I've been looking for extensions for the ramp gates on a dp120 for a while now (the ones that hooknon the sides when not using them), only found a few and they're other end of the country, looking for a sheep deck divider gate too.

Anyone know where I could find them? All websites I find have all the spares and brackets, but not the gates themselves.

Would they be a pain to shut in a hurry to stop the stock coming back out of the trailer, you would have to unhook the extension before shutting the main ramp gate by which time the animals have turned and legged it back out the trailer.

Why not pop in to Matt Plowman and ask him to make you something? Be better thought out too............

With the sheep deck divider gate it`s worth making certain you get the right one. I once got one for 5` wide IW trailer and the "knowledgeable" dealer gave me the wrong one (and took some telling too!!!) - there`d been an update to the trailer ...
If ordering from an IW dealer give them the trailer serial number when placing order.
