As specialist suppliers, we at K5 have a wealth of experience and knowledge surrounding the various products currently available in today’s competitive market. As an employer operating in a commercial or public property, it’s vital that you make reasonable adjustments to the property to ensure that people with disabilities can access and exit your property when needed. Whilst there are many products available, we at K5 have found the wheelchair ramp to be among the most effective solutions available.

Currently, we at K5 supply a wide range of wheelchair ramps which have become popular with wheelchair users and property owners alike. However, it’s essential that all property owners and employers in public and commercial properties fit an appropriate means of access for disabled people. Whilst lifts are convenient, in an emergency situation they cannot be used and therefore other means of exit should be provided, which is where the wheelchair ramp comes in. They are perfect for emergency situations and day to day activities, providing those with limited mobility the freedom of movement throughout a building.

When purchasing a new wheelchair ramp, the first thing to consider is where it is going to be used. Is it going to be placed indoors or outdoors? If the answer to this question is outdoors, then it is vital to purchase a rubber ramp that has plenty of grip, making it safe for use whatever the weather conditions. A metal ramp that is likely to become slippery is not only a hazard for those using wheelchairs, but for the wider public as well. Some varieties of metallic ramps may also become rusty, meaning that the appearance of the business is likely to be compromised if the wrong wheelchair ramp is chosen.

Fortunately, we at K5 understand that not everyone is as knowledgeable about wheelchair ramps as our experienced team.

The Disability Discrimination Act is a piece of legislation that protects the civil rights of wheelchair and mobility scooter users. This states that users should have access to commercial buildings such as shops, cafes and banks, as well as in education, employment and public transport.

The Act states that an employer has a duty to ensure reasonable adjustments are made to ensure that an individual is not disadvantaged in the workplace. This includes the physical aspects of a workplace, such as access. Infringing this act can have serious ramifications for an employer, so if you are a business owner ensure you implement wheelchair ramps and access systems for your existing or potential wheelchair using employees.
