Wheelchair Ramps Heighten Your Sense Of Independence... Allowing You to Come and Go Freely Without Worry!

 Home

 

 

 Dear Mobility Enthusiast,

As you work to narrow down your mobility ramp choices, you should know that your end decision will need to be based on just four factors, and these include the following measurements, which you will want to write down before proceeding:

1)     Rise: You can determine your lifts rise by measuring the vertical distance between the ramp starting point and its desired height.

2)    Ramp Length: This measurement is actually a result of the rise, and will include the clearance needed for barrier free access.

3)    Weight: You will want to take your body weight and add to it the total weight for your mobility wheelchair or scooter. It is important to make sure the sum of these two weights can be easily supported by your wheelchair ramp. Most ramps accommodate up to 600 or 700 pounds, but you will want to confirm this before making a purchase.

4)    Ramp Width: As you work to determine your ramp’s width, make note of the ramp’s starting point and final landing point and the width of both of these, making sure each of these points has enough clearance on either side to lay flat, allowing your wheelchair or scooter to access the ramp with ease.  

Once You Determine These Measurements, Next Consider the Type of Ramp You Will Need, Choosing From the Following (5) Styles:

Suitcase Ramps: Designed for scooters and wheelchairs alike, folding, portable ramps are sturdy, dependable and lightweight, enabling access to vans, steps and other raised landings.

 

Threshold Ramps: Threshold Ramps are great choices for doorway thresholds and raised landings, with some easily trimmed to fit your unique needs and others made specifically for beveled edges that may be a real nuisance to your scooter or wheelchair.

 

Roll-Up Ramps: Designed for use with steps and curves, telescoping ramps for powered wheelchairs and electric scooters are also a great choice for loading chairs and scooters into trucks, vans, etc.

 

Van Ramps: Specifically designed to allow easy access to vans, steps and other raised landings, VAN and SUV ramps are generally compact and made in varying lengths, including 6’, 7’, 8’ and 10’ lengths, weighing as little as 37 pounds and holding up to 600 pounds...

 

Solid Bariatric and Modular Bariatric Wheelchair Ramps: You can increase your ramp’s width with a portable bariatric panel ramp, which can hold a surprising 800 pounds, despite its compactness. There is also a PVI solid ramp that is surfaced with anti-slip, high traction safety tape, available in 3’, 4’, 5’, lengths and 30’ and 36’ widths, capable of holding up to 600 pounds, yet weighing in itself at an easily managed 13-29 pounds, depending on the model you choose.
