Tell us more about what kind you are looking for. Are you looking for a set you leave attached to the trailer or throw in the tow vehicle? Slide ins? You can copy existing ramps if you want to. I have a 24' trailer with ramps that stay attatched to the trailer. Will take a picture and send some specs of them if you are interested.

The "search" feature on this site will direct you to plenty of ideas-so many, it could be hard to sort through them all.

The link I posted makes mention of adding legs to ramps to help keep everything steady when loading and unloading. There were some posts in the safety forum about the unloading and loading process being the most dangerous part. You don't want the ramps to move or the trailer to move on you when loading or unloading a tractor. People have been killed....

^^ what he said^^
You could weld your own ramps for pretty cheap. You can have them attached like mine with legs on them. Or slide in /removable ramps and put adjustable or removable jacklegs on the rear of your trailer for support.
