Q. Is the PVI Rear Door Van Ramp compatible with all vans?
A. This ramp is designed to fit vans with a minimum inside door opening of 34 inches. It's best to measure your van’s rear door clearance before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
Q. How does the ramp ensure safety during use?
A. It features a patented center hinge that eliminates pinch points and high-traction safety tape on the surface to prevent slipping—even in wet or slick conditions.
Q: Will this ramp fit my specific van model?
A: The PVI Rear Door Van Ramp is a universal-fit model, but compatibility depends on the rear door dimensions and floor height of your vehicle. It's best to measure your van’s door opening height and width and compare them with the ramp’s size before purchase.
Q: Can one person operate this ramp alone?
A: Yes, this ramp is designed for solo operation. It features a spring-assisted, manual folding system that makes lifting and lowering the ramp easy and safe for one person.
Q: Is permanent installation required, or can it be removed later?
A: This ramp requires bolting to the floor of the van, making it a semi-permanent installation. While it can be uninstalled if needed, it is primarily intended for long-term use.
Q: Is the ramp safe for electric wheelchairs and mobility scooters?
A: Yes. With an 800 lb weight capacity and a non-slip high-traction surface, the ramp supports manual and powered wheelchairs, scooters, and other mobility aids.
Q: Will the ramp interfere with rear door closure?
A: No. The PVI ramp folds vertically inside the van and is designed to fit within the rear cargo space, allowing doors to close normally when the ramp is not in use.
Q: How does the ramp stay secure during driving?
A: The ramp includes a locking mechanism that keeps it firmly in place when folded. It’s engineered to stay stable during transit without rattling or shifting.
