Ra`alloy single span van ramps are the UK's favoured ramp thoughout many industry's including Lighting and Sound equipment companies having being used for over 25 years.
Walkway ramps, for faster loading over steps to bridging ramps from van to loading point, in fact virtually any application is possible with a Ra`alloy single span van ramp.
The all aluminium ramp combines our unique, everlasting anti slip floor with a safe working load of 750 kgs leaving a totally safe van loading solution, whatever the weather.
All of Ra`alloy Van Ramps range taper to a point where the ramp meets the ground so as to not leave any step and offer a clean, smooth walkway with no tripping hazards.
As a Flight Case ramp these ramps offer complete versatility whatever `load in` situation you are faced with and that is why Ra`alloy Flight Case ramps have developed their own branding within the entertainment & event industry`s.
Each ramp contains the correct amount of aluminium for strength and
also the weight is carefully calculated for easy lightweight handling which also prevents the ramp bouncing and moving while in use. 
These van ramps can be used across flat ground, and up to any height between the ground and the recommended maximum working height. Standard stock sizes are available or we can manufacture a van ramp to suit your
Just a few features
- Lifetime Guarantee on unique Ra`alloy everlasting anti - slip surface
- Simple fitting - just place in position and use
- Manufactured from lightweight aluminium
- Solid Welded Construction
- The perfect weight for easy handling and to prevent bounce when in use
- Standard products manufactured to withstand loads of 750 kg (Lloyds British Load tested to 3 times this amount)
- Full depth side Stringer continues into the van for massive added strength (see above)
- Tapers where the ramp meets the ground leaving a smooth run for equipment with wheels
- Up standing side edges prevents accidently wheeling off the ramp.
- Unique rest on or hook on attachment.
- Safety rest on leading edge guide acts as guide onto the ramp when loading at night or visibility is obscured

Van Ramp Technical Info and Features
Ra'alloy van ramps have proved the market leader over the past 25 years. Their superb engineering has tried to be copied by others who have failed. Many companies are still using the same Ra'alloy Van Ramp they purchased 25 years ago and they still remain in virtually the same condition as when they purchased them.
Our ramps are particularly designed to withstand substantial misuse, while at the same time lightweight enough for easy handling yet heavy enough to not bounce off the van edge when in use.
One of the major advantages of our Van ramps is the floor which again has been proven to outlast any other. Companies who claim their ramps to be lighter than the competion, can only amount to a ramp that will jump around and cause accidents by falling when in use or the floor bending after minor use making the ramp impossible to use.
Please expand this picture to see the results of an under engineered floor ofa competitors ramp who claim their ramps to be lighter.
LESS ALUMINIUM means LESS STRENGTH
All Aluminium Construction
Our portable van ramps are manufactured from construction grade aluminum. Three special aluminium extrusions combine to offer a lightweight, super strong ramp that is so robust it will cater for the most rugged handling and conditions.
The picture below outlines some of the features of our van ramps
Anti Slip Floor
Ra`alloy Ramps have an exclusive anti slip floor that has been proved to remain non slip in most weather conditions including ice. Our unique floor surface is ribbed, and then machine serrated so as to give total all round grip. We can also pierce the floor to aid water displacement.
Side Stringer Details
Our standard duty van ramps have a 7.5 cm side Stringer and the flooring sits approximately 2.5 cm below the top. This leaves and up-stand to prevent accidentally wheeling off the ramp. The Side Stringers are 2.5cm thick on both sides and this should be deducted from the usable quoted ramp width.
The Side Stringer neck of the van ramp is full thickness where the ramp sits on the van (see picture ). This adds massive strength over other types of competitor ramps with an angle type section fixed to the front. This practice leaves a huge weakness at the critical load point where the ramp meets the van, therefore potentially the neck will break off under load.
Rest On Top
Our Rest On top offers the ultimate in safety. Our Side Stringer up-stands continue to the end of the ramp and onto the van, this is a great safety feature and gives a guide to making sure that you are wheeling or walking on the ramp, on the van bed before descending if your vision is obscured when carrying large packages or when night loading. This also adds great strength and allows the ramp to be used at any height up to the recommended length. A Ram Bar below the ramp stops the ramp from moving forward in use
Hook On Top
Our Hook On top requires two 13mm holes drilling into the van bed edge. The ramp dowels simply lock into the holes. Hook on connection is restricted to permanent positioning unless multiple location holes are drilled.
Load Testing
All Van Ramps are manufactured within the envelope of Lloyds British Load Tested ramps. Lloyds British Load Testing are a respected body in the UK for leading insurance and associated companies. Our commitment to Health & Safety made us the first ramp manufacturer to introduce such stringent testing and our Van Ramps carry a safe working load of 750 kgs
Low Ground Clearance Machines or Cases
Our standard ramps are manufactured to suit an approximate 18 degree incline which is great for standard Flight Case type units. If your machine or item to be loaded has a low ground clearance below 6 cm (2 1/2”) please tell us and we will assist your ramp design by pre testing on our in-house model to make sure that your items do not ground out while loading.
Low Vertical Height Usage
Our standard range van ramps are manufactured so that when working at our maximum working height, the Rest On end is flat on the bed. If you require the end to sit flat at a lower, or even higher than standard please talk to one of our advisers or see `Design Your Own Ramp, tab and we will manufacture the ramp to suit at no extra cost.
