Best Access Ramps
Your front door shouldn't be the thing standing between you and the outside world. Our access ramps give you a safe, compliant way over steps and thresholds, so you or your loved one can keep coming and going with confidence and dignity.
The right ramp makes your home work for you again. We stock disability ramps for home use, portable access ramps, and modular ramps, plus practical access ramps for the elderly. Here is a clear guide to the types and the safety standards behind them.
Types of Access Ramps
Access ramps fall into three groups, from quick threshold fixes to semi-permanent installs.
Threshold Ramps
Threshold ramps bridge a single raised step or a sliding door track. They sit flush against the lip in rubber or aluminium, and let a wheelchair, walker, or scooter cross smoothly. The simplest fix for doorways and patios.
Portable Access Ramps
Folding aluminium ramps cover a few steps and lift away when you do not need them. They suit rentals, changing needs, and anyone who wants a safe ramp today without building work.
Modular and Semi-Permanent Ramps
For a longer-term solution, a modular ramp can be configured to suit your entrance and gradient. It offers the stability of a built ramp while still being adjustable and removable.
Australian Standards and the 1:14 Gradient
For permanent access, the Australian Standard recommends a gentle 1:14 gradient with a slip-resistant surface and edge protection, so a wheel cannot run off the side. A gentle slope is far safer and easier to push, especially for a carer. Portable ramps used at home with a helper can be a little steeper, but longer is always better when you can.
Choosing an Access Ramp for Your Home
Measure the total height you need to clear and decide whether the ramp stays put or folds away. Check the weight rating covers the user and their equipment, and think about the surface in wet weather. If you would like help matching a ramp to your entrance, we are only a phone call away.
Every ramp is backed by our Lowest Price Guarantee, free shipping, and the best returns policy in the industry, with no restocking fees. Over 95% of orders arrive within 3 business days. Because independence matters.
