Ligthart – other trailers: collective page of the Dutch heritage maker from Schagerbrug outside the named ranges, from light trailer to heavy semi-trailer, 1.3 to 48 tonnes gross weight
This page gathers Ligthart trailers and semi-trailers that the register could not assign to a named range. The Dutch family firm Gebr. Ligthart of Schagerbrug in North Holland has built vehicle bodies continuously since 1875 and is one of Europe's oldest still-producing trailer and semi-trailer makers; the two- and four-digit designations such as 1018 or 1218 combine, by the maker's logic, axle-load and length figures with codes for the body type – for example BA for a construction version, SA for a semi-trailer and SZ for special builds. Alongside semi-trailers the works also builds low-loaders, car transporters and recovery vehicles.

The register lists here 104 versions with unladen weights from 480 to 33,500 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 48,000 kg, lengths from 5,550 to 14,040 mm and widths from 1,710 to 2,600 mm.
The wide span from light trailers to heavy semi-trailers reflects Ligthart's niche strategy, which unlike the big series makers Krone or Schmitz Cargobull relies heavily on one-off and small-series builds for recovery services, special transport and construction site work.
When buying used, on the light trailers what matters is the condition of the axle, lighting and coupling; on the heavy semi-trailers, corrosion on the frame and side members, the condition of the air suspension, the braking system (usually EBS), and on low-loaders the condition of the ramps and hydraulics. Spare parts for common axle and brake components are available through the general trailer parts trade, works-specific parts directly from Ligthart.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
