ADA-Compliant Ramps & Decks
An ADA-compliant ramp is a sloped pathway designed to provide smooth, step-free access to a building or elevated area. It must meet specific standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to ensure ease of use, safety, and accessibility for individuals using wheelchairs, walkers, or other mobility aids.
An ADA-compliant deck is an elevated outdoor platform that includes step-free access, ensuring smooth entry for individuals using wheelchairs, mobility scooters, or walkers. These decks must be designed to accommodate safe movement and accessibility, often integrating ramps, handrails, and non-slip surfaces.
Key ADA Requirements for Ramps
-
Slope & Gradient:
-
The maximum slope is 1:12 (1 inch of rise for every 12 inches of run).
-
The maximum rise for any single ramp run is 30 inches before a level landing is required.
-
-
Width & Surface:
-
The ramp must be at least 36 inches wide between handrails.
-
Must have a non-slip, slip-resistant surface (textured wood, rubber, concrete, or composite materials).
-
-
Landings & Platforms:
-
A landing must be provided at the top and bottom of the ramp.
-
Landings must be at least 60 inches long and as wide as the ramp.
-
If ramps change direction, a 60" x 60" minimum landing is required.
-
-
Handrails & Guardrails:
-
Required on both sides if the ramp rises more than 6 inches or has a run longer than 72 inches.
-
Handrails must be 34-38 inches high with a grippable surface for easy holding.
-
-
Edge Protection:
-
A curb or raised barrier (minimum 2 inches high) must be installed along open edges to prevent wheelchairs from slipping off.
-
-
Transitions & Thresholds:
-
The transition between the ramp and landing should be flush and smooth, with no abrupt edges.
-
Ramp & Deck Material Options
Concrete
One of the most durable and permanent solutions for ADA ramps. It provides excellent strength, stability, and slip resistance, especially with textured finishes, but requires professional installation and higher upfront costs.
Pressure-Treated Wood
A cost-effective and natural-looking material that is easy to work with. It provides durability but requires regular maintenance, such as sealing and anti-slip treatments, to prevent weathering and slipperiness.
Composite Decking
A long-lasting, low-maintenance alternative to wood that resists rot, mold, and moisture. It offers a slip-resistant surface and comes in various colors and textures, making it ideal for both residential and commercial applications.
Aluminum
A lightweight yet sturdy option that is rust-resistant and requires little maintenance. Aluminum ramps often come with built-in slip-resistant surfaces and are ideal for modular or portable ramp systems, commonly used in commercial applications.
