Minimize downtime with heavy-duty commercial welding. Eckharts provides custom ladder racks, 5th wheel hitches, goosenecks, and fleet services for contractors and work trucks.
Downtime is lost money
From heavy-duty ladder racks to 5th wheel and Gooseneck hauling, we keep your fleet on the road with industrial-grade fabrication.
The problem
In the commercial world, equipment abuse is normal. Pre-fab racks from catalogs often crack under heavy loads of lumber or pipe. Generic hitches bend when a driver jackknifes a trailer.
When a rack breaks or a hitch fails, your truck is in the shop, and your crew is standing around. You can't afford "residential grade" gear on a job site.
The Eckharts SOlution
We have been serving local businesses since 1944. We know that work trucks need to be over-engineered. We use heavier gauge steel and deeper welds than the factory standard because we know exactly what you’re going to put these trucks through.
Fleet Reliability
We standardize your hitches and wiring so any trailer in your fleet fits any truck.
Custom Utility
Need a rack that holds a 40ft ladder and a conduit pipe? We build it to your exact specs.
Safety, Above All
We ensure your 5th wheels and Goosenecks are rated correctly for your payload, keeping you legal and safe.

"I've had at least 5 or 6 hitches, 2 trailer rewires and 2 tow bars done at Eckharts on Sepulveda. Their work has always been excellent. I highly recommend them."
