We installed this ADA-compliant, modular wheelchair ramp for a client in Sussex, VA. The client was in recovery and only needed a ramp temporarily. Richmond Ramps offers a rental option for clients that only need a ramp for a few months. When the client is finished with the ramp, we take it down like it was never there. In this case, we were able to install a platform level with the client's door, an L shaped ramp system, and a ground platform. The ground platform makes it easier for the client to get in and out of their car. Here are some before and after pictures of the job.
