Level Up With a Portable Wheelchair Ramp From the Barrier Free Store

A portable wheelchair ramp on exterior porch stairs.If you use a wheelchair or scooter, it can sometimes seem as if the world is filled with obstacles. While stair and wheelchair lifts can provide transport from one floor to another, it’s often the modest but abrupt changes in elevation that make the journey from point A to point B annoying, if not dangerous, for people on the roll. Don’t let a bump in the road keep you from getting to where you need to go. A portable wheelchair ramp can allow for safe navigation over curbs, high thresholds, and short flights of stairs. They can also provide an easy method of transfer in and out of vans. At the Barrier Free Store, we offer a wide variety of portable wheelchair ramps that are durable, sturdy, light, and easy to transport.

“My dad’s strength deteriorated over a short period of time due to medicines he needed to take. Your company provided prompt service. We most appreciated the person who had the foresight to have a stair lift in stock because my dad basically needed an emergency installation for his safety and mine, so we could safely get upstairs. Thank you to everyone for your kindness and quick assistance at a difficult time. My dad loves the lift!”
