Drop Deck Trailer

Drop Deck (Step Deck) Trailer Flooring

A drop deck, or step deck, is a flatbed with two deck heights: a short upper deck over the gooseneck and a lower main deck that steps down behind it. The lower deck sits closer to the ground so it can carry taller loads within legal height limits, and each deck level has its own flooring needs.

The lower deck is typically laid with narrow-face hardwood T-boards that fit tight against the beam spacing, while the upper deck and high-load zones take full-sawn rough boards. We stock Apitong (Keruing) T-boards in roughly 3-inch and 4-inch net faces, plus Apitong and Angelim Pedra full-sawn boards from 2x6 to 2x12.
