Simple Steps to Keep Your Wheelchair Ramps in Top Condition
Your wheelchair ramp is more than just an access point — it’s a lifeline to mobility. Over time, neglect can turn it into a safety hazard. Keep it sturdy and reliable for years to come. Here’s how:
- Clean It Regularly – Dirt, leaves, and debris can cause damage or become slip hazards. Keep it clean with routine sweeping and washing.
- Inspect for Damage – Check for cracks, warping, or other signs of wear once a month. Early repairs prevent costly replacements later!
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals – Strong cleaners can erode materials or strip protective coatings. Stick to gentle, ramp-safe cleaning solutions to preserve durability.
- Maintain Grip & Edges – Rubber ramps like EZEdge™ and BigHorn™ have built-in traction. Keep these surfaces clean and ensure edges stay flush and securely fastened to prevent slips and trips.
Remember:
A little care goes a long way in extending the life of your ramp and keeping it safe for everyone who relies on it. Regular maintenance helps you avoid costly repairs or replacements down the road.
