Appropriate for commercial and public spaces with rises up to five inches, five-foot long mobility scooter ramps can be used in offices, apartment buildings, assisted living facilities, and similar locations. For residential use, they can be used with rises and steps up to 10 inches since ADA-compliancy rules don't apply to personal homes.
Five-foot ramps can be used with step heights, or rises, up to five inches in a commercial setting, and up to 10 inches in a personal residence. If you plan on only transporting unoccupied wheelchairs or mobility scooters, they can be used with rises up to 15 inches.
Here are some of the ADA codes to which wheelchair ramps must adhere so that individuals with limited mobility are able to access commercial and public spaces. For more in-depth information, please read ADA Specifications: Wheelchair Ramps.
