I use a home-made system of planks that lock together with dowels. I made it out of some off-cuts of wood some years ago. Depending on the extra height needed I can use 1, 2, or 3 planks. Any more than that and I wouldn't want that pitch anyway, as it would be much too steep a slope. No way the caravan can roll off once it is on the plank.

Not sure if you know but the caravan handbrake doesn't work properly if it's going backwards downhill. This is normal and to do with the overrun brake mechanism. It should work OK going forwards.
This really means you have to reverse onto the ramp.
To be honest, I think pieces of wood are far better.
