Loading ramps for commercial vehicles
Every loading and unloading operation counts. When these tasks are repeated several times a day, having a loading ramp designed for light commercial vehicles (LCVs) makes all the difference. You can load faster, minimize physical strain, and reduce the risk of accidents for both your teams and your equipment.
Altec France offers a complete line of loading ramps for light commercial vehicles to meet the needs of professionals in the freight transport and logistics industries.
Our line of professional loading ramps
RRK Ramp, the fixed, articulated, foldable ramp
The RRK ramp is a fixed, hinged ramp that folds into two sections against the floor of your commercial vehicle. It deploys in just a few seconds thanks to its gas strut assistance.
Technical specifications:
• Load capacity: up to 1,000 kg (max. load)
• Aluminum frame
• Perforated, non-slip tread surface
• Gas strut assistance for effortless operation
• Folds into two sections to clear access to the cargo area
• 40 mm side edges to guide the wheels
• Ideal for: transport companies, delivery drivers, and tradespeople making multiple loads per day
RDD Ramp, the 180° swivel ramp
The RRD ramp swivels 180° to stow inside your van after use. This unique design provides full access to the rear doors while keeping the ramp readily available.
Technical Specifications:
• Load capacity: up to 450 kg and 1,000 kg with the optional feet (max load)
• Swivels 180° for interior storage
• Gas strut-assisted operation
• Aluminum construction
• Perforated, non-slip surface
• Easy to use on a daily basis
• Ideal for: professionals who need constant access to the rear doors and frequently load and unload
• Uses include wheelchairs, lawn mowers, floor scrubbers, etc.
AOS-F Ramp, the foldable and collapsible ramp
The AOS-F ramp combines the advantages of a fixed ramp (immediate availability) with optimized loading space. Its two-part folding system reduces its footprint without compromising its stability or load capacity.
Technical Specifications:
• Compact folding system
• Capacity: 1,020 kg per pair and 975 kg per unit
• Aluminum frame
• Preserves available space in the rear of the vehicle
• Permanent access to the rear doors
• Ideal for: professionals who need to optimize cargo space while keeping a ramp available at all times
• Applications: lawn mowers, ATVs, tracked vehicles, rubber tracks, etc.
How to Choose the Right Loading Ramp for a Commercial Vehicle?
Not all loading ramps are suitable for the same applications. To find the model best suited to your commercial vehicle, several technical criteria must be taken into account:
Maximum load capacity
The first criterion concerns the weight of the equipment to be loaded. Pallet jacks, floor scrubbers, material handling carts, and hand trucks place different stresses on the ramp.
Altec France’s professional aluminum ramps (RRK, RRD, AOS-F) can support loads of up to 1,000 kg (maximum load) depending on the model, and their lightweight design makes them easy to handle.
Ramp dimensions
Length and width directly affect ease of use and safety. A longer ramp reduces the slope and makes it easier to lift equipment from the ground onto the vehicle’s floor.
Our (AOS) models are ideal for hand trucks, lawn mowers, pallet jacks, or equipment with narrow wheels. Ramps with a wide surface (RRK, RRD) provide greater stability for larger equipment.
The Loading Ramp and the Loading Threshold
A ramp that is too steep makes maneuvering difficult and requires more effort. The choice of ramp length depends directly on the height of the loading threshold and the floor of your commercial vehicle.
All of our ramps are designed to safely bridge the height difference, regardless of the configuration of your van or commercial
Which loading ramp is right for your business?
Do you load and unload several times a day?
→ Choose a fixed ramp: RRK or RRD
For carriers, delivery drivers, tradespeople, or technicians who regularly access their loading area, the RRK or RRD ramps offer the greatest ease of use. Always ready for use, they deploy in just a few seconds thanks to gas struts.
Do you transport heavy equipment?
→ Choose a ramp with a wide surface: RRK, RRD, or AOS-F
Loading heavy equipment (floor scrubbers, electric pallet jacks, carts, small machinery) requires a ramp that provides stability, traction, and a high load capacity.
Our wide-surface models make it easier to drive onto the ramp while ensuring safe maneuvering thanks to their perforated, non-slip coating and 40 mm side edges.
Need to optimize your loading space?
→ Choose a foldable ramp: AOS-F
The AOS-F ramp folds up to preserve available space in the rear of the vehicle while remaining readily accessible at all times. It combines immediate availability with optimized loading space.
Why Choose Altec France Loading Ramps?

Aluminum makes everyday tasks easier. Our handrails are easy to move, install, and handle, reducing physical effort with every use.
Strength and Durability
Despite their light weight, the RRK, RRD, and AOS-F handrails offer excellent mechanical strength and maintain their performance over time, even with heavy use.
Corrosion Resistance
Aluminum is naturally resistant to corrosion, allowing for outdoor use without requiring any special treatment or demanding maintenance.
Enhanced Safety
All our ramps feature perforated, slip-resistant walking surfaces that ensure optimal traction during loading and unloading, enhancing the safety of material-handling operations.
Frequently Asked Questions - Loading Ramps for Light-Duty Commercial Vehicles (LDCVs)
It all depends on the weight of the equipment you're transporting. Altec France's professional ramps (RRK, RRD, AOS-F) offer capacities of up to 1,000 kg (maximum load) depending on the model.
Yes. That's one of the main advantages of the AOS ramp. A single removable ramp can be used on multiple utility vehicles, provided it is compatible with their loading heights.
The RRK ramp folds into two sections against the vehicle floor, while the RRD ramp pivots 180° to stow inside the van. Both models feature gas strut assistance and have the same load capacity. The choice depends on your storage preferences and the configuration of your commercial vehicle.
Because they combine lightness, strength, and durability. Altec France’s aluminum handrails (RRK, RRD, AOS-F) are easier to handle on a daily basis, are naturally corrosion-resistant, and maintain their performance for many years.
Altec France loading ramps are available in various sizes: lengths ranging from 2 to 3 meters, with standard or extra-wide widths depending on the model (RRK, RRD, AOS-F).
The installation of a fixed RRK or RRD ramp must be performed by a qualified professional (body shop technician or vehicle outfitter). The ramp is secured to the vehicle's floor or chassis using anchor points designed to withstand the dynamic loads that occur during loading.
Altec France ramps (RRK, RRD, AOS-F) are available through our network of professional distributors.
