ramp ideas

cfx · 07-07-2012, 05:14 PM

We are in the process of building a house and have been able to have the front and the garage to be zero entry. The problem is that the back patio entrance has a 3 foot drop.
I need to find some ideas on how to build a ramp that would blend into the patio and not be so noticeable. I have seen one that I really liked but can't find it.
We have in contract for them to pour a cement pad but they cannot raise it to the threshold of the house.

Workers comp paid for mine so I am not sure of the price and really dont remember the name of the company but mine is an aluminum one and I love it! there is two of them about a total of 70 feet and it only took them about 3 hrs to build. Im sure if you looked up aluminum ramps you could find them. Good Luck!
