A portable ramp provided temporary access from the hospital’s lobby to the underground car park. However, as the loppy has become a permanent fixture, a strong replacement with handrails was necessary.

A fully compliant internal ramp was designed with a section of removable handrail to create a gap for access to the air conditioning unit.

The final CAD drawings were given to the client with their quotation.

The Rapid Ramp includes a 1:15 gradient and fully complies with documents M & K of the building regulations. 

The installation took two days to complete, and the feet were bolted into the ground to keep the system securely in place.

FEATURES INCLUDED:

•  Infill Handrail - this product prevents users from climbing or falling through gaps.
• Yellow Tread - this is a safety feature designed to help those with impaired vision identify the nose of the ramp and any level changes.
• Trombone Ends - these are added to the ends of a Rapid Ramp to prevent clothes catching.
• Mesh Platform - the self-draining mesh allows water to pass through rather than collect on the surface.
• Continuous Handrail - this handrail system ensures users always have support to hold onto.
• Standard colour: Black - Ramps are powder coated black to create a durable finish that is tougher than conventional paint.
