Mobile Yard Ramp (Mobile Forklift Ramp)

Altam is a Manufacture of high-quality yard ramps for warehouse and industrial use. Yard Ramps, also known as Portable Loading Ramps or Portable Loading Docks, are a safe and affordable solution to a variety of loading dock challenges.

The majority of yard ramps serve one of two purposes. They let your forklift either up into a truck bed or down to the ground from the dock level. Which of these tasks you select to do will determine which design is best for your application.

Maximum strength is provided by steel grating with bearing bars aligned in the direction of travel, while the serrated top offers good grip and discourages the accumulation of snow, water, and other debris. A smooth transition and the ramp’s longest life are provided by solid steel deck approach plates at both ends. 

(WARNING: Some competitor models have open grating at both ends, which allows the forklift’s steering wheels to twist the bearing bars and cause failure.)

Yard ramps are used for:

  • Material Storage Yards: A very common use of yard ramps is in industrial storage yards where it is not possible to install a loading dock.
  • Relocating Equipment: Moving heavy equipment is another frequent use, whether it is for mining, forestry, oil and gas, construction, or other industrial sectors that employ big machinery.
  • Location: Ramps can be used in a variety of remote job site scenarios, not just construction sites. For example, they can be used for loading agricultural totes, military gear and supplies, outdoor festivals and concerts, and much more.
  • Dock Extension: Yard ramps can help temporarily expand loading dock capacity without requiring building when a facility experiences temporary volume surges or unanticipated demand.
  • Access for Vehicles into Buildings: On sites having both a factory or warehouse and a storage yard, yard ramps can facilitate the unrestricted movement of forklifts.
