It lays over one or more steps, a kerb, or a raised doorway, and the length you need depends entirely on how high you are climbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery size covers the same 74cm width and carries the same 272kg. The only thing length changes is how steep the climb feels, and that is the single thing that decides whether this ramp works for you. Too short for the step and the ramp becomes a slope nobody can safely push up or ride down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo gradients matter, and both come from the Australian Standard for access and mobility, AS 1428.1:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1:14 (gentle).\u003c\/strong\u003e The standard's gradient for any rise over 190mm, and the only one that suits someone propelling a manual wheelchair themselves or using the ramp unaccompanied. Every 14cm of ramp length buys 1cm of step height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1:10 (steeper, with a helper).\u003c\/strong\u003e The standard's maximum for a step ramp covering a rise between 35mm and 190mm. This suits a powered wheelchair, a mobility scooter, a walker, or a manual chair with someone assisting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are choosing between two lengths, always take the longer one. A ramp that is gentler than you strictly need costs you a little more floor space and nothing else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf your total rise is more than 19cm, no ramp on this page will do the job safely. You need a modular or semi-permanent ramp instead. Contact us and we will point you to one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Note on Storage and Transport\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe centre fold runs along the length of the ramp, not across it. Folded, the ramp is about half its open width and still its full length. The 61cm and 91cm sizes travel easily in a car boot. The 152cm and 183cm sizes are best suited to a fixed location at home, or to a van or wagon with the seats down. If you need a ramp that collapses short enough for a small boot, ask us about the multi-fold version, which folds twice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Measure Before You Buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasure the total rise.\u003c\/strong\u003e Rest a tape measure on the ground at the bottom and measure straight up to the surface you want to reach. Measure the whole climb in one go, not each step separately. Three steps of 15cm is a 45cm rise, not a 15cm one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCheck the landing at the top.\u003c\/strong\u003e You need a flat area at least as deep as your wheelchair or scooter is long, so you can come off the ramp and stop before opening a door.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasure the run-out space at the bottom.\u003c\/strong\u003e Pace out the ramp length from the base of the step and check nothing is in the way: a car, a garden bed, a fence, a path that turns sharply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasure your device width.\u003c\/strong\u003e Measure across the widest point, usually the wheels or the armrests.
