01 / The problem

Everything at camp went motorized. Except the mat.

Awning: button. Jacks: button. Slide-outs: button. Then someone still has to drag a rug out of storage to set up camp.

  • 01

    Wet and muddy

    Rain soaks it. Mud sticks to it. Then it goes back in your rig.

  • 02

    Flimsy and fragile

    Light rugs tear, fray, flip and blow away.

  • 03

    Dirt inside

    Grit rides in on boots and paws and ends up in the bed.

  • 04

    Storage

    A dirty rug takes space inside, and that space is limited.

  • 05

    Setup arguments

    Who rolls it out. Who shakes it off. Who folds it wet.

  • 06

    Dark camp

    After sundown, the ground by the door is a guess.

02 / How it works

Out in a button press. In the same way.

BaseRoll is a sealed housing that mounts under your RV, trailer or van. Inside: a 12V reversible drive, a 9-foot trifold mat, sweep brushes and a light.

    Walk it out

    Grab the handle and walk. The motor feeds the mat out with you.

  3. CAD render at night: the unfolded mat lit by a warm light strip under the van.

    Unfold

    Open the side panels like pages in a book. 81 square feet of clean ground. Design

  4. CAD render: green alignment laser along a folded mat, with an inset of the two-button handheld remote.

    Reel in

    Fold the panels, line the handle up with the green laser, press reel-in. Brushes sweep it on the way home.

Inside the housing

Sealed. Self-closing. Built to ride under a rig.

  • The door closes itself for travel
  • Sealed against road spray and debris Testing: Winter 2026
  • Zip-on mat. Swap color or replace it worn.
  • Manual hand-crank if power fails

03 / Design your camp

Make it yours. Then move in.

The mat is designed to zip on and off, so the look is up to you. Pick your rig and layout, design the mat, then drag in chairs, a table and the dog bed to see how 81 square feet really feels.

The center strip walks straight out from the door (dashed). The side panels unfold to either side, or one each way.

  • Motor-assist walk-out In testing

    12V reversible drive pays out the mat as you walk.

  • One-button reel-in In testing

    Handheld remote. No app, no pairing.

  • Trifold mat Design

    Stows 36 in wide. Unfolds to 9 × 9 ft.

  • Weighted for wind Design

    Built to stay down without stakes.

  • Sweep brushes Design

    Two brushes knock debris off on the way in.

  • Green alignment laser Design

    Eye-safe line to square the handle.

  • Dimmable light Design

    Lights the mat and the ground at the door.

  • Swappable mat Design

    Zips on and off. Colors and patterns later.

05 / Fitment

Same unit. Different bracket.

The housing stays the same. The mounting bracket changes to fit your frame. Search our rig research below, or tap a rig type to start.

    Mounting styles

    Diagram, mounting style within frame: the BaseRoll housing hangs between the two I-beam frame rails, with the drop-down door opening toward the patio side. Diagram, mounting style adjacent to frame: the BaseRoll housing mounts on a bracket beside one I-beam frame rail, with the drop-down door opening toward the patio side.

    Illustrations. The BaseRoll™ unit is designed to mount within or adjacent to the frame. Fitment varies by vehicle.

    1. Phase 1 Done

      Design + CAD

      Mechanism, housing and deploy sequence modeled and animated.

    2. Phase 2 Done

      Prototype R1

      First working build, in the garage, on an extruded frame with test materials. It reeled in.

    7. Pending

      First production run

      Built in the USA with American suppliers where we can.

    Real hardware: Prototype R1

    R1 used test materials to prove the reel-in. R2 is the one that goes under a rig.

    08 / FAQ

    Straight answers.

    Something missing? info@baserolladventure.com

    Can I buy one yet?

    No. BaseRoll is a prototype. Join the waitlist and you'll hear first when pricing and availability are set.

    Is it patented?

    Patent pending. We filed a US application in March 2026 and a PCT (international) application in July 2026.

    How big is the patio?

    The target is a 9-foot mat, 36 inches wide, that unfolds to 9 × 9 ft (81 sq ft).

    How big is the unit?

    The prototype housing is about 48 in long, 10.5 in wide and 10.5 in deep. That may change before production.

    Will it fit my rig?

    It's designed for camper vans, travel trailers, fifth wheels, motorhomes and off-road trailers. The unit stays the same; the bracket changes. Search for your rig in the fitment finder. If it's not there, email your make, model and year and we'll tell you what we know.

    How does it deploy?

    Press the button. The door lowers. Grab the handle and walk the mat out while the motor assists. Then unfold the side panels.

    How does it go back in?

    Fold the side panels, line the handle up with the green laser, and press reel-in on the remote. Two brushes sweep the mat as it goes in.

    Does it need an app?

    No. It runs from its own handheld remote.

    What if the power dies?

    There's a manual hand-crank override. You can always stow it.

    Can I swap the mat?

    Yes. The mat is designed to zip on and off, so you can replace it or change the look.

    What will it cost?

    Not set yet. We'll publish pricing to the waitlist first. Pending

    Who's building it

    One engineer. One garage. Denver.

    BaseRoll is designed and engineered in Denver, Colorado by Jerred Lane, founder of Base Roll LLC, after a career in aerospace. The plan is to build in the USA with American suppliers wherever possible.
