    From the Wild West to the Midwest, Austin Hardware® knows a thing or two about horse trailers, and we work with some of the top horse trailer manufacturers in the business. Your horse and your trailer are both major investments for you, and you want to be sure you can enjoy your invested dollars while keeping your horse safe and comfortable during transport. Horse trailers come in various options, sizes, and investment levels. There are many different options, and Austin Hardware® works with suppliers to some of the top trailer manufacturers in the U.S., providing top-quality hardware, products, and services. 

    Horse Safety

    Horses are both an investment and a part of the family; whether they show horses or working farm animals, you want to be sure they are safe, comfortable and well-protected during transport. The right trailer setup ensures that your horses arrive safely and uninjured. This means it is critical to have the right size trailer to accommodate your horse, as well as one with all the features you need. Some important features for safety and comfort are tie-downs, ventilation, and proper flooring. Depending on how custom you want to build your trailer, there are many options for horse comfort and safety. 

    Towing Safety

    When you're hauling anything, safety is key. While pulling a lot of weight, you want to be sure that you follow all road safety rules and regulations. This not only keeps you safe, but it also protects you from liability. In addition, if you are hauling livestock, you want to be sure that your animals are safe at all times. Make sure they are secured and have proper ventilation. You can also be sure that your animals are comfortable during transport by ensuring your trailer is in suitable working conditions, and unnecessary noise and road vibration are avoided. Austin carries a diverse line of safety-related products as well as hardware for trailers and towing.

    Safe Assist

    The SAFE ASSIST is a NEW and revolutionary product from Austin Hardware®.

    The patent pending lightweight, heavy-duty ramp door assist eliminates the physical strain of opening and closing heavy ramp doors by rendering the door virtually weightless. All that’s required is the strength of a single finger throughout the complete motion.

    Unlike traditional ramp assists, the design of SAFE ASSIST eliminates 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.
