Customer Rating : Not

| Editorial Review :
Extended Reach ramps offer the same convenience of Multi-Fold Ramps, but with an extended lip to help bridge the gap over large vehicle bumpers. All Harmar ramps utilize a unique non-skid metal surface with holes designed for excellent wet or dry grip. This superior surface offers improved traction; resists dirt and wear; reduces weight and allows water and other elements to drain, making Harmar ramps safer and more sure-footed for both indoor and outdoor use.

Questions & Answers
Question : Which is the best Indian SUV/MUV for a wheelchair bound person using a rear entry ramp. Kindly advise.?
My son is physically handicapped and confined to wheel chair. I want to purchase a vehicle, which has a provision to put the child along with the wheelchair, using a ramp. Rear entry is preferred to avoid traffic problems.Kindly advise.
Answer:
I think you are missing something.
Most wheelchair vans are not rear entry, most are side entry. The major decision is between Full Sized Van (typically rear entry and typically with a lift) and Mini Van (typically side entry and typically ramp)
Have a look at the article below and you will see this issue discussed in the section"Minivan versus Full Sized Van".
If you anyway decide on Full Sized Van, the most commonly sold van is Ford E-250 as you will see discussed in the article.
Good luck!

Question : Wheelchair Ramp-A contractor is building a wheelchair accessibility ramp ?
(see figure) for a business. Using your knowledge of right-triangle trigonometry, help advise him how to create a ramp whose dimensions will meet the specification needed that will allow wheelchair accessibility. Talk about the procedure the contractor will need to follow to find the dimensions of the three sides and the measurements of the three angles. Consider the implications of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in your discussion and provide an example.
Answer:
Basic issue is the maximum safe ramp angle. If you know the height difference then you can find the length of ramp by the following relationship:
ramp length = (height change) / sin (ramp angle)
suppose the height difference is 4 ft, and safe maximum ramp angle is 10 degree (I don't know this angle is correct, you need to look this up at ADA website). Then the length of ramp is:
ramp length = 4 / sin 10 = 23 ft.

Question : What is the proper rise for a wheelchair/scooter ramp.?
My porch is 26 inches high, I weigh 170 lbs, and the scooter probably weighs less than 200 lbs
Answer:
ADA requirements are a slope of 1" rise for every 12" of run. This makes for a huge ramp, in your case 26 feet long. That mild slope will allow a person in a wheelchair to make it up the slope unassisted.
That being said, you may not need that much. Electric chairs and scooters will list the maximum slope they can handle for a given weight. Since this is personal property, you may not be required to adhear to ADA requirements. I built one here in CA to get into a trailer. We were able to use a 2 in 12 slope (which cuts the length in half). If you have the room, use the lower slope, but that just can't happen all the time.
There are other requirements that need to be followed as well. Guard rails are required, and landings if the ramp must turn corners in order to get the length requred.
As far as materials, concrete is always the best, but it can be made from wood (attaching the guard rail/ hand rail at the bottom is tricky).
