(EMAILWIRE.COM, April 23, 2012 ) West Nyack, NY -- When one is faced with whether to install a handicap ramp at one’s home or business, one should consider the best building material to use. But one should keep in mind portability when considering what material to use. Concrete handicap ramps are probably the most durable, but also the most expensive and cannot be disassembled and moved. Wood is the cheapest, but will only last so long and can’t be disassembled easily either. Aluminum handicap ramps, like the ones sold by National Ramp, on the other hand is the better value because it is light weight, durable and can be disassembled easily and re-sold or moved to another location if necessary.
Cost may be the motivating factor in choosing materials such as wood for the construction of a handicap ramp, but in the long run, it may not be the best value, especially if the ramp has to be replaced in five or ten years. Concrete is the most permanent material to use, but also the most expensive and if one decides that the ramp is not needed any longer, it has to be demolished.
Modular aluminum ramps like the ones manufactured by National Ramp, and seen at http://www.nationalramp.net/ can be easily set up and disassembled which make them more valuable to a homeowner than a wooden ramp. Once the ramp is no longer needed in the home, modular aluminum handicap ramps can be easily disassembled and then relocated to another home or even sold to someone else.
Modular aluminum handicap ramps are also great for short-term use. If one is recuperating from an injury or short-term illness, one can rent or lease an aluminum handicap ramp from National Ramp for temporary use. Once the patient has recovered and no longer needs the ramp, then it can be disassembled and returned. Portable aluminum ramps can also be rented for short-term applications such as weddings, voting centers, stage applications or anywhere that a handicap ramp is needed on a temporary basis.
Another advantage of the portability of aluminum ramps is that it may not be necessary to acquire a building permit to add one to one’s home. Wooden and concrete ramps are considered permanent structures and therefore require a permit to construct them. Modular aluminum handicap ramps can be considered portable and not a permanent addition to one’s home and therefore may not require a permit to add to one’s home.
Whether permanent or temporary, aluminum handicap ramps are the best choice in the long run. More information is available on aluminum ramps at http://nationalramp.net/ or one can call an experienced representative or locate a dealer at 877-884-Ramp (7267).
