We installed this ADA compliant, aluminum wheelchair ramp for a client in Dinwiddie, VA. The client was having trouble getting their wheelchair through the yard and into the house. In order to get into the house, the client had to navigate four steps. We were able to come up with an ADA compliant wheelchair ramp system that worked perfectly for what the client needed. We installed a platform at the door and an L shaped ramp system. The bottom of the ramp ended right on the edge of the client’s driveway. Here are some before and after pictures of the job.
