To determine the correct ramp length, start by measuring the incline or the height of the step you wish to cross. Then, according to the ADA requirements, you should choose a ramp with a slope ratio of 12 inches in length for every one inch of rise. This is to ensure that the ramp is long enough for the user to be moved up and down without having to put their feet on the ground.

Some portable ramps can be folded up and put in the suitcase. One example is the EZ Access Suitcase Ramp. It is compact, sturdy, and portable. It weighs in at 20 pounds.

These ramps come in different lengths and heights, meaning that you can pick the one that is most suitable for your requirements. They can also be easily disassembled and moved to another to relocate it elsewhere. Aluminum is a lightweight material that is simple to install. They also can be able to withstand the weight of most scooters and wheelchairs without bending or warping.

They are usually accessible and can be used to aid you to get into your vehicle or climb a set of stairs at home. Some ramps have lip extensions that can be extended in order to facilitate the transition from the ramp to the ground more straightforward.

Gagliardo states it is crucial to select a ramp that is the same width as your mobility device. A ramp that is narrower will be easier to maneuver for a wheelchair user and could require a lower slope in order to raise the chair.
