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, 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, manages 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.
"Truly one of a kind amazing people!!!!"
Hi Kelly,
I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for all your help getting this done but most importantly I wanted to really thank you for setting us up with John & Barbara for th Read Moree install.
Professional, polite, fun, knowledgeable and just simply decent people doesn’t even to begin to describe them. Your company is truly blessed to have them!! What an amazing team they are.
They both explained every step of the way what was going on, explained every part being used and it’s purpose. We left for a couple hours during the install and our campground neighbor was totally impressed that even while we were not there they kept working and never missed a beat!!!
After the install was complete John & Barbara hung around for a while going over everything and making sure I had no questions. I’ll be honest.. I’m not the most mechanical person and John made sure I understood everything and the proper way to maintain it as well as making sure I had all their contact information if I ever needed anything or had a problem or questions!!
Truly one of a kind amazing people!

"Fantastic to work with"
I just wanted to send you a message saying how fantastic your disc brake conversion is and works. We had done a small local trip with the brakes installed in May which they worked great. Read MoreYesterday we did a 400 mile trip down the east coast and it totally made a huge difference...no worrying about having to stop in a hurry if needed! Which did happen on the New Jersey Turnpike, night and day difference! Thanks again for all the help with getting us new springs and equalizers as well. All is in good shape now!
You folks are fantastic to work with and your products you sell are fantastic as well!
