Loading Ramps
Chequer-plate, built in pairs
Steel loading ramps fabricated in matched pairs with chequer-plate tread, built to the length, width and lip arrangement your trailer or loading bed needs — and finished in high-visibility paint so they are seen in a busy yard.

- Length
- Built to the loading height you work to
- Width

Lengths, widths and ratings are configuration guidance. The safe working load for your ramps is confirmed in writing against the machine you load before manufacture.
Range
Build variants
Each variant is fabricated to order. Start from the closest one and change what you need in the configurator.
Hook-over lip
Hooks over the trailer bed and stays put as the machine drives on.
Pinned lip
Pinned to the trailer where ramps must not shift under a tracked machine.
Grip-bar tread
Welded bar tread for tracked machines and muddy sites where chequer plate fills.
Wide-track pair
Extra-wide ramps where the machine track is unusually wide or the driver wants margin.

Before you order
Questions the team gets asked
If yours isn't here, message the workshop — you'll get a straight answer rather than a brochure.
- What length do I need?
- The longer the ramp, the shallower the angle and the safer the load. Measure the height of your trailer bed and the team works the length back from that.
- Chequer plate or grip bar?
- Chequer plate is the everyday choice on wheeled machines. Grip bar sheds mud and suits tracked machines and wet sites.
- Can I get a single ramp?
- Yes — ramps are usually supplied in matched pairs, but singles are built where you are replacing one.
- Do you deliver?
- Delivery across Northern Ireland, the Republic and mainland UK is arranged on request, or you are welcome to collect from the Banbridge workshop.
