Portable Ramps
Go anywhere. No installation required.
Navigating small steps, thresholds, and uneven surfaces should not limit your independence. Our portable aluminum ramps create instant access wherever you need it, at home or on the road.
What It Is
Instant Access, Anywhere You Go
A portable ramp is a freestanding aluminum ramp that you unfold, position, and use in seconds. No tools, no permits, no permanent changes to your home. When you are done, it folds down to a slim profile that stores in a closet or fits in your vehicle.
Western Stairlifts carries the Freedom Series by National Ramp, built from high-strength aluminum with a textured nonslip surface that works in rain, snow, and everyday indoor use.
Whether you need to cross a single step at a front door, navigate a threshold, or roll in and out of a vehicle, there is a Freedom Series model built for that exact situation.
- Textured nonslip surface for safe traction in all conditions
- Hinged fold joint for compact storage and travel
- Durable aircraft-grade aluminum frame
- Works with wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, and canes
Is It Right For You?
A Portable Ramp Works Where Permanent Solutions Cannot
Portable ramps are ideal for single steps, thresholds, and travel situations. For full staircases or multi-floor access, you may need a stairlift or a wheelchair ramp system instead.
Thresholds and Small Steps
A single step at a front door, a raised threshold, or a small height change between rooms is exactly what portable ramps are designed to handle.
Travel and Visiting Family
Portable ramps fold compactly to fit in a car trunk, making them ideal for visiting friends, staying at hotels, or navigating unfamiliar entrances.
Temporary or Rented Spaces
When you cannot modify a property, a portable ramp adds access without drills, anchors, or permits. Perfect for rentals and short-term stays.
Full Staircase Access
Portable ramps are not designed for full staircases. A stairlift or a modular ramp system is the right solution for multiple steps.

The Process
From Box to Access in Minutes
Choose the Right Length
Ramp length depends on the height of the step or threshold you need to cross. A general rule is one foot of ramp for every inch of rise. We help you pick the correct length during your free evaluation.
Unfold and Position
Open the hinged ramp, place it against the step or threshold, and confirm it sits flat on both surfaces. The nonslip feet keep the ramp in place without any fasteners or anchors.
Cross Safely
The textured aluminum surface provides consistent grip in all weather conditions. Raised edge guards on each side keep wheels and cane tips tracking straight across the full width.
Fold and Store
When you are done, fold the ramp at its center hinge and carry it by the built-in handle. It fits in a vehicle trunk, a hall closet, or beside a door, ready for the next time you need it.
Ready to Use
Unfolds in seconds. No tools, no permits, no permanent changes.
The Models We Carry
The Freedom Series by National Ramp
We carry Freedom Series portable ramps because they balance lightweight convenience with the durability needed for daily use. The aluminum construction keeps the ramp light enough to carry in one hand while supporting the weight of a full-size power wheelchair.
Both models fold to a slim profile and feature a textured surface that prevents slipping in wet or dry conditions. Our team helps you select the right length and model for your specific step height and mobility device.
- Aircraft-grade aluminum frame
- Textured nonslip surface
- Folding handle for easy carry
- Raised edge guards both sides
- Indoor and outdoor rated
- Multiple lengths available
Available models
- Freedom Series Aluminum Folding Ramp (single-fold, ideal for 1–2 steps)
