The easy installation of a wheelchair ramp will help. ... As distributors of several types of ramps, we have seen some well-intentioned attempts to create an acceptable slope to allow someone with mobility difficulties (whether in a mobility device or not) to bypass the stairs outside their home or place of business.

Another satisfied customer. I am a quadriplegic with very limited upper body movement and own a 38-acre hobby farm east of Winnipeg. With guidance from David, I purchased the Action Track Standard wheelchair to be able to visit my farm animals in the pasture and to be able to enjoy hunting, one of my passions, again. This has allowed me more independence.

Your home or business can quickly become a challenging space full of obstacles. Entrances, bathrooms, doorknobs, and certain surfaces may suddenly become hazardous. In typical multi-level dwellings access to upper levels may be completely cut off to you or your loved one. TIP: Eliminate or modify steps near the entry... Stairs are a hazard for anyone with limited mobility, not just those in wheelchairs. Sometimes the first barrier you face is just getting into the house. If you don’t have an alternate entry such as through the garage or back door, you’ll need to create a ramp suitable for walkers, wheelchairs, power chairs, and other mobility aids. Several ramp styles exist and are available at The Access Store; * modular or collapsible ramps allow for easy setup and storage * portable ramps that can quickly transform any step into a wheelchair accessible entry * threshold ramps with anti-slip, high traction surface If you would like to know more about this product please feel free to contact us in person, on the phone M-F 9 AM-5 PM or on our website. #accessibility #design #innovation #humancenteredinnovation #paraplegic #wheelchair #wheelchairlife #spinalcordinjury #disabled #disability #disabilityawareness #motivation #nevergiveup #paraplegiclife #quadriplegic #paralysis #homesweethome
