Which wheelchair or scooter ramp should I get?

The right wheelchair or scooter ramp depends on the conditions in which the ramp is used. For outside ramps, a heavy duty, aluminum ramp is a good choice because they are weather-resistant and sturdy. For ramps meant to be used with vans or ramps meant to be used in places that require varying length, use a telescoping wheelchair ramp. Telescoping wheelchair ramps are adjustable in length, although there weight capacity is slightly less than other wheelchair or scooter ramps. Another option for wheelchair ramps that must be moved constantly is a suitcase wheelchair ramp. These modular wheelchair ramps fold up into one or two suitcase-like packages that can be carried easily with an included handle. In some situations a full wheelchair ramp may be too much. Doorways, raised landings and sliding glass doors can all benefit from a threshold wheelchair ramp. These ramps are made of durable aluminum or rubber, and despite their small size, can hold up to 600 lbs.
