Five Star Folding Aluminum Arch Ramp Pair | Loading Ramps for Trucks & Trailers
A pair of arched loading ramps that fold end-to-end for easy carrying and storage—a real advantage at the longer lengths, where a one-piece ramp gets unwieldy. You get the same frame structure as Five Star's standard arch ramps, built in halves and joined with Five Star's own hinges. They aren't bought-in parts: Five Star machines them from the same high-quality aluminum plate and bar as the ramps themselves, so the hinge is as durable as the rest of the ramp.
The arch profile reduces the angle where the ramp meets your truck bed or trailer, helping prevent the belly scraping and high-centering that low-clearance equipment is prone to—golf carts, race cars, zero-turn mowers, garden tractors, and other rolling stock that sits low between the axles. The same geometry is what makes it work as a snowblower ramp for truck loading: a walk-behind snowblower's auger housing and skid shoes sit inches off the ground, and the arched transition keeps them from catching where a straight ramp meets the tailgate.
Built from tempered, aircraft-grade aluminum, the pair stays light enough to position and set up by hand while resisting the rust and corrosion that affect steel ramps in wet and outdoor conditions. Each ramp is MIG welded in fixtures by Five Star Manufacturing's certified welders in Crane, Missouri, where the company has built aluminum ramps in the USA since 1984.

Choosing the right size
Sold as a pair—each ramp supports one side of your equipment. Available in multiple lengths, widths, and load ratings so you can match the set to your equipment and loading height:
-
Lengths: 7 ft 4 in, 8 ft, 9 ft, and 10 ft
-
Widths: 12 in and 16 in
-
Load capacity: 1,500 lb or 3,000 lb per pair (distributed)
A longer ramp creates a lower, safer loading angle—helpful for taller tailgates, trailer decks, and lower-clearance equipment. Five Star recommends 16-inch-wide ramps for lengths over 7 feet, which covers this entire range; the wider deck gives more margin for tire placement and reduces the chance of driving off the edge. The full width of each tire should fit within the width of the ramp. Always select a load rating higher than the full (wet) weight of your equipment, including attachments, cargo, and operator.
