Modular Wheelchair Ramps
The Big Lug ramp was designed to provide a full 42 inches of width in front of a doorway. Handrails are optional and provide added security for people that need a little stability transitioning through the door. Perfect for storm door or screen doors, the width of the Big Lug allows clearance between the handrails.
The Big Lug is also ideal for small curb situations and creates a full-sized and gentle path for folks using walkers or wheelchairs or even those that are just a little unsteady on their feet.

Our XM Ramp design is built with an open weave surface. Made from all aluminum, the XM was created from listening to our customers who live in parts of the country where snowy and icy conditions prevail during the winter months. Two-way traction on the surface means safety, while the modular design still installs in mere hours.
The XM Series is a direct reflection of what happens when we are inspired by our customers' suggestions.
Made of aluminum and designed as a modular system in both the top surface and legs, we have stepped outside of the box on this style of threshold ramp.
The Hero offers you a threshold ramp with the MOST usable surface space and a safer incline than any ramp in a comparable design. The Hero's ramp surface on a 6" rise provides over 25% more under your chair. With the combination of an anodized surface and special non-skid technology, the Hero exceeds the NFSI requirement for wet Static Coefficient of Friction on a hard flooring surface.
What does this mean? For the end user in the chair, a safer feeling going up and down the ramp. For the person assisting the chair user, less strength required to push the occupied chair up and down the ramp. For the Dealer, peace of mind knowing that you are providing the safest "threshold" ramp offered with the most aggressive non skid surface passing the peace of mind on to your customer.
By offering you a complete modular system, the packaging for your American Access Threshold Ramp is much more attractive to your customers, less space taken up on your shelves and showroom floor, and best of all, more economical when shipping.
