To calculate the ramp length for your requirements, you can use this simple formula:
(Trailer Height divided by Gradient) multiply by 100 = Length of Ramp required

Firstly you need to measure the height of the trailer or deck you wish to load onto / off.
The maximum (steepest) recommended gradient is 30° (%).

Example 1
Trailer height:    1.2m

Gradient:             30°
(1.2 ÷ 30) x 100 = (0.04) x 100 = 4.0m

Example 2

Deck height:       0.9m

Gradient:             28°
(0.9 ÷ 28) x 100 = (0.03) x 100 = 3.0m

If in doubt, contact us and we will gladly assist you in calculating the ramp length that best suits your requirements.
