What gap should be left between cleats on a barrow ramp for wheelbarrow tyres?

Leaving a gap of 100mm between cleats on a barrow ramp is ideal for accommodating wheelbarrow tyres. This spacing allows the wheelbarrow tyres to fit securely without getting stuck, while also ensuring that the ramp provides enough traction for safe maneuverability. Adequate spacing is essential for the performance of the wheelbarrow because it facilitates smooth rolling over the cleats, helping to prevent damage to both the wheelbarrow and the ramp. Properly placed cleats also enhance stability when moving loads, allowing the operator to navigate the ramp with confidence. The 100mm gap is a well-established standard that balances functionality and safety in typical construction or landscaping tasks where wheelbarrows are frequently used.
