Trailer Walkway

[deek]

G'Day Raiders,

I have acquired a length of galvanised mesh about 3 metres long and about 300mm wide. The mesh has been dressed with angle around it so you don't take bark off your legs. What I would like to do with it is make a trailer walkway for my boat trailer. I don't know what is the best way of attaching something like this to the trailer. I don't want to weld it on. Any advice or suggestions on this would be appreciated.

Cheers

Can you get u bolts through the mesh that would then go around your cross beams?

Yep, U bolts - the only other method.

HI,

You can use these clips that they use on roofs of building to hold them down, its has one bolt in the middle and a small plate that hooks over two sections on the mesh and when tightened up sits pretty flush (hard to explain) if i'm on a roof that has them in the near future i'll get a photo of one but any commercial roofing company should sell them, CSR maybe.
