Direktbouw Other models

The register lists 22 versions with kerb weights from 950 to 2,030 kg, gross vehicle weights from 1,350 to 3,500 kg and widths from 2,170 to 2,200 mm.

The narrow width span of just three centimetres shows a consistently standardised programme within the permitted road width, typical of transport trailers in commercial use. As a collective brand without a named range, Direktbouw sits in the register alongside other manufacturers of similarly standardised commercial trailers.

When buying used, check above all the condition and load capacity of the axles, the function of the brake system, corrosion on the frame and load platform, and the condition of the lashing points. On the multi-axle WS and WT versions, axle alignment and even tyre wear are worth an additional look, and on the Schaftwagen model, the condition of the body and its hinges. Parts for axles and brakes at this payload class are usually sourced through specialist commercial-vehicle workshops.
