Some trailer brakes will not lock -- even under full battery voltage.

According to Dexter Axle:
On an unloaded trailer, you may be able to lock up your brakes
if your electric brake controller is supplying full amperage to the brakes.
When loaded to capacity, you may not be able to lock your brakes
as electric brakes are designed to slow the trailer at a controlled rate,
and not designed to lock up the wheels on a fully loaded trailer.
