Summer is here! Want to spend time with friends and family? No problem. Want to go out and enjoy some sun when and where you feel like it? That’s just one of the many benefits of having a temporary ramp this season.
On a beautiful summer day you shouldn’t have to be confined to your home while your friends and family are out enjoying the day. We understand that when you’re of limited mobility it’s difficult to muster up the confidence to leave your home and go out for the day. What happens if you run into a location that ends up being inaccessible? There’s no worse feeling than not being able to access a location because it’s not equipped to meet your needs.
A temporary ramp can make inaccessible locations into accessible locations. Simply fold out the ramp and install it where you need it, then pick it up and pack it away when you’re done with it. Temporary ramps are a breeze to take with you, as they are lightweight and can be folded up for easy storage and transport. You will have the freedom you deserve whenever you need it.
At this point it’s important to note that temporary ramps are no substitute for a permanent ramp solution. If you require a ramp at your home for day-to-day use you should not rely on a temporary ramp because it’s not built for that. They’re not meant to withstand the heavy usage that they would be put through if they were used at your home every day, but they are built with durability in mind to be sure. In fact, they can support an over 800 pound weight capacity.
Temporary ramps, also known as suitcase ramps, are available in the lengths from 2 feet to 8 feet and come with some innovatively designed features. The ramps we carry were built from day one to be the best temporary ramps in the industry. From the no-pinch, non-protruding full-length live hinge, to the ergonomically designed handles, to the enhanced extruded tread for superior traction; we’re sure the ramps will meet needs you didn’t even know you had.
