Threshold Ramps are lightweight ramps with anti-slip surfaces which bridge both sides of a door threshold, allowing Wheelchairs to easily and safely travel over them. Some models, like the Complete Care Shop Aerolight-Up and Over Ramp Kit, feature one long external ramp which provides a more gradual incline before joining to a variety of smaller door ramps once inside the property.
Portable Wheelchair Ramps are lightweight ramps which fold down to a compact size. They provide smooth and safe transition over thresholds, steps and kerbs and offer convenient storage and transport when not in use. Folding ramps are just as safe as standard threshold ramps, they feature secure surface grips and sidewalls which prevent wheels from slipping off the ramp edges. There are some ramp models which roll up instead of fold to become easier to store in their own carry bag. They are made from non-corroding aluminium which is suitable for indoor and outdoor use and can easily support Wheelchairs, Rollators and Mobility Scooters, just like the portable folding wheelchair ramps.
Telescopic Ramps come in pairs and extend to a range of lengths to accommodate a variety of step heights. The great thing about Telescopic Channel Ramps is that you can adjust the width between each ramp to suit different widths between wheels of Wheelchairs.
All Wheelchair Ramps are ideal for Wheelchairs or people who struggle with stepping over thresholds or climbing steps. Some ramps also accommodate Mobility Scooters or Rollators.
Will your Wheelchair Ramp be used across thresholds or over steps? Consider where you are going to be using your Wheelchair Ramp and be sure that it is the right size for your needs. The weight capacity for most ramps ranges between 180kg to 500kg, so be sure that you choose a ramp which suits your needs, especially if you are planning to use them as Mobility Scooter Ramps. Different Threshold Ramps feature different types of surface grips, some are smooth, non-slip rubber while others have raised or milled treads, so consider which type best suits your needs.
