electric brakes of a trailer or a caravan in the event of a disconnection from the towing vehicle. TrailSafe takes convenience a step further by utilising the trailer's house battery to power the brakes in a break-away situation. This means there is no need to maintain a second battery in your trailer throughout the year. TrailSafe also provides an indication of the charge status of the house battery. It also checks the condition of the pull pin and effective activation of the brakes.
This is transmitted through a wire to a remote monitor, as well as by Bluetooth wireless to the optional TrailCheck. If the towing vehicle becomes separated from the trailer, mechanical pull pin is removed from TrailSafe, thus detecting disconnection. Upon disconnection, the brakes and brake lights are activated as long as charge remains in the trailer battery or until the pin is replaced.

For trailers over 2000 kg GTM it is a requirement that, should the tow vehicle and trailer separate accidentally, that the trailer brakes are applied at full power for a minimum period of 15 minutes. The brake-away switch is the crucial link between your van and tow vehicle that indicates to your brake-away device that the trailer and tow vehicle have separated and brake application is required.
