Modular ramps

Wheelchair Ramps in Chambersburg, PA

Greencastle is our top ramp town, with three modular ramp installs including the one along the brick home pictured and one that bridges a garage into the living space, and Chambersburg and Waynesboro are on the same Franklin County route. Chambersburg has more than 4,200 residents over 65 and a median household income in the mid $50,000s, so budget-friendly ramps lead the conversation here.

Franklin County entrances: porches, garages, and in-town stoops

Chambersburg's older streets near Norland Avenue and the square are brick singles and twins with a porch of three to six steps; Greencastle and Waynesboro's centers are the same. Around them, Guilford, Greene, Antrim, and Washington townships are post-war ranches and later two-stories with a few porch steps and a lawn, and a lot of garage entries with two or three steps into the house. Our Greencastle installs cover both: a gentle slope with handrails along the front of a brick home, a front ramp with a platform, and an indoor ramp from the garage to the living space. Fayetteville, with a quarter of residents past 65, and the homes around Menno Haven and Quincy Village add plenty of porches that need a safer way in.

WellSpan Chambersburg and Waynesboro hospitals discharge people with walkers and chairs daily, and a modular ramp installed before the date is a common first job for us in Franklin County.

Modular ramps in Greencastle and Chambersburg, with buy-back

Purchase with buy-back: the ramp disassembles and gets reused, so ask about buy-back when it is no longer needed. The system: 36 inches of clear width, 1,000 lb capacity, slip-resistant surface, welded aluminum that never rots, tool-free connections on adjustable legs, lifetime warranty, with platforms, turn platforms, stair sections, and gates. Garage ramps use the same sections indoors. The modular ramps page has the length table, and our post on wood versus aluminum versus modular explains why we do not build wood.

Modular ramp cost in Franklin County

The garage ramps we do in Franklin County are the least expensive ramps we install: two or three steps, a short straight run, no landing needed because the garage floor is the landing. A front porch of four or five steps needs more sections and a platform at the door, and a tall porch on a small lot needs a switchback with a second platform. Because every section and platform has a fixed price, the number follows the rise and the path, and we give a rough figure on the phone from the number of steps before measuring and putting the exact price in writing within 24 hours. There is no travel charge for consultations or installations in Chambersburg, Greencastle, or Waynesboro, and financing is available.

Installed in a day on the Franklin County route

We measure from the ground to the top of the threshold, lay out the run and landings, and confirm the door swing. Sections hook together with pre-assembled handrails, so most ramps go in within a few hours with no digging, no concrete, and usually no permit for a home. Chambersburg is about an hour from our shop in Etters, so we group Franklin County visits with Greencastle, Waynesboro, and Shippensburg and offer a couple of specific days. For a fixed discharge date, tell us. Stairs inside the house are on the Chambersburg and Waynesboro and Greencastle stairlift pages.

Drive time and scheduling

Chambersburg is about 60 minutes from our shop in Etters, PA.

Straight answers

Wheelchair ramps in Chambersburg: common questions

How much does a wheelchair ramp cost in Chambersburg?

The short porch and garage ramps we install most in Franklin County are in the low thousands installed. Long runs with turns and landings reach the mid or upper single-digit thousands. The exact price is in writing within 24 hours of measuring.

What happens to a Greencastle or Waynesboro ramp when it is no longer needed?

Call us and we take it out on one visit, with no patching and nothing left behind. Because the aluminum sections get reused, ask us about buying it back.

Can you put a ramp inside a garage?

Yes, and we have in Greencastle. The same aluminum sections bridge the two or three steps from the garage into the house, with handrails both sides and a slip-resistant surface.

Is there a travel charge for a ramp in Chambersburg?

No. Franklin County is inside our normal service area, so the visit and the installation carry no travel charge. The only mileage charge we ever add is on service calls well beyond our routes, and we say so before booking.

Do you cover Mercersburg, Fayetteville, and Scotland?

Yes. Mercersburg, Fayetteville, Scotland, Marion, Fort Loudon, and the townships around Chambersburg are all on the Franklin County route.
