Hey Jack,

If you're talking about a transition plate then you'll want the etrailer Enclosed Trailer Transition Plate # e32JR. This can be installed on either end of the ramp to help make the transition onto easier or at the hinge of the ramp to ease the transition from the ramp door to the trailer. These plates can expand or retract to fit 4' to 8-1/2' wide trailer ramps. They're very heavy duty and super easy to install, especially with Jake's installation video which I've attached below.
