@toolsbydesign: Help your neighbors. I wanted to make sure wild Bill has a bit easier access into his house after his shopping trips in his old Dodge Caravan. You think these ramps looked sketchy, you should have seen him with just walker before. Bill is a combat veteran from the Korean war and one hell of a nice man. More to come as I make sure his place is safe for the limited mobility that comes with living into your 90s. The ramps were secured to the concrete after he made it inside. A handrail will be added next. I may add one on each side of the ramps. He's a strong old guy. #helpaneighbor #veteran #grandpa #neighbors

Great work! Will be anchored down some way so they don’t slip?

I'd be scared of it slipping due to not being secured to concrete

You can do a small rubber threshold ramp for the interior threshold

Get another pair and make the bottom wider so he don't roll off of it.

as a cna, and help take care of my parents, one thing I see you can do make it better is to add another one, make it a little wider, so the wheel or there foot don't comes off the ramp.

could you put bumpers on the sides so he doesn't accidentally slide the walker off?

I would have used galvanized, steel beams and bolts. I borrowed from my neighbors, Grandma and used eco-friendly wood veneers for the ramps.

That’s great. And looks like it can accommodate a lot of different heights.
