Northern Horse Equipment Heavy-Duty Trailer Steps
Northern Horse Equipment's Heavy-Duty Trailer Steps are engineered for maximum load capacity and rugged durability, using reinforced steel construction and a thick powder-coat finish to withstand daily use with large breeds and heavy traffic. Technically, they offer the best raw strength among these options and are priced competitively for long-term value, though their weight can increase trailer tongue load and fuel use compared with lighter aluminum units like SafeTack. For operations that prioritize strength and a conservative price-per-year of service, Northern’s heavy-duty steps are the practical market leader for demanding applications.

Equine Comfort Systems ProStep Fixed Ramp
The Equine Comfort Systems ProStep Fixed Ramp emphasizes horse ergonomics and safety with a shallow, continuous incline, cushioned high-grip surface, and vibration-damping mounting—features designed to reduce stress and slips during loading. Technically this fixed ramp differs from multi-step solutions by improving animal compliance and lowering injury risk, a benefit that can translate to lower veterinary and downtime costs despite higher initial purchase and installation expenses. Compared with platform-style steps, ProStep is the better choice when horse comfort and behavioral loading improvements are the primary objectives.
