The Top 5 Must-Have Trailer Accessories

1: Cage

Adding a cage to your trailer will give you a bunch of versatility and extra use. With safety and security benefits, a caged trailer can be a really valuable choice for tradies and businesses.

  • Safety and Security: a cage provides a physical safety barrier for the goods you are hauling in your trailer. It prevents items from falling out during transportation, keeping your cargo safely enclosed. This not only protects your goods, but it also minimises the chance of accidents or creating hazards on the road.
  • More Options: by adding a cage, you gain versatility in what you can carry. It may mean you can now carry loads of smaller items as they are easier to contain and secure within the cage, or even larger items as the cage gives you more vertical protection.
  • Easy Hauling: cages make it easier to transport goods. Not only do you have the extra protection and added space that a cage offers, but the sides of the cage also create attachment points for straps, bungee cords, or nets to further secure your cargo.

Here at Lucca, our trailer cages are designed to perfectly fit our range of Lucca trailers. Taking less than 10 minutes to install, you’ll have extra capacity and safety in no time. Made from sturdy hot-dip galvanised steel, they are long-lasting and strong.

2: Trailer Covers

Need to transport goods or materials that require protection from the weather, debris or prying eyes? Then, a tarpaulin trailer cover is the perfect choice.

  • Weather Protection: probably the most obvious benefit of a tarpaulin trailer cover is the protection it gives you from the weather. Rain, wind, sun and snow can all put your cargo at risk. But, a tarpaulin cover shields the cargo from moisture, keeping them dry, and preventing water damage and corrosion. This can prolong the life of goods that are hauled on a regular basis.
  • Security and Privacy: Having a cover over your trailer adds an extra layer of security by concealing the contents. It prevents potential theft or unauthorised access as it obstructs the view of what’s being transported, safeguarding valuable or sensitive items, and preventing tampering.
  • Debris Protection: Apart from the weather, a trailer cover will also give your goods protection from dirt, dust and debris. This is particularly useful when transporting things that you don’t want to get soiled like furniture, machinery, electronics or other sensitive items.

Trailer covers offer the most protection when they are professionally fitted to your trailer. Our range of tarpaulin trailer covers are specifically designed to fit the exact measurements of a Lucca trailer.

Made from sturdy canvas and 5x A-frame poles, you get safe and secure high-quality coverage. Once installed, the covers are easy to take on and off due to the velcro closure and eyelets. It will only take you a couple of minutes to secure and protect your load.

3: Trailer Lock

A towbar trailer lock is probably the simplest and most affordable way to give your trailer extra security.

  • Enhanced Security: The main function of a towbar trailer lock is to enhance the security of your trailer by preventing unauthorised access and deterring theft. It does this by physically locking the trailer to the towbar with a key lock closure. This lock makes it significantly more challenging for thieves to unhitch the trailer from your vehicle and also reduces the chance of your trailer accidentally detaching while towing.
  • Peace of Mind: Knowing that your trailer is secured with a reliable lock will give you the confidence to leave it unattended in public for short periods of time. It can also help you to feel more secure when your trailer is parked at a work site, in storage or at home.
  • Compatibility: Most towbar trailer locks come with a universal fitting, meaning you can swap and change them between trailers as and when needed.

Towbar trailer locks are quick and easy to install, protecting your trailer in a matter of seconds. Simply lock and unlock the fitting when needed for the ultimate versatile security solution. Strong and efficient, our trailer locks come with two keys and are suitable for a 7/8’ coupling.

4: Spare Wheel

There’s nothing worse than a flat tyre or experiencing tyre issues when you are towing. Luckily, if you have a spare trailer wheel on deck, you can quickly replace the damaged tyre and get back on the road without lengthy disruptions. This is really helpful if you happen to be travelling long distances or along one of NZ’s remote roads.

Instead of waiting for roadside assistance, you can minimise your downtime, restarting your journey as soon as the trailer is safe to go again. It adds a huge amount of convenience as you know you have the right wheel onboard, avoiding the need to source something in a hurry, preventing the potential of ending up with a sub-par product or the wrong size.

5: Ramps

Having ramps for your trailer can enhance its functionality, making it easier to load and transport a wide range of goods, equipment, or even vehicles.

  • Convenience: Ramps offer convenience, making loading and unloading more efficient and manageable. Whether you are loading something with wheels like an ATV, motorbike or lawnmower, or something on wheels with a trolley, ramps make the process safer and easier.
  • Accessibility: Some items are really difficult to lift onto a trailer manually, but ramps solve the problem. Able to wheel things on and off, you can transport a wider range of goods, vehicles and equipment.
  • Safety: Instead of trying to awkwardly lift something, ramps provide a safer loading and unloading experience. The stable surface reduces the risk of accidents and injuries to you, or damage to the goods you are trying to move. Using a ramp also saves time and energy, creating efficiency and eliminating the need for additional loading equipment.

At Lucca, our ramps are made from high quality materials, making them a safe option for all your loading needs. Designed to specifically fit the measurements of our Lucca trailers, they come in 4ft, 5ft and 6ft width options.
