Winter can be a beautiful season, but it also brings its fair share of challenges, especially when it comes to keeping your driveway or business premises clear of snow and ice. Whether you're a homeowner looking to tackle your residential driveway or a business owner responsible for maintaining a commercial property, investing in a snowplow can make your life significantly easier. However, before you rush into buying one, it's essential to understand your options and choose the right type of snowplow for your specific needs. From hitch-mounted snowplows to custom mount options, it’s a big decision. This guide will help you decide which snowplow is right for you.
Hitch-Mounted Snowplows
DK2’s hitch-mounted snowplows are easier to mount on your vehicle and fit most light trucks and SUVs. You control the electric winch’s lifting and lowering of the blade with a wireless remote from inside your warm vehicle. There are three available blade locking positions: straight, angled right, and angled left. DK2’s snowplows allow you to quickly and effectively remove snow from your driveway or small parking lot. These plows slide into a 2” front mount receiver for easy removal and storage, which results in less wear and tear on the snowplow and your vehicle.
Each snowplow is shipped in a single carton complete with:
- hardened steel cutting edge scraper
- rubber snow deflector
- polymer-wrapped wire rope plow markers
- skid shoes
- castor kit for easy storage
- a 3,000 lb wireless electric winch
- a set of blade stiffeners for added strength by creating a 3-point connection
For all of this, plus an upgraded electric actuator lift mechanism, shop the DK2 Hitch-Mounted Elite Snowplows. No need to keep shopping for the best hitch-mounted snowplow. You’ve found it.
Custom-Mounted Snowplows
While hitch-mounted snowplows are easier to mount, custom-mount plow kits have a stronger connection to your vehicle. DK2’s custom-mounted snowplows mount onto a vehicle-specific custom mount kit, providing a stronger connection to your vehicle and a more reliable plowing experience. Whether you are looking for snowplows for trucks, a Jeep Wrangler, or another truck or SUV, you’ll find the specific custom-mounting kit at DK2.
All DK2 Custom-Mounted Snowplows ship in a single carton complete with:
- hardened steel cutting edge scraper
- rubber snow deflector
- polymer-wrapped wire rope plow markers
- skid shoes
- castor kit for easy storage
- a 3,000 lb wireless electric winch
**Please note that these snowplow kits do not include your vehicle-specific custom mount kit - all custom mount kits are sold separately in the DK2 parts section.**
Like the hitch-mounted snowplows, for an upgraded electric actuator lift mechanism, shop the DK2 Custom-Mounted Elite Snowplows.
