Steel Yard Truck Loading Ramps

For loading where a truck-high dock is not available

Yard ramps perform one of two functions: ground up into a truck bed or from the dock level down to the ground. Listed yard ramps are most often used where there is a need to get a lift into a trailer from ground level (many others are available - contact us for assistance)
The capacity you select must be greater than the combined weight of your heaviest forklift and the heaviest weight of anticipated loads it will carry plus a safety factor. We recommend starting with three times the rated capacity of your lift truck
The operator utilizes a self-contained, double-acting hydraulic pump to adjust the unit to the proper position. In minutes you are ready to load or unload freight


Standard Safety Chains hold the Yard Ramp securely to the trailer or a dock A double acting hydraulic pump allows for smooth and quick raising of the front lip to the proper dock or trailer height The pump is mounted internally to protect it from accidental damage Bar Grating decking is provided with a serrated edge for traction. This open design prevents the build-up of water, snow, and debris. Heavy duty 18" solid rubber pneumatic profile tires make positioning the Yard Ramp easy The wheels are attached to the tubular steel box undercarriage assembly.
Yard Ramp Options

You have the choice of a Ramp Clamp or a Tow Bar to facilitate moving the ramp with a forklift. Either option is included in the pricing shown. Your choice must be specified at the time of order. The Ramp Clamp assists the operator in moving the ramp over short distances. Forklift tine inserts into the swiveling lift loop and is secured by a locking device. The Tow Bar features a fast locking, easy hookup to the Yard Ramp. It makes it practical to tow the ramp over long distances. A quick disconnect feature improves handling efficiency.
