Why we know this works!
We love this 10 foot access ramp because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we see too many people become housebound not by their diagnosis but by the few steps at their own front door. How long does a wheelchair ramp need to be? The safest rule is 1 foot of ramp for every 1 inch of rise, so this 10 foot ramp is ideal for a rise of about 10 inches, and it can handle up to a 20 inch rise at a steeper slope when a caregiver assists. Its 36 inch width, textured aluminum surface, 3 inch side curbs, and 850 pound capacity give wheelchairs, scooters, and walkers a stable, weather-resistant path in and out of the home.
This ramp is especially important for full-time wheelchair and power scooter users, and for people with heart or lung disease whose endurance cannot handle steps. It weighs 80 pounds and is meant to stay in place, so for a single low step or doorway choose a Rubber Threshold Ramp or a shorter Suitcase Ramp instead, and if your entry rises more than 20 inches or needs a turn, start with our Getting a Custom Ramp service.
