Ramp Buying Guide for Upstate New York Homes

Types of Ramps We Install

• Portable/Folding Ramps: Best for temporary use or rentals. Easy to store and move. Great for Rochester apartments or short-term needs.
• Modular Aluminum Ramps: Quick to install, adjustable, and removable. Popular in Buffalo for homes with changing needs.
• Permanent Wooden or Concrete Ramps: Most durable and code-compliant for long-term use in Syracuse and surrounding areas.

Local Considerations

Upstate New York weather means ramps need good traction (we recommend non-slip surfaces) and proper drainage. Many older homes have limited space, so custom designs are common.

ADA Guidelines & Local Codes

For residential use, we follow best practices for slope (1:12 ratio ideal) and width. Commercial or public buildings have stricter requirements.
