These ramps fold in the middle, making them easy to store and to transport – and just as simple to unfold and secure in position when they are needed

*The product name describes the approximate overall length of the channel ramp when fully open, including the top section of the ramp designed to rest on the step. For the precise maximum length in use please refer to the Technical Specifications below. 

Stepless folding ramps feature the following benefits:

• End caps that prevent the ramp from slipping during use, and serve as shock absorbers during transport
• Softly rounded, folding handles that feel comfortable when lifting and carrying the ramp
• High safety – can support heavy loads

We always recommend using the longest ramp possible – the longer the ramp, the gentler the gradient and the easier the ramp is to negotiate; see gradient guidance below to see if a 1.5m length of ramp is suitable for the height you are negotiating. Different/ longer ramp options may need to be considered.

Choosing a ramp length:

Generally speaking, the manufacturer recommends the following ramp lengths in relation to the stated gradients:

User-operated manual wheelchair: maximum gradient 1:7. (for every mm of step height, you should allow 7mm of ramp length. For example, a 200mm height would require 1400mm of ramp length)

Helper-assisted manual wheelchair and electric wheelchair: maximum gradient 1:5. (for every mm of height, you should allow 5mm of ramp length. For example, a 250mm height would require 1250mm of ramp length).
