Supports & Stability Devices for Trailers

    Stable stand on different surfaces

    Suitable support solutions for securely parking your trailer

    Supports and stability devices ensure a parked trailer is reliably stabilised. Especially on uneven or sloping ground, height differences can be equalised and unwanted trailer movement can be reduced. This helps support a stable stand during transport stops or long stationary periods.

    AL-KO VT offers various solutions for different trailers and requirements. Depending on the area of use, corner steadies as well as swivelling and fixed support feet are available.

    AL-KO VT supports – your benefits

    Suitable solutions for different requirements

    Your benefits at a glance:

    • Stable stand: Supports provide secure stabilisation of the trailer when parked.
    • Compensation for uneven ground: Depending on the model, supports can level out differences in ground height.
    • Different load ranges: Various solutions are available for both smaller and heavier trailers.
    • Operation tailored to requirements: Depending on the model, the support can be adjusted via hand grip, crank or detachable crank handle.
    • Various design types: Corner steadies as well as fixed and swivelling support feet enable you to choose the right option for each specific application.

    Corner steadies

    Stability and height compensation for different parking surfaces

    Corner steadies make it possible to compensate for uneven ground and provide stable support for the trailer. Operation is via a removable crank on the hexagon socket, so that the supports can be wound down according to the ground height.

    The Winterhoff corner steadies are designed for different trailer models. Depending on the version, they are intended for trailers with a permissible gross weight of up to 1,800 or 2,000 kg when using four supports.

    Swivelling support feet

    Flexible adjustment to different ground conditions

    Swivelling support feet combine a space-saving design with flexible height compensation. Thanks to their swivel and winding functions, they can be adjusted to different ground conditions and help to provide a stable stand for the trailer even on uneven surfaces.

    Depending on the model, operation is via a hexagon socket or a crank. The swivelling SF-60 support feet are designed for a static support load of up to 1,300 kg per support.

    Fixed support feet

    A straightforward solution for additional stability

    Fixed support feet provide a simple way to add extra stability to a parked trailer. Via the support tube, they can be used universally on different trailers and, depending on the version, can be operated via a hand grip or integrated crank handle.

    With a static support load of up to 150 kg per support, the available versions are particularly suitable for smaller to medium-sized trailers. For applications requiring higher support loads, swivelling support feet or corner steadies are available.

    Which support is suitable for my trailer?

    Trailer, support load and area of use determine the selection

    Which stability device is suitable depends primarily on the trailer, its weight, the required support load and the intended use.

    Corner steadies are recommended when you want to compensate for uneven ground and stabilise larger trailers. Swivelling support feet combine a high static support load with flexible adaptation to different ground heights. Fixed support feet are a straightforward solution for smaller to medium-sized trailers and applications with lower required support loads.

    In addition to the permissible load, when choosing a support, you should also consider the installation situation, dimensions and operation of the respective support.

    Frequently asked questions about supports for trailers

    Supports stabilise the trailer when parked. Depending on the version, they can also compensate for height differences on uneven ground, thus contributing to a safe and stable stand.

    This depends, among other factors, on the trailer weight, required support load, installation situation and area of application. For higher loads, for example, corner steadies or swivelling support feet are suitable, while fixed support feet offer a simple solution for lower support loads.

    Fixed support feet are positioned via the support tube and provide uncomplicated additional stabilisation. Swivelling models also feature a swivel and winding function, making them easier to adapt to different ground conditions.
