When considering a mobile home, the double wide trailer is a standout choice. These homes offer an abundance of space by combining two separate units into one cohesive living space. Not only are they cost-effective, but they also provide ample room for customization, allowing you to create a home tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle. However, understanding the precise dimensions of your double wide trailer is crucial for effective custom building, remodeling, or carrying out necessary repairs. At Spartans Properties, where we specialize in buying and selling used properties, we're here to provide the answers you need.

Determining Your Double Wide Trailer Dimensions

Accurate measurements play a pivotal role in any mobile home-related project. Whether you're planning to revamp your living space, undertake repairs, or make renovations, knowing your double wide trailer's dimensions is essential. Here are some key areas where these measurements come into play:

 

Windows: To replace or install windows correctly, it's essential to measure them accurately. Window sizes for mobile homes are often standardized, simplifying the process. To get precise dimensions, measure the window openings from inside your home.

​

Doors: Doors in a double wide trailer come in various sizes, and getting the right dimensions is crucial for replacement or customization. To measure your doors correctly, remove them and measure the openings in the wall. Avoid measuring frame to frame, as frame sizes can vary among manufacturers. Always remember to include the measurements of the exterior metal frame if applicable.

Standard Double Wide Trailer Dimensions

​

Understanding the standard dimensions of a double wide trailer can provide valuable insights when planning any modifications or renovations:

​

• A double wide trailer can range from approximately 1,000 square feet to over 2,000 square feet, depending on the specific model and manufacturer.

• These mobile homes are typically constructed in two sections, which are assembled on-site to create a single, spacious living area.

• The size of your double wide trailer may differ from the size of the lot on which it is placed, as mobile home lots vary in size.

 

Choosing the Right Double Wide Trailer

​

When selecting a double wide trailer, it's essential to consider several factors beyond size and dimensions. Factors like accommodation, available land space, both internal and external dimensions, and the decision to opt for a new or used trailer all play a crucial role in making the right choice for your lifestyle and budget.

​

Whether you choose a new or used double wide trailer, each has its advantages. New trailers offer customization options, allowing you to modify both the exterior and interior to suit your style. Used trailers, on the other hand, are more budget-friendly but require a thorough inspection to ensure they meet your standards.

​

Having accurate measurements at your disposal empowers you to make informed decisions and plan any improvements to your double wide trailer effectively. The spaciousness of a double wide trailer provides an ideal canvas for creating a home that perfectly suits your needs, ensuring you feel right at home.
