Happy Friday! We are sharing this again as we have had quite a few phone calls today regarding what to use on ramps with winter weather in place. ❄️

❄️ 🚨 WINTER WEATHER POSTING ❄️ 🚨 We have already experienced some winter weather, and it is essential to prepare for the upcoming season. Installing a ramp or outdoor stairlift BEFORE winter arrives is crucial. Let’s work together to prevent accidents. We want to ensure that you can navigate stairs safely, especially with snow and ice added on top of what may already be a bit of a difficult trek. Additionally, we do not want anyone to risk getting stuck or hurt while trying to maneuver a wheelchair through snowy and icy conditions. It is always better to be safe than sorry. Please contact us today to explore how we can assist you! ☎️630-892-7267✨

We hope everyone is feeling refreshed after the holiday weekend! Let’s talk about cleaning our grab bars. Soap scum can build up on your grab bars just like any other part of your shower and bathtub. Make a habit of cleaning your grab bars regularly, ideally with a mixture of warm water and mild dish soap. Make sure to wipe dry after cleaning to ensure soap scum is gone. This will keep your grab bars from feeling slick, and keep them looking nice and shiny! If you have any questions, RampNOW is here to take your call ☎️630-892-7267✨

Take a look at our powered hinge track! The track folds when not in use, allowing clear access to the lower level of the staircase. The powered hinge track is especially helpful for high traffic areas, narrow hallways, and areas close to doorways. If you have any questions about our stairlifts, give us a call! ☎️630-892-7267✨

Sharing this again due to the winter weather!

Happy hump day! Believe it or not, winter is right around the corner. Let’s talk about what should be used on ramps for snow and ice during the winter season.

✅Regular ice melt. Ice melt is a blend of sodium chloride as well as magnesium chloride and/or and calcium chloride. Calcium chloride is typically regarded as the best performing ice melt for fast melting and long lasting action.

❌Rock salt. We do NOT want to use rock salt. Rock salt will pit and stain the aluminum ramp. Rock salt has also been known to cause damage over time to asphalt, concrete, and vehicles.

✅Plastic shovels. Lighter weight, and safer for the surface of your ramp. Will not cause scrapes and scratches.

❌Metal shovels. Heavier, which can cause back strain. Can scratch or gouge surfaces.

Give us a call with any questions on how to prepare you for the winter season!
