FAQs
Portable Ramps Questions
Can portable ramps support both wheelchairs and mobility scooters?
Yes. Most portable ramps are designed to accommodate standard manual wheelchairs, electric wheelchairs, and scooters. Always check the weight capacity before use to ensure safe operation.
How do I choose the correct length for a portable ramp?
Measure the total rise (height of the step or threshold) and use the recommended ratio—for example, 1:12 for public access or 1:8 for short residential use. If in doubt, our team can advise on the ideal ramp length for your specific situation.
Are portable ramps safe to use in wet conditions?
Many portable ramps come with a non-slip, high-traction surface. This provides grip even in rainy or damp weather. However, always ensure the ramp is placed on a stable, dry surface to minimise slips.
Do portable ramps require any installation or fixing?
Generally, portable ramps are freestanding or use simple lip extensions to sit securely on the step. They’re designed for quick setup, with no drilling or permanent attachments needed. Just ensure the contact points are flush and stable before use.

FAQs
Modular Ramps Questions
Do I need planning permission for a modular ramp?
In most cases, these free-standing structures don’t require formal planning permission. However, it’s good practice to verify local regulations if you’re installing a large or semi-permanent ramp.
How long does it take to install a modular ramp system?
Installation times vary depending on the size and complexity of the ramp. Smaller systems can be set up in a few hours, while more extensive configurations may take a day or two. Our expert team will provide an accurate timeframe during the survey process.
What if I have multiple steps or a steep incline?
Modular ramps are highly configurable. We can add platform sections or rail supports to tackle multiple steps and ensure a safe gradient. The design is fully customisable to your property layout.
Are there additional safety features available?
Yes. Stair rail supports, non-slip surfaces, and raised edges are common add-ons to enhance safety. We also offer handrails on both sides for increased stability and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions about Access & Mobility Ramp Solutions
Surveys & Installation Services Questions
How do I schedule a free, no-obligation survey?
Simply contact our team by phone or through our website. We’ll arrange a convenient time to visit your property, assess your specific needs, and recommend the best ramp solution.
Which types of customers do you conduct surveys for?
We work with local authorities, housing associations, and private homeowners alike. Whether you manage a communal building or a private residence, our survey and installation services accommodate a broad range of accessibility projects.

Generic Wheelchair Ramp Questions
How do I know if a ramp is suitable for indoor or outdoor use?
Most wheelchair ramps, particularly those made of aluminium or steel, are suitable for both indoors and outdoors. Check the product specifications for details on weatherproofing and ensure there’s a non-slip surface if you plan to use it outside.
What is the recommended gradient for a wheelchair ramp in the UK?
For public or commercial buildings, UK guidelines generally recommend a 1:12 gradient (1 inch of rise for every 12 inches of length). For residential use, some people opt for a 1:8 gradient if space is limited, but a shallower slope is always safer and easier to navigate.
Are your ramps recyclable or environmentally friendly?
Many ramps—especially those made of aluminium—are recyclable. This helps minimise environmental impact and can be repurposed if the ramp is no longer needed. We encourage customers to check the specific materials used to understand end-of-life recycling options.
How do I choose the right ramp for my needs?
Consider the step height, weight capacity, and whether you need a portable, folding, or modular ramp. Contact our team for expert guidance.
How should I store or transport a ramp when not in use?
Portable ramps often fold or collapse for easy storage. Keep them in a dry area to prevent rust or damage. If you have a modular ramp, you can dismantle it and store the sections if you need temporary removal.
What is the typical weight capacity of these ramps?
Weight capacities vary but commonly range from around 250 kg to 400 kg or more, depending on the ramp’s construction. Always review the product’s user manual or specification sheet to ensure it can support the combined weight of the user and any mobility device.
Do you provide warranties or guarantees?
Most reputable ramps come with a manufacturer warranty. We also stand behind our installation work, so if you have any concerns, feel free to reach out. Warranty details can vary by brand and model, so confirm specifics when purchasing.
Can these ramps be relocated or reused in a different setting?
Yes—particularly portable or modular ramps. They can often be disassembled and transferred to a new location, making them a cost-effective long-term investment.
