DK2 5-ft x 7-ft Steel Utility Trailer with Ramp Gate ( 1639-lb Capacity ) 2491711

Description

The DK2 5-ft x 7-ft Steel Utility Trailer with Ramp Gate is a versatile single-axle trailer designed for hauling landscaping materials, lawn equipment, recreational gear, building supplies, firewood, tools, and general cargo.

Built from fully welded, heavy-duty tubular steel with a UV-resistant powder-coated finish, this utility trailer combines a strong construction with practical loading and unloading features. Its approximately 4.5-ft x 7.5-ft bed provides useful cargo space, while the rear drive-up ramp gate makes it easier to load wheeled equipment.

With a rated load capacity of 1,639 lbs., the DK2 MMT5X7-DUG is designed for a wide range of everyday hauling jobs. Its two-position dump-bed design also provides additional flexibility when unloading loose materials.

Heavy-Duty Steel Construction

The trailer features a fully welded tubular steel frame engineered for durability and everyday utility use. A UV-resistant powder-coated finish helps protect the steel surface from normal outdoor exposure.

The reinforced construction makes the trailer suitable for transporting equipment, materials, tools, landscaping supplies, and other cargo within its rated capacity.

5-ft x 7-ft Utility Trailer Size

The trailer is marketed as a 5-ft x 7-ft utility trailer, with a practical bed measuring approximately 4.5 ft x 7.5 ft.

The bed provides enough room for many common hauling applications while maintaining a relatively compact footprint.

When the front and rear load-bearing gates are lowered, the usable loading area can extend to nearly 11.58 ft, providing additional flexibility for longer items.

Drive-Up Rear Ramp Gate

One of the key features of the MMT5X7-DUG is its 40-inch expanded-mesh and tubular-steel rear ramp gate.

The drive-up gate makes loading wheeled equipment easier by creating a ramp between the ground and trailer bed. It can be useful for loading items such as:

• Lawn mowers
• Garden equipment
• ATVs and recreational equipment
• Wheelbarrows
• Snow blowers
• Hand trucks
• Landscaping equipment
• Other wheeled equipment

The front of the trailer also features a 24-inch load-bearing corrugated steel drop gate.

1,639-lb Load Capacity

The trailer has a listed 1,639-lb load capacity.

This makes it suitable for many household, landscaping, construction, maintenance, and recreational hauling applications.

Important: Always account for the weight of the cargo and comply with the trailer’s rated capacity, towing vehicle limits, hitch ratings, tire ratings, and applicable local regulations.

Two-Position Dump Bed

The MMT5X7-DUG includes a two-position axle-mounted dump-bed design with a quick-release lock pin.

This feature provides additional flexibility when loading and unloading loose materials and other cargo.

Reinforced Steel Floor

The trailer uses a corrugated reinforced steel floor panel with approximately 20 inches of ground clearance.

The steel floor provides a durable loading surface for general-purpose hauling and helps the trailer withstand regular use.

Single-Axle Design

The trailer is equipped with a solid square-tube cambered axle designed for stable towing and load support.

The single-axle configuration keeps the trailer relatively simple while providing useful hauling capability for everyday applications.

Highway-Rated Tires

The DK2 trailer uses 12-inch, 6-ply bias highway-rated tires.

The tires feature a 5 x 4.5-inch bolt pattern and are designed for road use when properly installed, inflated, loaded, and operated according to applicable requirements.

LED Lighting

For road visibility, the trailer includes quick-connect DOT LED lighting, side markers, and heavy-duty taillight protectors.

The lighting system is designed to provide the required trailer lighting functions when properly connected to a compatible tow vehicle.

2-Inch Ball Coupler

The DK2 MMT5X7-DUG uses an A-frame tow bar with a 2-inch ball coupler.

The listed hitch height is approximately 16 inches, helping provide compatibility with appropriate towing setups.

Always verify your vehicle’s hitch height, ball size, towing capacity, and electrical connection before towing.
