Ramps: Smooth Transitions for Easy Access
Do steps or thresholds pose a challenge? A ramp can provide a safe, gentle slope for entering and exiting your home or accessing different areas within. We can custom-build ramps to fit your space, ensuring they are sturdy, non-slip, and aesthetically pleasing.
Why Choose a Ramp?
- Enhanced Accessibility: Ramps make it easier for wheelchair users, those with mobility aids, or individuals who have difficulty with steps to move around independently.
- Increased Safety: Ramps reduce the risk of tripping and falling, especially for older adults or those with balance issues.
- Versatility: Ramps can be installed indoors or outdoors, providing access to your home, garden, or other areas with elevation changes.
Types of Ramps:
- Permanent Ramps: Constructed from durable materials like concrete or wood for long-lasting accessibility.
- Portable Ramps: Lightweight and easy to install, ideal for temporary or flexible solutions.
- Threshold Ramps: Small, low-profile ramps designed to bridge thresholds and doorsills.
Ramp Design Considerations:
- Slope: The slope of the ramp should be gentle enough to allow for easy and safe navigation.
- Handrails: Handrails on both sides of the ramp provide additional support and stability.
- Landing Areas: Level landing areas at the top and bottom of the ramp allow for safe transitions.
- Materials: Choose materials that are non-slip, weather-resistant, and easy to maintain.
We can guide you through the entire ramp installation process, from initial assessment and design to construction and final inspection.
