Designed to work seamlessly with PVI Modular XP platforms, stairs, and additional ramp sections, each ramp size can be installed to meet residential ADA guidelines of 1:12 ramp to slope ratio. The modular design lets you create a customized accessibility solution that can be easily expanded, relocated, or reconfigured as your needs change over time.

The textured extruded aluminum surface provides dependable traction in a variety of weather conditions, while integrated 1.5" diameter handrails offer added stability for wheelchair users, caregivers, and individuals using walkers, canes, or crutches. Together, these features help create a secure path for everyday accessibility.

Manufactured in the USA from high-strength aluminum, this ramp section is designed to resist rust and corrosion while requiring very little maintenance. The freestanding system assembles with basic hand tools and can be used as either a permanent or relocatable accessibility solution, providing long-term value for residential applications.

Can I install it myself?

How long does installation take?

Installation times vary; it depends on what ramp length and model you purchased, and how easy the assembly is on that model. Some ramp section might require bolting together, some might slip into brackets. It really depends on the ramp.

Are handrails included?

Typically, the longer length of modular ramps necessities that handrails be included for safety. If you have any questions about whether or not a ramp comes with handrails, please call us and we would be happy to find that answer for you.
