Lightweight Scooter & Wheelchair portable ramps.

Users, Carers and Occupational Therapists will find these Dunslope super light weight wheelchair ramps from OTSTORES easier to handle than any other similar sized ramps on the market. They are easy to carry, open and position in place. The wide style and strength of the ramp enables a carer or OT to walk on the ramp safely as they push a wheelchair. The shorter ramps are ideal to keep in the vehicle or home for situations where there is an unexpected step to negotiate.

For active wheelchair users, the shortest ramp (order no RAMP407) is so practical and easy to use you will be able to handle and transport it yourselves; it can even be stored in a useful carry bag on the back of your wheelchair.

The maximum load is 300kg, it is made of fibreglass and super graphite which means they are so light most carers can pick them up by the Dunslope handle with one finger.

They are currently available in the UK in four lengths of 0.7 metre, 0.85 metre, 1.65 metre and 2.05 metre. They can be seen and tried in store at OTSTORES new retail showroom and demo centre in the central England area of Malvern Worcestershire.

The Dunslope ramp, from OTSTORES in Malvern Worcestershire fold vertically, so you can carry the ramp comfortably very much like a suitcase, but so much lighter.

These ramps have a special safe non skid surface giving excellent grip and with high visibility yellow safety lines along the edges of the folding ramps to guide the OT or carer when using the Dunslope.

These special ramps are ideal for wheelchairs, power chairs and scooters.

One thing is for sure and that is we can expect rain or showers in this country at some time, often at the most unexpected as well. Getting caught in the rain when out on your mobility scooter is the last thing that you want and so it is as well to be prepared for this, should a rain shower catch you out.

Raincoats are not always the best thing to pack into scooter bag and we do not want to wear them “just in case” particularly in the summer or if the weather is warm. The Deluxe Scooter Poncho fro OT Stores online shop is very easy and quick to put on and provides the maximum of protection from inclement weather. The Deluxe Poncho covers the top half of the body allowing easy movement and gives full protection to the upper half of the body as well as the knees. All seams are sealed for waterproofing and a full length zip is included with hood fitting snugly at the neck.
