Ramps for Homes

Aluminum handicap Ramps for homes Quick answer: The right home wheelchair ramp depends on how high you need to climb. Threshold ramps handle doorways and single steps up to 6 inches, portable and GATEWAY ramps cover a few steps, and PATHWAY 3G modular kits reach porches and decks of any height. All are rust-proof aluminum, rated 800 lbs or more, and ship free.

Match the Ramp to Your Rise

Ramp typeTypical riseBest for
Threshold RampsUp to 6 inRaised doorways, sliding doors, single steps
Portable RampsUp to 10 inA few steps, curbs, vans and travel
GATEWAY 3G3 to 10 inSemi-permanent entry with optional handrails
PATHWAY 3G KitsAny heightPorches and decks, with handrails and platforms

Rises shown assume the recommended 1:12 slope for wheelchair users.

How Long Should a Home Ramp Be?

Plan 1 foot of ramp for every inch of rise. A 24 inch porch needs about 24 feet of ramp, plus a rest platform after every 30 inches of rise. Power chairs and scooters should never go steeper. Measure from the ground to the top of the landing, then let our free Ramp Wizard recommend a layout, or read the ramp sizing guide .

Why Aluminum Beats Wood

  • Will not rot, rust, warp or splinter, and needs almost no upkeep
  • Straight PATHWAY 3G kits install in as little as 30 minutes, with no concrete footings
  • Take it apart and move it, add length later, or resell it
  • Lifetime residential warranty on GATEWAY 3G and PATHWAY 3G

Home Ramp FAQs

Do I need a permit for a home wheelchair ramp?

Modular aluminum ramps are often treated as temporary medical equipment, but rules vary. Check with your local building department, and see our ramp codes guide .

Does Medicare pay for a wheelchair ramp?

Original Medicare generally does not. Some Medicare Advantage plans, Medicaid waivers, VA benefits and state programs may help. See ramp costs and financing .

How much weight can a home ramp hold?

GATEWAY 3G and PATHWAY 3G ramps support 1,000 lbs, and portable SUITCASE ramps 800 lbs, enough for the user, a power chair and a caregiver.

Can I install it myself?

Yes. GATEWAY ramps set in place in minutes, and PATHWAY 3G kits bolt together with basic hand tools. Adjustable legs level the ramp on firm ground.

How fast will my ramp ship?

Most orders ship free to the contiguous U.S. in 3 to 5 business days. Larger modular systems ship by freight truck.
