The short version

THESE TRAILERS ARE EQUIPPED WITH A GATE LATCH RELEASE HANDLE LOCATED ON THE OUTSIDE, TO BE REACHED THROUGH A WINDOW WHILE INSIDE THE TRAILER SHOULD THE GATE BECOME CLOSED. DUE TO FACTORS SUCH AS ARM LENGTH, SOME USERS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REACH THE OUTSIDE HANDLE ONCE INSIDE.
PERSONAL INJURY CAN OCCUR SHOULD SOMEONE BECOME TRAPPED WITHIN THE TRAILER.
SNAKE RIVER WILL CONTACT OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSTALL A HANDLE THAT IS ACCESSIBLE FROM INSIDE THE TRAILER, free of charge.
