St George's Hospital
Healthcare
Roehampton, London
REQUIREMENT:
Two temporary laboratories were planned for installation in the hospital parking lot.
It was determined that a ramp with a wide platform was necessary to accommodate the diverse range of daily users of the system, including those operating patient-moving equipment, carts, and pedestrians accessing the cabins.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Our in-house CAD designer created illustrations, basing them on the drawings and measurements provided by the architect.
END RESULT:
A fully compliant ramp featuring an extra-wide metal walkway was designed and successfully installed. This product boasts a secure loading capacity of over one ton!
FEATURES INCLUDED:
- Yellow Tread - this is a safety feature designed to help those with impaired vision identify the nose of the ramp or step. Additionally, it helps users distinguish any level changes.
- Infill Handrail - if the ramp height exceeds 380mm, Infill handrail is a requirement to prevent users from climbing or falling through gaps.
- 1100mm High Rail - 1100mm handrails are attached to any level sections.
- Mesh Platform – a self-draining mesh platform allows water to pass through rather than puddle on the surface and potentially freeze. Minimum width: 1500mm.
- Rest Platform - a rest platform at 5 metres is required to allow the user to pause.
- Trombone Ends - these are added to the ends of a Rapid Ramp to prevent clothes catching.
- Standard Continuous Handrail - this handrail system ensures the users always have support to hold onto.
EXTRA FEATURE INCLUDED:
- Yellow 900mm High Handrail To Ramped Sections – designed to be gripped by children and wheelchair users. A bright colour such as yellow is generally the easiest to see because of the colour's ability to reflect light.
METAL WALKWAYS:
Our ramps come in various lengths, widths, heights, and configurations, catering to a wide array of application requirements.
We provide a selection of widths, which includes:
- 900mm
- 1000mm
- 1200mm
- 1500mm
These choices can be securely combined, allowing you to achieve virtually any desired width to meet your specific needs.
