What’s included
- Assemble modular aluminum or prefabricated wooden ramp sections
- Set the correct slope for safe wheelchair and walker use
- Install edge guards to prevent wheels from rolling off the side
- Secure all sections and anchor the ramp to the landing or deck
- Add handrails on both sides if the rise requires it
How it works
Measure and plan
We measure the door threshold height, calculate the required ramp length for a safe slope, and confirm the assembly plan with you before starting.
Assemble and anchor
We build the ramp section by section, level each part, and anchor the top landing to the structure so it can't shift.
Safety check
We test the ramp with real weight and check that edges, handrails, and landing transitions are all secure and smooth.
Problems we fix
- Ramps built too steep, requiring excessive upper body strength to push the chair up
- No edge guards, allowing wheels to slip off the sides on narrow ramps
- Top landing too small to maneuver the chair through the door
- Ramp that shifts or slides because it was never anchored at the top
Wheelchair Ramp Assembly in Charleston — FAQ
What slope is safe for a wheelchair ramp?
The standard recommendation is 1 inch of rise per foot of ramp length — so a 6-inch door threshold needs at least 6 feet of ramp. Shallower is always better for independent use.
Do you supply the ramp or do I need to purchase it?
Modular aluminum ramp kits are available from several vendors and ship direct. We can help identify what you need, or you can source it — we'll assemble and anchor whatever arrives.
Is a handrail required?
Handrails are required on both sides when the rise exceeds 6 inches under most accessibility guidelines, and we strongly recommend them regardless.
Can the ramp be removed when it's no longer needed?
Modular aluminum ramp sections are designed for exactly that — they assemble without permanent fasteners into the home structure, so they can be disassembled and resold or returned.
Wheelchair Ramp Assembly across Charleston
Charleston's humid subtropical climate, salt air and active storm season are tough on homes — swollen doors, rusting hardware, mildew-prone caulk and storm-loosened trim are all common. Downtown's historic houses add original plaster walls and tight, detailed millwork, while West Ashley and the islands bring newer builds with their own quirks. Our pros are comfortable with both.
