Why Carry a “suitcase Ramp”?

Access ramps for wheelchairs and scooters

A suitcase ramp is an innovation in mobility for users of wheelchairs, power chairs and mobility scooters. Although the concept of using access ramps is a familiar one, it is not always convenient and practical to transport a bulky ramp around with you. After all, ramps are usually a metre and a half to two metres wide and made of metal – you can’t just slip them under one arm as you move through a shopping area.

What’s the solution?

The suitcase ramp as the name suggests, is transported in a handy case. What’s more, the case is of a manageable size and weight. Ramps of this kind are available in handy telescopic form as well as plain. The wheelchair ramps are so light because they are made of fibreglass and graphite. Although aluminium ramps are light, fibreglass and graphite suitcase ramps are so light that they can be picked up using just one finger! For a portable ramp, the benefit of this speaks for itself.

Another benefit of the fibreglass and graphite mix is that it is very strong, and even at lengths of two metres plus, these ramps can support weights of 325kg.

Smaller versions of the suitcase ramps are of such a conveniently small size that they can be simply transported on the back of wheelchairs. The handy carry bag or ‘suitcase’ makes this easily possible. Attention to detail means that although the bag with ramp inside can be lifted up by one finger, the handle has still been made especially comfortable.

Other features of the suitcase ramp include an extra safe no skid surface, which is of real practical help when you consider the ever changing UK weather conditions. Highly visible yellow safety lines on either side of the ramp make using it even safer still.

The telescopic version of the ramp is designed to unfold easily and smoothly so there’s no danger of pinching your fingers.

Where can you get a “suitcase rampâ€

These strong, light, terrifically portable, and surprisingly affordable ramps are available from specialist access / mobility ramp retailers in the UK.

Item in my suitcase to be checked...can I have it in my bag?

I am going on vacation with a small child and I need to bring a hot plate and small skillet. I have put it in my suitcase to be checked. It is new in the box. Will they take it out of my bag? Has anyone travel with a hot plate?

You should be OK since there are no outlets on the plane to get it hot. However, you can check the following sites for additional information: http://www.tsa.gov/
