Load securing
Lawrence David offer a wide variety of Load Securing Options – ranging from our industry-leading ArmourSheet ‘Plus’ Curtains, through to Internal Net Systems and more. We believe that by understanding your operation, we can recommend a load securing system that will allow you to get the job done.
Unique Pillar-less Construction
Lawrence David’s Pillar-less Curtainsider has been engineered to offer maximum loading and unloading access. The body follows the slope of the trailer so there is no increase in the overall height of the vehicle and because there are no pillars, it is easier, safer and quicker to load and unload along the full length of the trailer.
All Bolted Construction
Our bodies are modular and built using ‘All Bolted Construction’. This has proven to increase the life of the trailers and makes them easier to repair as time passes. You simply unbolt the damaged part and bolt on a new one – it couldn’t be simpler.
Flexibly Mounted Front Bulkhead
All Bolted Construction’ allows us to mount the bulkhead flexibly. This increases the life of the trailer without compromising strength or quality of the final product.
Galvanised & Pre-finished Components
We pride ourselves on the quality of our finish and aim to offer the ultimate protection against the elements and eliminate rust by using galvanised and pre-finished components.
Stainless Steel Lawrence David Dual Locking Hands-Free Buckles
Originally patented by Lawrence David, these buckles are now standard throughout the industry. They are safer to use, stronger and easier to use than previous iterations.
Aerodynamic Front Deflector Option
We offer a variety of Aerodynamic options on all our builds. Not only do they help to reduce fuel consumption, they provide an alternate location to stow your straps and improve the aesthetics on your body.
Multiple Rear Closure Options
Your operation dictates our solutions. Depending on the cargo, we offer a variety of rear closure options to suit – from barn doors, for unbroken brand identity, to a cantilever tail-lift with or without a top-flap.
Full 3D Solid Modelling & Design
Our 3D Solid Modelling software gives us total control over the components used to build our bodies, so we know the parts fit right the first time. We manufacture most components ourselves – quality comes guaranteed.
Coupling Options
At Lawrence David we offer three types of coupling – Fixed, Sliding or our exclusive Curved Coupling. If you care about getting the most out of your trailers, we recommend the Curved Coupling – designed with health, safety and efficiency in mind.
Tail-lift Options
Depending on your operational requirements, we offer a variety of tail-lifts that will help you on the road. We work with most manufacturers and can fit tuck-away, slider, cantilever or column tail-lifts as required.
