joining two mobile homes

Post by Robert » Wed Jan 17, 2001 5:34 pm

Am looking for any help in the topic of joining together two mobile homes, will have to build a small foyer to join two existing doors, any help in this matter would be appreciated. One trailer is 35 ft by 8 ft and the other is 40 ft by 10ft. Have lots of land to put it on but am trying to be very conservative in this restoration. Thank you.

Robert: If you must join two homes together be sure that you do not use either home for support. The structure in between should be free standing. These homes are built to support themselves not added weight. The foyer in between should have an exit door. Manufactured homes are built to stand alone and the code states that an exit door must be within 35 feet of all bedrooms.
