HDXL

Introducing our Our HDXL Step-A-Side® ladder system, It is designed for both standard and newer aluminum and hybrid trailers.

As drivers you know flatbed loads are most often loaded by crane (ground or overhead) or from the side by a fork truck. Too often this environment with no dock or other easy access to the trailer deck for the Driver to perform load securement or tarping. Moreover, mounting or dismounting a flatbed has never been easy under the best conditions.

To address these scenarios, Mike Hailey invented the “ORIGINAL” Step-A-Side® ladder system seen here. It is exclusively licensed and manufactured in the USA by Transportation Innovation Products, Inc. Affordable, Strong, Compact, yet lightweight, the Step-A-Side® ladder provides an easy and safer way to mount and dismount your trailer.

Our HDXL Step-A-Side® ladder system is designed for both standard and newer aluminum and hybrid trailers. It is 8″ longer & 3″ wider than the standard ladder and has an additional rung. This makes it easier to climb aboard and effortless to use.
