Wheelchair Ramp Installation Guides | Express Ramps

Quick answer: Most wheelchair ramps are designed for do-it-yourself installation, and many go in within an afternoon using common hand tools.

These guides walk you through every step: checking your site, measuring rise and run, preparing the ground, assembling and anchoring modular, threshold, and portable ramps, and adding handrails and landings.

Before you build, check with your local building department about permit requirements so your ramp is ready to use right away.
