Load it.
Haul it. Dump it.
From hand-winched truck ramps to hydraulic stern doors, and from full hopper barges to bull-rail conversions, Sentinel builds the loading and unloading hardware around your job.
Ramps
Built to any size, attached or set-on-deck. Manual hand-winched or hydraulically actuated. Ideal for excavator, truck, and equipment loading.
Hopper Boxes
Dedicated hopper barge builds for dredging spoils, debris, silt, and mud. Or add bull rails to a Standard or Heavy Duty section to convert it to hopper duty.

Ramps & Hoppers FAQ
Direct answers about heavy deck barges, charter terms, and global delivery.
- Yes — most of our hopper builds are sized to accept clamshell and orange-peel grab unloading. We can also add splitter doors for direct dump scenarios.
- For loaded gravel trucks and excavators, keep the ramp angle below 12 degrees fully extended. We size the ramp length to your typical bank height and tide range.
