8′ Wheelchair Accessible Ramp

Thursday Dec 11, 2008

8' Wheelchair Accessible Ramp

Give performers who use wheelchairs easy access to the stage with Southern Aluminum’s Stage Ramp. Slide the aluminum ramp up to the edge of your stage deck; additional ramps might be needed to reach the height of your stage. The ramp is 2 inch thick, so the ADA Entry Piece (sold separately) is necessary to create a smooth transition from the floor to the ramp no bumping wheelchair tires on the end of the ramp. Both the ramp and entry piece have a black, non-skid powder-coat paint finish that matches your stage. Keep in mind that to meet ADA requirements, the slope of the ramp must increase no more than 1 inch in height per foot in length. For example, a 24 inch high stage would need an entry piece and three 8′ long ramps to meet ADA requirements.
