Here's a pic of a recent project. This modular wheelchair ramp is from Prarie View Industries. It is an excellent system, very sturdy. I had to widen the concrete sidewalks to install the ramp. The long section is about 26LF, the turn platform is 5'x5' and the final section is 8LF.

Looks good!

My bride wants one installed so I looked up the vendor and saved it to favorites.. Probably get one later this year.

Aside from the roof leak, soft floors, rats, mice and bursted plumbing ........ how do you like it?

If you don't mind my asking, how much is it? I looked into having one installed, he wanted like 3k +.

Hi Tinyone,

I guess the price depends on the length and brand you choose. There were brands I passed on because I did not like the build of the unit. This ramp had a total length of 39 ft, counting the landing. The cost of materials alone was over $4500, not counting concrete.
