Ramp Length & Load Height
This guide should help you gauge how long a ramp you require, so if you're in any doubt read the details below. If you still have questions after reading, feel free to give us a call. The crucial thing to know is your load height.
Load Height: this is the vertical measurement from the ground to where you rest the ramp onto.
Guide to the correct load height is shown in the product description/table.
For vehicle ramps EU guidelines recommend that no ramps with a gradient greater than 30% or 1:3.3 should be used. Essentially the load height x 3.3, gives you your ramp length. Furthermore no TUV Certified Ramp is designed to exceed this gradient. Going over this gradient is can cause accident, injury or death and may invalidate the warranty.
For loading cars and other vehicles with either a) Low ground clearance b) Front and/or Rear overhang a gentler gradient is recommended (this will vary depending upon the vehicle)

Capacity & Wheelbase Info
Capacity & Wheelbase Info
What is the wheelbase? - Wheelbase is the distance between the front and the back wheels.
Our loading ramps are usually safety tested and certified for three different length wheelbases. This is because the length of the wheelbase effects the spread of the weight applied to the ramps. The smaller the wheel base the more focused the load & therefore the less capacity the ramps can take.
The same applies with the width of the tyre or track which is why we list a ‘minimum track width’ within each product specification. We recommend reading the safety information supplied with the ramps before use to be sure the set supplied are suitable for your application.
Usage Guidelines and Safety Information for these ramps can be found here.
