Car park wheelchair ramps

Car parks are used daily by various types of users and often provide access to other service levels, including shopping malls and hospitals. As a service provider, car park owners must ensure these buildings are wheelchair accessible to comply with the Equalities Act 2010. This requirement is often achieved with lift access to different levels and ramps.

What Type of Wheelchair Ramp Is Suitable For Car Parks?

The chosen ramp will often provide wheelchair access over a physical barrier such as steps, piping, cabling, or over a threshold height.

The ramp must have the following qualities:

A robust design for longevity.
Weather-resistant.
Rust-resistant.
Slip-resistant.
A sturdy walkway that can safely supports high volumes of public footfall, wheelchairs, prams and mobility scooters.
Trombone ends to prevent clothes from snagging at the end of the ramp.
Fixings to keep the system securely in place over the concrete.
Often must fully comply with Part M & K of the Building Regulations.

The Rapid Ramp System

Our modular Rapid Ramp System has all these qualities and more.

The system has a fully adjustable design to suit different site changes and continues to be suitable for temporary and permanent use. Plus, with a loading capacity of 1,000kgs, the walkway can safely support high volumes of public traffic.

Site Surveys

The lidar scanning technology used by our site surveyor is beneficial for car park projects.

The machine scans and plots the heights and widths of the objects in view, including the flooring, ceiling, pillars, and overhead ring beams. The ramp can then be designed around such obstructions. >Learn More About Modular Ramp<
