Ramps gates doors pj trailer parts carries all the original doors gates and ramps that are manufactured by pj trailers. My new 7x20 i opted for the ramp doors after much debate. It does suck though needing so much room behind vs having the barn doors when you want to sneak in for tools or gear bags etc and not want to put the entire ramp down. But when we have to run out and get something the ramp just sits in there.

We use the ramp to unload all the tools when getting to the job. You really would not need additional parts other than bolts to mount it in the trailer. I m glad i went ramp on a trailer this big. To create barn doors out of your ramp door you will need hinges and a latch.

Some track home neighborhoods are hard to park without blocking a neighbors driveway.
