Bateson Deauville~~The Deauville is our most popular front unload horse trailer, with a generous 7' 3" headroom allowing horses up to 17 hands to be transported. The centrally hinged division is very easy to operate and allows plenty of space for entry and exit. The Deauville has a double internal saddle rack and cover that can remain in place during unloading. The larger front window incorporating a coupling mirror, combined with the white interior gives a very light and airy environment and allows a view of the horse during transit.

The standard rear ramp has a steel top door that lifts on gas struts; alternatively the trailer is available with the "Boston" option of American doors with two hinged ventilator flaps and short pull out ramp.~Bateson Deauville|Bateson Deauville|Bateson Derby|Bateson Derby|Bateson Ascot|Bateson Ascot|~931~949~~

Bateson Ascot~The Space Treka 'L' has all the specifications of a Space Treka 'M' but it is designed to carry horses up to 18 hh.~The Ascot trailer has a similar capacity to the Deauville, but has a lockable saddle cupboard inside the front with bridle hooks and a lift out tray. It has a very smart and distinctive appearance with the aerodynamic nose cone and stylish mudguards incorporating triple rear lamps. This top of the range model is also available with either a ramp door or optional "Boston" doors similar to the Deauville.~Bateson Ascot|Bateson Ascot|Bateson Derby|Bateson Derby|Bateson Deauville|Bateson Deauville|~931~936~~

Our Price includes Delivery, Plastic Rot Proof Floor, Spare Wheel, Hitch Lock, Interior Light, Coupling Mirror and VAT.

The chassis and frames are all hot dipped galvanised steel with a semi-monocoque construction allowing a low floor height and a low centre of gravity also providing increased ground clearance, less unladed weight and an extra 3" headroom within the same overall height. The sides are panelled with specially manufactured glass fibre/plywood laminated panels with galvanised steel kicking panels and vacuum formed flexible padding panels. The floor is manufactured with a 22cm wide 2mm galvanised steel section down both sides where maximum strength and rot resistance is required.The centre section is a specialist composite floor panel that is strong, solid and silent and does not corrode. The stalls have two 18mm removable rubber floor mats that lift out to allow the floor to dry during washing and for periodic inspection. The front floor section and ramps are bonded with reinforced non-slip rubber matting.

The roof is heat reflecting white plastic coated galvanised steel with a moulded glass fibre front section and a large vacuum formed window incorporating a ventilator. Ventilation is also provided in each side and over the rear doors. Divisions are galvanised steel with flexible padding panels and reinforced rubber kicking skirts. They are hinged on a central post on all front unload models. The front and rear bars are fully padded and adjustable for height and remain attached to the division, out of the way of the horses during loading and unloading.

All trailers have a high standard specification and are fully equipped with a unique coupling mirror, which allows the trailer hitch to be seen by the driver during coupling eliminating miss alignment, and damaged bumpers. Interior lamp, hitch lock, internal and external tying rings and spare wheel are all standard. A saddle rack and cover is fitted to Deauville Models and a lockable tack cupboard in Ascot Models. American style rear doors with a pull out ramp are available on front unload models as an option. These are very common in Europe and becoming more popular in the UK, being easier to load and making the trailer more versatile. Full width front and rear bars are also available for use with the divisions removed. A mare and foal can be transported at the owner's discretion but extra security should be provided for the groom's door which is designed to open from inside for safety and convenience. Other options include a hinged head divider panel, an easy to fit wheel clamp and the graphics stripe available in yellow, red, green and blue.
