A great option for those who use wheelchair ramps is a folding wheel chair ramp. A ramp that folds allows you to take it with you from one place to another and comes in various sizes.

Some are large enough to aid in getting into vehicles which are in many cases quite high off the ground. In other instances they can facilitate entry into a home which allows for much more travel than simply hoping there are wheelchair accommodations.

Traveling of course is more than just sleeping quarters. It means stops along the road to access bathrooms or places to eat. A folding wheelchair ramp can be useful as a backup plan or in an emergency like a broken vehicle on the side of the road. In any case, these are fairly inexpensive and can be purchased through Cook and Son Construction for your next road trip!

Wheelchair accessibility is an issue for those in wheelchairs and their loved ones. There is nothing more frustrating than not being able to get from here to there. Many think throwing up a ramp is easy, but if they’ve actually ever given that a go they quickly found that issues such as angles, width, borders and in some instances regulations play a bigger part than they first thought.

Wheelchair ramps aren’t the only accessibility issues that arise when preparing a home for aging in place or for other disabilities. Building the ramp from here to there doesn’t mean the wheelchair can fit comfortably or through a door at all! The angles are also a big deal. Some yard configurations or garage configurations require building landings so the wheelchair isn’t having to go up too steeply. The necessary angles for the wheelchair to manuever around those turns requires some thought and expertise. And, if you loved one has any wheelchair accessories attached they can get in the way of those angles working right.
