Q. What kind of doorways is this ramp compatible with?
A. It’s perfect for the doorways that swing in.
Q. How do I clean and maintain the PVI Self Supporting Threshold Ramp?
A. This ramp is virtually maintenance-free, but to keep it in great shape, regularly clear away dirt and debris. In winter, avoid using metal tools on snow or ice—opt for a plastic shovel or a non-corrosive, pet-safe ice melt. These simple steps will help preserve the ramp's surface and traction.
Q: Is this ramp suitable for indoor and outdoor use?
A: Yes, the ramp is constructed from welded aluminum, which is rust-resistant and weatherproof, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor environments.
Q: Will this ramp stay in place without needing to be bolted down?
A: Yes. The ramp features a grip surface and solid weight, which helps it stay in place during normal use. However, pre-drilled mounting holes are included if permanent anchoring is preferred for extra safety.
Q: Can this ramp handle power chairs and heavy scooters?
A: Absolutely. The ramp supports a weight capacity of up to 600 lbs, making it suitable for manual wheelchairs, power chairs, mobility scooters, and walkers.
Q: Does this ramp come pre-assembled?
A: Yes, the PVI Threshold Ramp is a one-piece design, so there’s no assembly required. It’s ready to use straight out of the box.
Q: How do I choose the right size for my threshold?
A: Measure the vertical rise from the ground to the top of the threshold. The ramp comes in different sizes, typically ranging from 1" to 4" high. Choose a ramp height that closely matches your threshold for the smoothest transition.
