Wheelchair ramps come in all shapes and sizes. Some are permanent construction, appropriate for homes, office buildings and other locations you may visit frequently. In other cases, wheel chair ramps are portable devices – great for helping you get into a wheelchair accessible van, for overcoming stairs at a friend’s house where you are visiting, or simply getting over a door threshold, curb, or other bumps in the road!

If you are considering having a permanent wheelchair ramps built at your house, there are a few important things to consider. Because the incline of the ramp can’t be too steep, you’ll need plenty of space for the footprint of the ramp. For this reason many people build “wrap-around” ramps so they don’t have to start their journey to the door from as far away from the house.

You’ll also want to make sure the ramp has railings in case your wheelchair goes berserk one day, that it will have good traction in all types of weather, and that it will hold up in the face of the elements (and bugs) if it’s going to be built outside.

If you are short on space, you may want to consider a wheelchair lift, but for the budget-conscious a wheelchair ramps is a great option.
