Copperloy | America’s Ultimate Yard Ramps
The YARD-RAMP-SITE yard ramp is engineered to maximize space, productivity, and safety making it America’s ultimate yard ramps. Made in the USA, our revamped, one-cylinder yard ramp design uses less pressure to lift the ramp compared to traditional yard ramps with two-cylinder hydraulic systems. This change has resulted in:
- Easier operation – The pump location on the outside of the yard ramp frame allows for more convenient access.
- Faster raise times – Position the ramp up to two and a half times faster than the average ramp.
- Less wear and tear – Rotation occurs on the redesigned positioning sleeve instead of the ramp connection, reducing wear on the ramp structure.
- Greater stability – Centrally located cylinder means less chance of tipping.
- Solid-filled pneumatic tires – Better handle rugged terrain and also reduce the chances of punctures or air pressure problems.

FEATURES
8-FOOT LEVEL OFF
Copperloy mobile ramps have an 8-foot level off feature. This is ncessary for forklifts to have easy access onto trucks, loading docks and platforms. It allows the fork truck to safely enter the trailer at a level approach and without having to stop. This feature makes for a very stable yard ramp and is especially useful on mobile ramps.
15-INCH LIP
The 15-inch lip is designed to firmly rest on the truck carrier body, dock floor or platform. Our mobile ramps come equipped with eight-foot-long safety chains. Chains join the ramp to keep it from pulling away.
HYDRAULIC PUMP
The single-acting hydraulic hand pump design requires half the effort needed to raise ramp compared to other mobile ramps. The pump is relocated so that it is protected away from dirt, debris, damage and makes maintenance easier to perform. The handle is stored out of the way when not in use.
SMOOTH SIDE PLATES
Smooth side plates and safety curbs are standard. They are constructed of high strength steel and enclose all working components, while also protecting them from possible damage from other equipment.
LOW END PLATE
We designed an end plate that is shorter than the wheelbase of most fork lift trucks. This way, front drive wheels can reach high-traction grating, while rear wheels are still on the ground. The plate comes standard with beveling from the underside. This helps to provide an easy and smooth ground-level entry. It also eliminates jolts and bumps as the fork lifts travel on and off the yard ramp, with or without a load.
DECK GRATING ON OUR YARD RAMPS
High-strength steel is standard on all YARD RAMP Site yard ramps. Grating bars are constructed for durability in the roughest of applications. The 1-3/4 inch bar depth allows snow, rain, and other debris to fall through. The serrated grating helps to ensure an all-weather, high-traction running surface.
SAFETY CURBS
7-inch high curbs are standard on all YARD RAMP Site ramps to help prevent accidental runoff with a patented box frame.
18-INCH SOLID/PNEUMATIC TIRES
The solid/pneumatic tires are standard on all YARD RAMP Site mobile yard ramps and are ideal for all applications. The tires do not require air to fill, are maintenance free, and have lubricated-for-life bearings.
THE YARD RAMP POSITIONING SLEEVE
The position sleeve allows the ramp to maneuver 180 degrees which reduces loading/unloading time and increases productivity. The fork slides into the positioning sleeve and the ramp can easily be positioned into place. The positioning sleeve is included with all steel mobile yard ramps. The sleeve is not intended for long-distance towing.
TOWBAR
The towbar is an option on both steel and aluminum mobile yard ramps which attaches to the lower end of the loading ramp. It allows the ramp to be towed a short distance (within your facility). The max towing speed is 5-mph and is not intended for over-the-road towing.
Our yard ramps are trusted by businesses across the United States. Let us help you choose the right one for your operation today.
Create a Dock Anywhere with a Mobile Yard Ramp
Companies can create a dock anywhere with a mobile yard ramp by easily converting open yard space into a portable loading dock. Yard ramps provide a safe, efficient method to load/unload freight with forklifts and access the back of the truck. Yard ramps are a cost-effective way to expand your freight handling capacity.
Portable Yard Ramp Safety
For proper portable yard ramp safety, prior to using it is important to thoroughly review the owners manual. Only trained personnel should operate the ramp. It is extremely important to ensure that the ramp is properly secured before loading and unloading tasks. View the owners manual below for a full overview of instructions and precautions.
Portable Yard Ramp Applications
The yard ramp acts as a portable loading dock ramp and an ideal solution for shipments that need to go from ground level to the truck and a fast method to unload a truck to the ground. YARD RAMP Site offers both aluminum ramps and steel ramps depending on your weight and application requirements. Rentals are available and ideal for short-term projects.
Portable Steel Yard Ramps
YARD RAMP Site portable steel yard ramps are available in different base materials. However, steel is the standard base for yard ramps. As a leader in custom steel fabrication, YARD RAMP Site has mastered the craft of high-strength steel specifications and integrated features such a serrated steel grating for added traction. Manufactured in the USA, steel ramps are built for durability and made to last.
Dock-to-Ground Yard Ramps
Our dock-to-ground yard ramps provide a semi-permanent solution and are typically fixed to the dock for fast, efficient loading/unloading solution handling weights up to 30,000 lbs. YARD RAMP Site dock-to-ground ramps can be custom built to the specifications of your dock for a safe, versatile way to expand the capability of your loading dock.
Ground-to-Truck Portable Yard Ramps
Ground-to-truck ramps allow for easy ground level access to semi-trucks. YARD RAMP Site ramps allow for maximum safety and productivity when unloading and loading. Designed for industrial use, ramps are available in aluminum or steel based on your material handling requirements.
Heavy-duty Portable Loading Docks
For facilities with limited space or no permanent dock exists, portable loading docks can provide a cost-effective solution for parallel loading when used with dock-to-ground or yard ramps. Copperloy’s portable loading platform feature durable steel construction that can handle capacities up to 60,000 pounds. Their unique design allows lift trucks to easily make right angle turns. Multiple portable loading docks can be connected when larger portable loading docks are required.
Choosing the Right Yard Ramp for Your Application
Choosing the right portable yard ramp depends on how you will be using it. Looking for a permanent loading area or do you require a portable loading ramp? What is the maximum weight that your lift trucks will be transporting? (Don’t forget to include the weight of the lift truck.) Do you require dock-to-ground access or ground-level access to railcars and trucks? YARD RAMP Site has been manufacturing yard ramps for over 60 years and our staff is available to consult with you on the best solution for your loading application.
