With their robust construction, ease of installation, and environmental benefits, these ramps represent a smart choice for schools looking to improve access while managing costs effectively.
Ramp Features

Easi Rail Handrails
Our 42mm handrails are securely attached to the posts using 4.8mm domed rivets, creating a quick, strong, and tamper-resistant setup ideal for school environments. These handrails are compatible with various connectors and end caps for a seamless finish, enhancing safety along ramps and walkways.

Step Units
Step units complement ramps in schools by providing additional access options for students who can walk but might find ramps too steep. Adjustable from one to four steps, and extendable to eight with 300mm or 600mm tread depths, these units are designed to facilitate safe and equal access for all students, supporting diverse mobility needs.
