Our 3 Horse Gooseneck Trailer Design is Safer Than a 2+1 Horse Trailer

The 2+1 horse trailer has been gaining popularity in recent years, but falls short of our 3 horse gooseneck trailer. Our trailer has a shorter wheelbase for easier towing along with a much safer stall configuration.

Here are the top problems with other 3 horse gooseneck trailers:

  1. Cramped Third Horse: The 2+1 model has a small square stall for the third horse which may not work well for larger animals like Warmbloods.
  2. Limited Access: Traditional 3-horse slant load trailers only have one narrow entry point at the back of the trailer because of the stationary back tack storage.
  3. More Difficult Towing: Most 2+1 horse trailers have a longer wheelbase which means it’s harder to tow and maneuver in parking areas.
  4. No Reverse Facing Option: 2+1 horse trailers don’t come with a rear-facing option which horses find more comfortable and calming.

The 2+1 trailer (top) comes with a cramped front box stall.  Next, a traditional slant load trailer (middle) has a stationary rear tack which leaves only one narrow escape door.  Compare those to the much safer Double D Trailers 3 horse gooseneck trailer slant load (bottom) with two wide openings and moveable SafeTack compartment.

Why Ours is Better and Safer

The Double D Trailer 3 horse gooseneck trailer has stalls that are better able to accommodate large show horses.  Plus, the trailer can still be configured to create a front ‘box’ stall inside the trailer.  Use this convenient area to groom, tack up, or even just let your horse hang out on show day.

Better Towing with the SafeTack 3 Horse Gooseneck Trailer

Nobody likes broken glass on their back truck windows! 

That's why our 3 horse gooseneck enclosed trailer is ideal for towing with an aerodynamic V-shape nose design that eliminates turning issues common with other gooseneck horse trailers. Plus, our light-weight, super-strong Z-Frame design can be hauled by almost any half ton pick-up truck. If you are unsure if your truck and hitch are rated to haul this size trailer, ask our experts. We can help you figure it out.

Our SafeTack gooseneck horse trailer is designed to make efficient use of floor space for a shorter overall length than many other brands. This optimizes your visibility and maneuverability during towing without compromising the comfort of your horses.

This trailer is designed to provide a quiet ride for the horses so that they arrive at your destination calm and ready to go.

The patented SafeTack design makes this an extremely safe 3 horse slant trailer. Gooseneck trailers with the SafeTack design make loading and transportation easier for both you and your horses. Our unique slant load configuration makes excellent use of your trailer’s floor space while still allowing each horse room to feel comfortable. his design makes loading and transportation easier for both you and your horses. Our unique slant load configuration makes excellent use of your trailer’s floor space while still allowing each horse room to feel comfortable.

And the SafeTack design makes loading a whole new experience — better and safer!

Problems with Other 3 Horse Trailer for Sale

In comparison, other horse trailers try to squeeze three horses side-by-side in a straight load configuration. Conventional slant load trailer designs have a dangerous stationary tack storage area in the rear corner of the trailer. This hazardous feature not only causes excess stress for nervous loaders, but it forces both horse and handler into a narrow space without room to maneuver.

More Space and Smarter Storage with the SafeTack 3 Horse Gooseneck

In contrast, our patented SafeTack design has an enclosed tack compartment that swings out like a second door. This leaves a wide, open trailer ramp for loading and unloading.

The SafeTack compartment also allows you to keep all your tack and grooming supplies separate from your own stuff, which you can store in the front sleeping quarters. There’s no reason your sweaty saddle blanket needs to be stored with your clean show outfit.

You may have heard that slant stalls are "too small" or "you can't get to all horses individually in case of an emergency."  Well, that may be true on most designs from other manufactures, but at Double D Trailers, we custom build your trailer to fit any size horse. In fact, you have the option to add footage to only one stall, two stalls or all three stalls depending on what size horses you plan to haul.

In addition, we make it a priority to provide safe loading and unloading options for each horse. Adding a double side ramp solves the dilemma of unloading each horse quickly in an emergency. It allows you to load from the side and haul your horses in a rear facing position if you so choose.

Check out the video below to watch a horse load with ease onto a SafeTack Reverse 3 Horse Gooseneck trailer:

 

Keep in mind you may want to include your ramp on the "off traffic" or ditch side in case you have to pull off and unload in hurry.

The Best in Safety and Durability

The safety features on this 3 horse gooseneck trailer are second to none. Once inside, your horses will enjoy a light and airy interior with tubular head dividers that combat your horses’ natural claustrophobia.

Some Additional Safety Features on This 3 Horse Trailer

  • The padded Z-Frame dividers are strong, durable, and surrounded by 1-inch-thick custom handmade padding to prevent scrapes and bruises.
  • The Z-Frame chassis is designed to be light but extremely strong – providing much more protection during an accident compared to an all aluminum gooseneck trailer.
  • Horse area roof vents provide fresh air during travel.
  • All chest chains have quick-release latches so you can let them down even with the horse’s full weight on top.
  • The interior has been designed to be ‘rattle-proof’ to minimize any excess noise that could add stress to your horse’s journey.
  • The 2x8” pressure treated pine flooring comes standard, but you may choose to upgrade to Rumber flooring, which minimizes road noise and reduces the heat coming through the floor to your horse’s delicate legs.
  • The SafeKick® wall system is designed to flex, not crack, when your horse kicks out. It protects the trailer from damage, but more importantly, it protects your horse from injury.
  • The interior galvalite skin provides more strength and durability than standard aluminum. Aluminum is thin, allowing an unruly horse to easily puncture the sheet, resulting in a leg injury.
  • The fiber composite SafeBump® roof is leak proof and will keep the interior of the trailer cool and dry.
  • The exterior skin is secured with our unique chemical bonding process so there are no rivets that can be vulnerable to weathering.
  • The outside running boards are made of aluminum for a sharp finish to your custom horse trailer.

The total result is a travel that will keep your horse safe, and that will hold up to the miles you put on it.
