Description

The internal modular ramp is available in different lengths, widths, heights, and configurations to suit different indoor spaces, such as marquees, car parks, halls, schools, and hospitals.


Plus, the Lidar scanning technology employed by our site surveyors is advantageous for internal ramp projects. This machine scans and charts the dimensions of objects within its field of view, including items like drain covers, slopes, flooring, ceilings, pillars, and overhead beams.


Subsequently, the ramp can be meticulously designed to navigate around these obstructions, and the process guarantees the calculation of adequate headroom between the ceiling and ramp height.


The ramp feet can be screwed down to the floorboards to create a secure fixing. Alternatively, rubber pads can be fixed to the feet.
