What To Consider When Buying a Wheelchair Ramp
When shopping for a wheelchair ramp, you should consider several important factors to ensure you choose the right ramp for your needs. Kohll’s features wheelchair ramps manufactured in Nebraska by Prairie View Industries (PVI).
Here are some key considerations:
Materials
Ramps can be made from:
- Aluminum
- Steel
- Wood
- Concrete
- Fiberglass
Consider the material’s durability, weight, and resistance to weather conditions when selecting your ramp.
Ramp Type
Modular: We can create a customized ramp using prefabricated ramp sections. This versatile solution can be used for both temporary and permanent installations.
Threshold: Shorter ramps are designed to bridge minor height differences, such as door thresholds or curbs. They are often portable and lightweight.
Portable: Lightweight and easy to transport, you can use these ramps for temporary access needs, such as getting in and out of vehicles.
Custom: We can custom-build ramps to accommodate architectural or site-specific challenges.
Weight Capacity
A wheelchair ramp’s weight capacity must support your weight combined with the wheelchair’s weight and any additional loads.
Length and Height
We offer ramps of varying lengths so you can achieve the desired slope. According to standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a ramp should have 12 inches of length for every 1 inch of height. Use our ramp length calculator to determine how long your ramp should be based on the distance from the loading surface to the ground.
Surface Texture
Look for ramps with a slip-resistant surface to provide a safe grip for wheelchair wheels, especially in wet or slippery conditions.
Handrails and Guardrails
You may want handrails or guardrails for additional safety.
