Safety and reliability have gone international. UK’s Albert Jagger, a leading manufacturer and distributor of commercial vehicle parts and fittings, has recently completed the integration of Austin Hardware’s Safe Assist - Ramp Door Assist - on a beavertail type vehicle at MIS Conversions, a leading fleet conversion specialist in the UK.
From Albert Jagger: “The successful integration of Safe Assist was a collaborative effort between Albert Jagger and MIS Conversions, from assessment through to installation. The project not only improved the efficiency and safety of beavertail vehicles but also reinforced the commitment of both companies to providing quality solutions to the transport industry.” (www.albertjagger.co.uk)
What is Safe Assist? The NEW Safe Assist is a cable-less, concealed ramp door assist by Austin Hardware® ready to revolutionize the trailer industry by rendering the heavy trailer ramp doors virtually weightless.
The lightweight, heavy-duty ramp door assist eliminates the physical strain of opening and closing heavy ramp doors.
Unlike traditional ramp assists, SAFE ASSIST is fully concealed to remove the need for dangerous cables that can snap or create a tripping hazard.
Our lightweight aluminum design is non-corrosive and maintains balanced weight distribution through the full range of motion, meaning the door won't slam when it reaches the fully open or closed positions.
SAFE ASSIST also has a fully enclosed and concealed design to prevent corrosion over time, contributing to greater longevity and improved aesthetics.
Key Benefits Include:
- Eliminates dangerous cables
- Eliminates the physical strain and danger of a heavy ramp door
- Maintains balanced weight distribution through the full range of motion
- 100% Concealed
- Adjustable
- Constructed of non-corrosive, heavy-duty aluminum
- Lightweight
As you can see, there are many benefits to Safe Assist. We are ready to help revolutionize the trailer industry with our new, intelligent, user-friendly design.
From the U.S. to the UK and beyond, our latest partnership with Albert Jagger is just the start of our goal to outfit trailers of all types with this safe and revolutionary product.
