A threshold ramp is portable and is designed for easy access over any kind of raised landing or doorway. Threshold ramps are made of high quality aluminum, so they are lightweight as well as being easy to handle.
The ramp is placed against the threshold or raised area so there can be a smooth transition when entering or exiting an area. These ramps are made to accommodate scooters or wheelchairs.
Fold them up and take them along so you can set them up in a doorway as needed. With a threshold ramp, there is no need to lift awkward, heavy mobility chairs over thresholds.
Track ramps are used with either power or manual wheelchairs. Most track ramps come with telescopic channels. When extended these channels assist in moving the wheelchair over moderate elevation changes such as steps or curbs.
A track ramp is simple to store as it collapses by retracting the telescopic channels. These ramps are lightweight and can easily be brought along so you have it when you need it.
There are many other types of ramps available including single fold and multi fold. This type of ramp is for loading or unloading scooters or wheelchairs in or out of vehicles. You can also use them in place of some of the other ramps already mentioned, but they are generally larger.
Single fold ramps are the most common type of ramp used. To use it, you only need to unfold it. There is no assembly required first. Then lean it up against the opening into the vehicle you are using and roll the mobility scooter or wheelchair up or down.
Those single fold ramps that come with built in handles are easy to carry around and just as easy to store. They are available in a variety of sizes and materials. They can be used practically anywhere a ramp might be needed.
Multi fold ramps are known for being quite versatile. Because of their design they can be used where longer elevation changes are called for. They are strong and durable and are designed to handle any class of wheelchairs or mobility scooters.
There is no getting around the fact that multi fold ramps are heavy, but those with handles are easy to move. Some multi fold ramps come apart so the weight is distributed among several pieces making for easier transport as well as storage.
With the availability of so many models of folding wheelchair ramps, finding one to fit your needs will be easy.
