Question:

Does the width you show include the handle? My under trailer ramp storage slots are 15.125w x 4inch high. My current steel ramps are 13.75w x 3inch high.

The measurement on the Aluminum Car Hauler Ramp Set part # 288-07502 does not include the handle. They are 14.5" outside of ramp to outside of ramp. There is an additional 1.5" of width in the handle area getting to 16".

The handles can be removed if that will help them fit in the storage area.

I do not have anything with that type of capacity that is narrower.
