Questions & Answers

Question : What is the proper rise for a wheelchair/scooter ramp.?
My porch is 26 inches high, I weigh 170 lbs, and the scooter probably weighs less than 200 lbs

Answer:
ADA requirements are a slope of 1" rise for every 12" of run. This makes for a huge ramp, in your case 26 feet long. That mild slope will allow a person in a wheelchair to make it up the slope unassisted. That being said, you may not need that much. Electric chairs and scooters will list the maximum slope they can handle for a given weight. Since this is personal property, you may not be required to adhear to ADA requirements. I built one here in CA to get into a trailer. We were able to use a 2 in 12 slope (which cuts the length in half). If you have the room, use the lower slope, but that just can't happen all the time. There are other requirements that need to be followed as well. Guard rails are required, and landings if the ramp must turn corners in order to get the length requred. As far as materials, concrete is always the best, but it can be made from wood (attaching the guard rail/ hand rail at the bottom is tricky).

Question : We need to build a temporary wheelchair ramp.?
Does anyone know where my dad and I can get plans for a temporary ramp? All the plans we have found involve making it a permanent part of the house. My mother just had surgery that is going to confine her to a wheelchair for only about 3 months. We need a plan that is quick to put up and take down, but will be strudy enough to last a couple months. Any links or ideas? Thanks!

Answer:
My husband built a wooden temporary ramp for my mother using 2x4's and plywood. He attached it to our deck and when she no longer needed it, he removed it. You can use any plan for a wooden wheelchair ramp but attach it to a deck or porch using screws that can be removed later.Do not use materials that make it a permanent fixture like concrete place the support studs on paving stones to keep them from sinking in the dirt and follow the rest of the plans Just use screws instead of nails so it can be removed and disasembled when no longer needed..Make sure you use something on the surface for traction and old piece of carpet or a plastic runner turned bumpy side up.

Question : So they have a stairway to Heaven. Do they also have a wheelchair ramp, or do the Cripples get left behind?
I guess that might go along with the "Why doesn't God heal amputees?" huh?

Answer:
I became an amputee as a child and I grew up in a town house with 7 sets of stairs, and a bedroom on the top floor. I'm not getting left behind I'll be the angel rocking the otto bock knee.

Question : wheelchair ramp?
i want to build a wheelchair ramp at a friends house so that she can get in and out with an electric wheelchair. can anyone tell me the correct mix for the concrete

they sell the stuff already mixed, just add water is it a big ramp or a little ramp, wood may be more appropriate if it is a long run I bet you thought you could do this easily, lol, here are ADA specifications to overwhelm you

Question : Which is the best Indian SUV/MUV for a wheelchair bound person using a rear entry ramp. Kindly advise.?
My son is physically handicapped and confined to wheel chair. I want to purchase a vehicle, which has a provision to put the child along with the wheelchair, using a ramp. Rear entry is preferred to avoid traffic problems.Kindly advise.

Answer:
I think you are missing something. Most wheelchair vans are not rear entry, most are side entry. The major decision is between Full Sized Van (typically rear entry and typically with a lift) and Mini Van (typically side entry and typically ramp) Have a look at the article below and you will see this issue discussed in the section"Minivan versus Full Sized Van". If you anyway decide on Full Sized Van, the most commonly sold van is Ford E-250 as you will see discussed in the article. Good luck!

Question : Does anyone know what it would cost me to build a wheelchair ramp for a 35" high starting point?
Wooden I'm guessing would be cheaper but I'm not sure. Please only people who know what they are talking about. Tx

Answer:
You'll need outdoor grade plywood, 4x4's and 2x4's. Draw it out, figure out how much wood, and call your local builder supply.

Question : Does anyone know of an organization that would help pay for a wheelchair ramp for a van?
I have a 9 year old son with cerebral palsy and he's getting too big for my car. I'm in the process of buying a used van, but I'm going to need a ramp put in and I don't have the money to do it. A few people said the Lions Club, or Rotary Club. But, I've never had to ask for money from an organization. I'm just not sure where to start.

Answer:
Another good one is the shriners,they sponser my daughter,5yo w/cerebral palsy.We haven't gotten a van yet,and I'm not sure if they will help.If you buy a new van,both Chevy and Ford have programs that will pay up to 500 and up to 1000$ of the retrofit.I looked for my favorite's links to some site's,but could not find them.Try searching handicap accessible grant.

Question : in oregon what is the minimum slope for a wheelchair ramp?
my mother-in -law is wheelchair-bound for the rest of her life... I want to build her a ramp to allow her husband and 2 sons (they live in the same house) to let her enjoy the clean air and out-of-doors. Is there a recommended slope (inches per foot) for a wheelchair ramp NOT A HANDYCAMP RAMP? She is unable to propel herself but I feel She would bebefit from the air outside...

Answer:
I built handicap ramps for FEMA after Hurricane Katrina and the federal standard then was 1 inch per foot and after each 20ft a landing was to be made for resting whether or not electric or self propelled or someone else was pushing. That standard also went for those whom needing canes or crutches to walk also. Mind you ,now these ramps where built off a deck landing right beneath the door of either a mobile home or travel trailer,so if it was 40 inches from the ground to just below the door;you were looking at 40 ft ramp with the deck landing and the 20 ft rest landing that could be a minimum of 5ftx5FT we had to take into account the width of the chair and height of the person ;in case the rest landing had to make any turns in a different direction. Say perhaps easy access to automobile. We usually used 5/8 4x8 to run the ramp stilted with 2x4 with 15 inch gaps with 2x4 hand rails and floor guide boards.
