A Few Porch Steps Shouldn't Keep Anyone Home-Bound
Even 2-3 steps at a front door can become an impossible barrier — especially in winter weather, or for anyone using a wheelchair, walker, or scooter. Ramps solve this without permanent construction in most cases.
How Altamira Solves This
Our Wheelchair & Scooter Ramps come in modular (semi-permanent, up to 850 lb capacity), portable, and threshold styles — ADA-compliant and often removable if a home is later sold.
What Does a Ramp Cost?
Ramp pricing depends mainly on the type of ramp, the total length and rise needed, and whether it's a temporary/portable solution or a semi-permanent modular installation. Threshold ramps for small rises are the most affordable option, while longer modular ramp systems built to ADA slope requirements cost more due to material and labor.
For the most accurate price, an in-home evaluation is recommended so your entryway, rise height, and access needs can be reviewed before quoting.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a modular and a portable ramp?
Modular ramps are semi-permanent aluminum systems built to fit your entryway long-term. Portable ramps are lightweight and foldable, meant for travel or temporary use.
Do ramps meet ADA slope requirements?
Yes, our modular ramp systems are built to ADA-compliant slope ratios for safe, code-compliant access.
Can a ramp be removed later if it's no longer needed?
In most cases, yes — modular ramps are installed without permanent construction and can be uninstalled if a home is sold or a ramp is no longer needed.
