What Ends and Feet do I Need?
There are a few different designs at both ends of a ramp, so sometimes it comes down to your application and your trailer design:
End Types
- Plate ends require firm attachment to prevent slipping
- Hook ends lock into rub rails and the Alumi-Loc attaching system
- Hybrid ends have a plate and hook
- Pin-on ends are the most secure but require special skid seat attaching brackets
- Roller ends are designed for car-hauling trailers
Feet Types
- A knife cut foot has a tapered end that lies flat for a specific ramp angle
- A stub toe foot has a reinforced end and is better for heavier equipment
For more details, please read our Trailer Ramp End Selection Guide and Heavy Duty Loading Ramp Foot Styles.
