What makes a good ramp?

  • Safe, Compliant and Robust

    Our award-winning modular ramping solutions are designed with safety in mind and are compliant with Part M building regulations. The ramp itself is constructed from galvanised steel and is bolted together to provide stability. The huge advantage over timber framed ramps, is that they don’t rot, last longer and need minimal maintenance.

  • Feature Packed

    Our fantastic modular ramps come complete with a whole host of clever features as standard, such as fully slip-tested galvanised platforms and “warm to the touch” powder-coated handrails which provide durable, long-lasting protection against the elements.

  • Recyclability with Cost Savings

    The very concept of our modular ramps ensures that we can provide quick and easy access solutions for our customers without the additional hassle and costs associated with planning a more conventional ramp solution. The modular design of our ramps allows for a quick turnaround from order to installation and because the customer can recycle and reuse the equipment, considerable cost savings can be achieved!
