Having impaired mobility does not mean that you or your loved ones should remain at home all day long. With a suitcase ramp, it is possible to easily scale curbs and steps wherever you go. Take a look at some of the advantages offered by suitcase ramps:
- Portability
Suitcase ramps come equipped with durable built-in handles, making it easy to carry and move the ramp. This allows you to quickly transport the ramp between your home, vehicle, and destination. In addition, these ramps can be folded shut, just like a suitcase. This allows you to easily carry the ramp and fit it into your car. Because suitcase ramps are easy to fold up, you can store yours in a closet when it is not in use. Suitcase ramps are also lighter than standard ramps, with small ramps weighing only 11 pounds.
- Full Functionality
Despite its smaller size and ability to be folded, a suitcase ramp provides all of the functionality of a standard ramp. These portable ramps are available in lengths of up to eight feet, and they are 30 inches wide. Suitcase ramps can be used by individuals in wheelchairs or scooters and can accommodate up to 800 pounds.
- Safety Features
Suitcase ramps have a variety of features which ensure wellbeing, allowing you to move up and down curbs or steps without risking injury no matter where you are. These ramps are made of aluminum and feature an advanced, extruded non-skid surface that makes them easy to ascend and descend. In addition, the ramp’s non-protruding, full-length hinges are designed to prevent pinched fingers and skin.
