Yard Ramps v. Dock-to-Ground Ramps | Portable Ramp for Loading Dock

With consideration to warehouse loading and unloading tasks, the two best Lots-a-Ramps options include mobile yard ramps and dock-to-ground ramps.

Yard Ramps | Mobile Loading Dock Ramps

Convert vacant space into a freight-handling center with mobile yard ramps.  Expand current dock capacity and create a loading facility without the hassle of new construction. Portable yard ramps provide ground level access to buildings and trucks. Quickly move from job-to-job and handle freight with a forklift or lift truck virtually anywhere.  Also available are rental and certified used yard ramps!

Ramp Design

A step above competitors, Lots-a-Ramps single-cylinder hydraulic allows for 2-1/2 times faster lift times than typical two cylinder systems.  The yard ramp design features an 8-foot level off, allowing forklifts easy access to trucks and loading docks.  A low end plate allows the front wheels of forklifts to reach high-traction, serrated steel grating while rear wheels remain in contact with the ground.

Ramp Mobility

18-inch pneumatic, solid-filled tires are standard on all mobile yard ramps.  With lubricated-for-life bearings and no need for air to fill, pneumatic tires are maintenance free.  Maneuver 180 degrees to reposition, reducing load/unload timing with Lots-a-ramps’s positioning sleeve.  An optional towbar allows mobile ramps to be towed short distances within the facility.

Specifications

Mobile yard ramps are available in a steel or aluminum base.  A wide range of new and used mobile ramp designs handle capacities up to 30,000 lbs.  Custom specifications, such as aluminum ramps with steel grating, are available upon request.

Dock-to-Ground Ramps

Dock-to-ground ramps are the ideal solution for handling materials with vehicles that need to travel from grade level to dock height. In comparison to mobile yard ramps, dock-to-ground ramps are traditionally used in fixed loading situations.  In turn, these ramps are ideal for long-term reliable loading and unloading tasks. Since the ramp goes directly from dock height to ground level, there isn’t a need for hydraulic pump or tires.  Ramps can be custom built to match existing loading dock specifications.

High-strength steel grating allows snow, water, and other debris to fall through, leaving a high-traction running surface. Dock-to-ground ramps provide a versatile alternative to permanent concrete installations.
