Portable wheelchair ramps are foldable and are usually made of aluminum and fiberglass. Their surfaces have strong grips that prevent wheelchairs from sliding down. Most models can be used for manual or electric wheelchairs.
Suitcase portable wheelchair ramps look and fold in like suitcases. They can span about two- to five-feet in length when unfolded. They are usually made of aluminum panels. Some tri-fold varieties can be unfolded to reveal a ramp as long as 10 feet.
Threshold portable wheelchair ramps are modular ramps made of extruded aluminum or lightweight fiberglass. They are ideal for sliding glass doors, doorways, and elevated landings.
Driving surfaces: Choose a portable wheelchair ramp with a non-skid driving surface to prevent the wheels of your wheelchair from sliding.
Corrosion resistance: Choose a portable wheelchair ramp made of anodized aluminum to resist corrosion and rust caused by exposure to water and moisture. A fiberglass portable wheelchair ramp is also resistant to corrosion, but it is more expensive.
