Scooter Ramps

More Americans than ever before are relying on electric scooters to get around. Electric mobility scooters have become lighter, more portable, go longer on a charge, and are more affordable. Today's scooter users are more active and their scooters afford them a greater degree of freedom and independence. Seniors may be able to get their scooters covered by insurance or Medicare. Whether it is due to age, injury, obesity or medical condition, using an electric scooter is a convenient and safe way to get around.

Why Scooter Ramps

If you own an electric mobility scooter, scooter ramps are vital to have. They allow you to easily load and unload scooters from a vehicle. Scooter ramps allow easy ingress and egress into a van or mini–van via the sliding passenger door, or via a vehicle's rear lift gate. SUVs, trucks, wagons, and sedans are model styles that also may be able to accommodate scooters.

There are a wide variety of different scooter ramp styles and configurations to choose from. Ramp types include mounted, portable, roll up, folding, and adjustable. Scooter ramp lengths and widths vary widely to fit your needs.

A Variety of Uses

Scooter ramps can be used for more than just vehicles. They have many uses inside and outside a home. They can span steps to allow entry into a home or backyard. Inside, they can provide access to raised or sunken areas in the home. If all you need is a threshold ramp, they can be purchased as well.

Scooter ramps can really help you, your family members, and your guests enjoy all areas of your home and yard. And if you own a business, scooter ramps can provide better access for your customers and help you comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Lightweight and Durable

Scooter ramps are typically lightweight and made of durable materials such as aluminum. They can usually accommodate a maximum weight of 800 pounds depending on the materials, size, and specifications. Some ramps are designed to withstand up to a 2000–pound maximum weights. Some ramps are also rust and corrosion resistant. Be sure to compare products and consider your needs and preferences prior to making your scooter ramp purchase.
