What Are Threshold Ramps?

Threshold Ramps also known as doorway ramps are a type of ramps designed to provide a smooth and effortless transition between rooms, raised thresholds or door frames, or any other sort of small difference in height or raised landings whether at home or your work areas.

Rubber ramps are very flexible as they can be trimmed to any shapes and sizes, or any width, length and height to fit your individual requirements. They are usually made in sections, allowing individual pieces to be formed according to your threshold's size or your preferences.
