Sturdy and effective.
I ordered this product to finish a small temporary ramp I was building to help a gentleman new to a wheelchair have easier access to his front entry. I couldn’t be happier with the product or the seller.There have been a few complaints about the ramp falling apart, however if you use the included screws, there shouldn’t be a problem. I used a 5/16 socket to get them nice and tight.There was one small hiccup in shipping. The seller was more than fair in providing a solution. I would 100% order this product again for any future needs.

Great for our elderly dog
As our oldest dog started to develop mobility issues, he had difficulty going through the sliding door to the patio due to the step down. This ramp was excellent for making the transition easy for him. We placed a heavy outdoor rubber mat over it for additional traction, and it remains in place even when he walks on it. We had issues with other ramps moving since they were not heavy enough, but that was not a problem with this one. It’s strong enough to support a person in a wheelchair and looks the exact same one year later After going through all four Michigan seasons. The height can be adjusted by not installing each of the segments, we used all of them and it lined up perfectly with our kitchen sliding doors. This ramp was a huge help in our senior dogs final year.

Get Easy Access
This tiny ramp is great for getting in and out of the house. I broke my foot and my journey has caused me to have to make a lot of adjustments. We tend to take for granted simply going in and out of our homes until these kind of things cause us to rethink our new “temporary” norm.I can get access easily on crutches or cane using this ramp. It is also good to have if you are using a hand cart to transport items. Very durable. very affordable. It really serves the purpose well.

very easy to take from one step to the next 4to5 inch steps for wheelchair exiting house
this 4″ riser seemed flimsy at first but getting wheelchair out of house became a breeze!it handled a 125 lb. man with a lightweight wheelchair easily, and, trust me, getting in the house was easy w/out a ramp but getting out we had to get the person out of the chair and carefully walk him to the chair from step at door and another off porch 4 1/2 inches porch 5″ house step.it is lightweight and easy to move and reset.I DO recommend this

Dangerous, Poor Quality, No Support and fails to function correctly
I bought the EZ-Access Transitions Modular Aluminum Entry Ramp, 2″ Rise ASIN : B00ULAZQHG Item model number : 43217-2540 to use to get me and my Pride Mobility Jazzy EVO 613Li wheelchair across the threshold into my house. I went with this ramp because it was sold and shipped by Amazon and the page says “This item is non-returnable, but if the item arrives damaged or defective, you may request a refund or replacement.”1. I cut myself getting the ramp out of the box.2. No instructions or any papers.3. Using leather gloves to keep from getting cut again, I lined up the pieces but they would not go together.4. Used a file to remove 3 burrs and got the ramp assembled.5. But the parts would not stay together, so I used one of the small screws (included) to hold the pieces in place. [Note the screws were too small or stripped to stay in well]6. Placed it on the threshold, like I have on my other ramp, but when I drove up it I got stuck. Tried several times on different thresholds and still got stuck.7. Contacted Amazon Customer Service and was told the item was non-returnable, but they would issue a refund. This was 5 days before the return/refund window closed.8. Waited a week and Contacted Amazon Customer Service again [they saw where I was promised a refund] and tried to follow up on the refund. Then said I would be contacted via email to continue the process. I received the email and in subsequent emails they said this aluminum ramp was “for health and safety reasons we’re unable to accept the return.”Amazon sold a “in my opinion” dangerous, defective item and refuses to honor their web page statement. Passing the buck to the manufacture but offer no way to contact the manufacture.So 1 star for the item, manufacture, seller and Amazon total.On the plus side the item arrived quickly and arrival the box was in good shape.

Useful, but be careful.
Before getting home from the hospital, I had to make some investments for my home in order to make things a bit more wheelchair and walker accessible. (Thank you covid for doing whatever you’ve done to me in the long-run and ruining my life.)That being said, we needed a lift for the front of the house. The combination of Stair steps (which I got a larger ramp for) and the lip in the door would prove to be an issue.The setup for this seemed fairly easy, but I was watching and not actually doing. That being said, I had more concern about the larger one being safe than this little guy. First time coming home, while my boyfriend is pulling me into the house, the larger one held great and the small one slipped.However, I’m not entirely sure what change he made, but it hasn’t been an issue since. I have been able to get in and out multiple times without it slipping again. Still, I’m cautious with it. I reccomend you are too.

I have purchased two of these. Because of the hinged design the height adjusts to the transition. It is simple to install, lightweight yet strong. Makes it very easy for a wheelchair or walker to go over a threshold.
Excelente calidad, fácil de usar todos los complementos, la batería dura muchísimo! –
Es ideal para instalar fácil y rápido, se ve muy bien por ser de aluminio y es muy duradera

I think this with me in my van in the case I have to get over a large threshold when going through a door. Highly recommend it!

Such a great modular solution for wheelchair access problems in the home! Wish I’d known about these years ago. I love the modular design. They are very stable and sturdy – we have one on each side of our sliding door to the deck and it’s been a game changer for accessibility. It’s also small enough that we plan to bring one with us when we visit family so I can get up their front step.I use a manual wheelchair – not sure whether these would work for a full sized power wheelchair but definitely would work for scooters and compact folding power chairs.
