Mobile Loading Ramps
Mobile Yard Ramps & Forklift Ramps
Are you moving freight between sites that will never have a fixed dock? The Dura-Ramp Mobile is our answer to that exact problem. It runs on an innovative wheel system that lets one or two people reposition the ramp without a crane or a concrete pad, and its fully self-supported design means it does not lean on a trailer or a building for stability the way older yard ramps do. That self-standing frame is also why the Dura-Ramp Mobile is a safer choice than many of the wheeled ramps still being sold on the market today: nothing shifts or settles once the support legs are down. Between the mobility and the standing strength, no other portable loading ramp gives your crew the same combination of speed and confidence, whether you are setting up for an afternoon or leaving it in place for a season.

Impressive Versatility
Easy to move to a variety of loading locations, our mobile ramp sets up and breaks down quickly for minimal downtime, and it supports several yard and loading dock application options rather than locking you into one configuration.
Durable Mobile Ramp Construction
Every Dura-Ramp Mobile is a 100% welded steel design supported by heavy-duty I-beams, and we build it tough enough to handle frequent daily use plus the weather it will actually see outdoors.
Highest Level Safety Standards
High-traction serrated steel bar grate decking keeps footing solid in wet or icy conditions, a safety chain secures the ramp to the trailer during loading, and an integrated dock plate gives forklifts a safe, controlled entry and exit.
Little to No Downtime
Since the design is maintenance-free, there is no need to budget time for cleaning or repairs between jobs, and the fast, efficient setup means less time waiting on the ramp and more time loading.
We also produce completely Customized Ramps.

Wheel System
The wheel system is what separates the Dura-Ramp Mobile from a fixed yard ramp. It provides the maneuverability to reposition the ramp across a yard or between sites, then lifts clear of the ground once the support legs are set so the full load path runs through the steel frame, not the wheels.
Freestanding Design with Adjustable Support Legs
A two-speed hand-crank system is simple to operate and adjusts the deck height in seconds, so one operator can match the ramp to a new trailer height without extra equipment or a second set of hands.
Quality Finishing
Every ramp is coated with a high-quality polyurethane paint in the colour of your choice, protecting the steel while keeping the finish consistent with the rest of your yard equipment.
Ramp Options
Electric Easy-Lift
Requiring just a standard 110V electrical connection, the Electric Easy-Lift makes raising or lowering your portable loading dock as simple as pressing a button instead of cranking by hand. CLICK TO LEARN MORE
Transition Plate
A 16-inch manually operated hinged loading dock transition plate replaces the integrated 6-inch dock overlap with a series of longer, door-style hinged plates for a smoother handoff between ramp and trailer.
Integrated Dock Leveler
The integrated dock leveler also replaces the 6-inch dock overlap, adding more height adjustment, rubber bumpers, and time savings on truck loading applications where trailer heights vary.
Removable Hand Railings
We recommend removable hand-railings for any application with regular foot traffic alongside the ramp.
Wood Decking
Wood decking is a must if any type of tracked equipment will be using the dock ramp, since it protects both the equipment and the ramp surface.
Upgraded Channel Rails
Upgraded channel rails replace our standard tube railing with a solid, robust curb railing built to withstand the harshest abuse a busy yard can put on it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much weight can a mobile loading ramp hold?
Our Dura-Ramp Mobile line is rated from 20,000 to 30,000 lbs depending on the model, which covers the combined weight of most sit-down forklifts and their loads. As a rule of thumb, size the ramp to well above the forklift’s rated lifting capacity plus the heaviest load it will carry, not just the load alone.
Can a mobile ramp be moved between sites without a forklift?
Yes. The wheel system is built for exactly that: one or two people can reposition the ramp by hand once it is unloaded, and the self-supporting legs mean you are not waiting on a crane or a tow vehicle to set it back down.
How is a mobile loading ramp different from a fixed yard ramp?
A fixed yard ramp stays anchored in one spot and typically supports a higher load rating, while our mobile ramp trades a bit of that ceiling for the ability to relocate across a yard or between job sites in under an hour, with no concrete pad required.
How long does it take to set up a Dura-Ramp Mobile?
Setup is fast: lower the support legs, adjust the deck height with the hand crank or the Electric Easy-Lift, and secure the safety chain. Most crews have the ramp ready for forklift traffic in well under an hour.
Do I need a permit or a concrete pad to use a mobile loading ramp?
No concrete pad is required. The ramp is designed to sit on a level gravel or paved surface, which is part of why it works so well for construction sites and multi-site operations that cannot wait on permanent dock construction.
Which Dura-Ramp Mobile model is right for a construction site?
Most construction crews do well with the DR-M30 or DR-M36 for their 30,000-lb capacity and wide deck, since job sites tend to see mixed loads and less predictable ground conditions than a dedicated warehouse yard.
Can the ramp be customized for a non-standard trailer height or dock overlap?
Yes. Beyond the standard five models, we also produce completely customized ramps built to your site’s specific dimensions, and options like the transition plate or integrated dock leveler can be added to handle a dock overlap outside the standard range.
