We installed this ADA compliant, aluminum wheelchair ramp in Moseley, VA. The client had been using a small foldable wheelchair ramp for a while and it wasn't working out. The ramp they had set up was way too steep and it didn't have railings. As a result, it was very unsafe and difficult to use. We were able to come up with an ADA compliant solution that was much safer and easier for the client to use. We installed a platform level with their door, a straight ramp section, and a ground platform at the bottom of the ramp. We also installed a rubber ramp inside of their doorway to allow for a smooth transition over the door threshold. Here are some before and after pictures of the job.
