506 and 511 Ramp Hinges

Have you had your ramp hinges checked?
We check the above models when they are in for servicing.
They were originally steel and powder coated, so they got rusty and in some cases they failed and ramps fell off.
If you are in any doubt and your trailer hasn't been serviced, do get them checked out. We can offer you a free inspection if you want to pop and see us.

We had an interesting job to go to last week, got a call from one of our colleagues asking if we could help them on a repair at their workshops. Very envious of their workshop.
A customer had had a serious accident and damaged the roof and front ramp surround.
We stripped the front ramp and it's surround to find the ramp hinges we're rotten so they got changed at the same time , the roof was then removed and the frame cleaned up and then the rebuild could begin.

Here we have an old photo of a test we did to try and show the difference in the strength of different types of flooring used on horse trailers.
We think it's worth a re-run as there has been a number of trailers coming up for sale as cheap safe transport for your horses with marine ply floors and its the best way to realise how different these things react to weight.
It's also worth reiterating that marine ply is not moisture proof unlike phenolic ply which uses a waterproof glue but still needs to be sealed along any cut edges.

So this week something came a little different. A 2 horse Ifor Williams horse box not a trailer but which at sometime someone had replaced the floor with 3mm exterior ply, yes 3mm and a sheet of 2mm chequer plate. Not sure how it never collapsed but had definitely stretched the aluminium between the chassis rail. We replaced it with the original 18mm phenolic ply to ensure the horses don't end up like Fred Flintstone.

Morning everybody here's a photo of what greeted us on a service this week on a newly purchased customers trailer that was in for a check over. The trailer looked to be in really good condition clean and tidy with all the lights working, however on removing the wheel hubs the brake pads fell off and the cables were all seized. There was no real way without removing the hubs the new owners would have been able to tell the condition of the brakes.
There are a couple of things if you are buying a trailer that you can try to give you an indication to the brakes condition
1 pull the handbrake on, if the handle goes to approximately the 12 o'clock position with ease and no noise this is a good sign.
2 rock the trailer backwards and forwards it should move easily if it's heavy then something is wrong.
3 if the seller says the brakes occasionally stick first thing but are always ok afterwards there is an issue.
You are required by law to have you trailer in roadworthy condition and you can get points on your licence and considerable fines. If you are the driver of the car then you are the one talking to the police.

We had another week of assorted trailers and horseboxes this week, with a very colourful horsebox needing a little cosmetic work in the horse area to a cattle trailer needing a full brake overhaul. The diary is nearly booked up for May so if you need any trailer work doing give us a ring and get booked in.
