What height can this ramp safely cover?

It is a short portable ramp, so it is meant for low rises such as a single step, a curb or a vehicle floor. Measure the rise and keep the slope gentle; a longer ramp is safer for taller steps.

Does it hold a heavy power wheelchair?

The frame is rated to 600 lb when the load is spread over two axles. With a single axle the rating drops to 300 lb, so check your chair's axle setup.

Can one person set it up?

Yes. The panels fold and lock with closure straps, and the integrated wheels let you roll it upright for storage. Steel security pins secure it in place.

Will it fit a scooter as well as a wheelchair?

The 30-inch platform accommodates wheelchairs and scooters with various wheel configurations. Check your scooter's track width against the platform.

What comes in the box?

The ramp, steel security pins and a safety video. No handrails or side curbs are included.
