DMI Ramps For Wheelchairs For Home | 600 lb capacity | Adjustable Portable Wheelchair Ramp 3-5 Ft Long 4.5 In Wide | 2 Wheelchair Ramps For Home Steps | Handicap Ramp | Temporary Ramp Over Stairs

These twin ramps are easy to expand to their full length. It takes just a push of the buttons on the side and they slide to full length. When finished using them to get into or out of our house, they slide back just as easily. We haven't needed the portability aspect of the ramps, yet, but will be taking the ramps with us for trips anywhere other than to her orthopedic surgeon's office where we know they are wheelchair accessible. If we are going anywhere else, the zip pouch is easy to use and the handles of the zip pouch fit perfectly over the handles of the wheelchair and do not slip off.We were out of state when my wife fell and broke her ankle, so I ordered this from Amazon and it was waiting when we got back home. Without it, I don't know how we would have gotten her into the house. With these ramps, it was easy. The ramps are light weight, but they are plenty strong. They easily support the weight of a manual wheelchair and the person using it.The only issue of concern is that the front and rear wheels must be in line. Some manual chairs and many powered chairs have front wheels set narrower apart than the rear wheels. That will not work with this type of ramp.

Pinched my finger the very first thing. One part is not locked in place and flys out when opening. Not stable at all and feels very wobbly. You have to make a “cheat stick” to get the placement of the top and bottom ramps square before using it or your wheelchair wheels will cause it to slip and slide out of place. I drilled a hole through the upper aluminum of both ramps and inserted bushings into the top of my wooden step. This allows me to place a lynch pin through the hole in the ramp and into the sleeve of the bushing to hold it firmly in place. Still trying to figure out how to rig a temporary non -slip solution for the bottom of each ramp. The sand papery material that is coated on the bottom of the ramps flaked off the first time I used them.I should have returned them but thought I could make them work better…not so much!

Highly recommend! Light and easy to carry around with you.

These ramps came well packaged. Once I opened and extended the ramps, I knew they would not fit our scooter due to the front wheels being closer than the rear wheels. I modified the ramp by attaching a plywood addition to the ramps. My wife is 85 and would not be able to assemble and lift the ramps if made separate. I extended and attached the boards so all she would have to do is slide the ramp out of her SUV. Our scooter only weighs 40 lbs, but she does not need to lift the scooter.

This is a very convenient pair of ramps that work great but we haven't managed to use a wheelchair that have the large side wheels to line up properly to successfully use the ramps with that type of chair. We are using a chair that have only smaller wheels all the way around because there was no getting the ramps exact to have the chair successfully get up and down the ramps. I believe that we wiil eventually be able to use the chair with the large side wheels after we get the spacing exact before a wider set of wheels can maneuver on this set. All wheels apparently on this type of chair will have to run very close to the edge of the sides of the ramp to get it to work. I love the fact is has a carrying bag and is nothing to store the set when we get done using them. This really helped my husband out to get another ramp and not have someone make one so he can get in and out of our extra room that requires a step down into the room. He doesn't have the mobility to get into the room without this ramp. If you are about to purchase this set of ramps I suggest measuring the width of the wheels to make sure they are wide enough for you purpose. I appreciate the guard rails along the sides but can make this difficult if the wheels on your wheelchair are wider than the guard rails allow...but is a must have to make sure that a wheels don't cause an accident by them going off the path of the ramp but restrict how wide the wheels can be . (It may have worked better if I took the chair down backwards because only the large wheel has to start the journey down the ramp and the others will end up aligning themselves as it goes. ) I still feel this is a great purchase and can be a savior if you depend on wheelchairs for mobility! I have given this item a 4 rating just because of the ramp not holding a large wheel chair. If I find out that it will work better by tweeking the way I've tried it I would give it 5 stars. I will change this should I find out that it is workable.

Very light weight, handles chairs with ease- none skid liner works great and travel case makes it a breeze to bring with you - can even carry case on back of wheelchair. Simple to set up easily by one person. We have an electric chair and it handled the extra weight easily. Fold down handles makes loading into SUV a breeze. Less struggle = more freedom with mobility.

Also check height of wheels on what you are using it for as some will not fit the groves as in my case useless to me after first use

Work's great
