Wheel chair ramps provide a safe means of navigating curbs, stairs and doorways.

Navigating a wheelchair for those with disabilities can be quite difficult in areas with curbs or stairs. Wheel chair ramps from Easy Rack provide a safe means of navigating these obstacles. These flexible and easily positioned wheel chair ramps stretch across areas that would otherwise present an access issue, and make sure that there are no obstacles to get in the way of people who want to access your facilities with ease.

Whether you just need to install a simple residential wheelchair ramp over a raised curb to ensure that people with mobility issues are able to get from the parking lot to the sidewalk, or need a ramp to provide an alternative to tackle a short stair case, Easy Rack offers the perfect solutions in a range of different sizes and strengths.

One of the main innovations that you will see on all Easy Rack wheelchair ramps is a pair of safety rails on either side of the ramp. These wheel guides prevent users from accidentally rolling off the ramp in use, and increase the safety. Easy Rack wheel chair ramps also have a high quality serrated pattern on the main surface of the ramp, providing traction when rolling up, and enjoy good control on the way back down.

Wheel chair lifts and wheel chair ramps make access easy to those with disabilities.

The most effective wheel chair lifts offered by Easy Rack feature ergonomic innovations that you would expect from a professional quality device. The standard wheel chair lift we offer provides smooth and powerful action that raises wheel chair users up to 36 inches at the touch of a button.

Residential wheel chair lifts from Easy Rack have all the required safety features. On operation of the wheel chair lift, a lip is automatically raised at the back of the wheel chair lift to prevent the user from rolling off backwards and potentially injuring themselves. The wheel chair lift will also stop automatically on descent if it detects that something is trapped underneath it, preventing injury to bystanders, children or pets. The standard load capacity of the wheel chair lift is 750 pounds, has a powerful 2 horsepower electric motor, and back up batteries to ensure operation in a power outage.

Although you may not have previously considered accessibility issues or wheel chair lifts in your workplace, existing and planned legislation is increasingly placing the onus on business owners to provide full access to their premises to disabled users, and this is universally applied. Aside from the legal requirement, there is also a moral reason for ensuring that all staff are treated equally by the business, and this should be just as important when planning your business’ disability strategy to comply with all of your requirements to ensure universal access to facilities.
