Residential Wheelchair Ramps in Fulton County
Homes throughout Fulton County vary considerably, from older Atlanta neighborhoods and established suburban communities to newer homes in North Fulton.
That means there isn't one wheelchair ramp configuration that works for every property.
The appropriate ramp depends on factors such as:
- Height of the entrance
- Number of steps
- Available yard or driveway space
- Porch and doorway configuration
- Mobility equipment being used
- Required ramp length
- Need for platforms or turns
- Long-term versus temporary accessibility needs
Ramp It Now can evaluate these factors and help determine the appropriate solution for your Fulton County home.
Wheelchair Ramp Options for Your Home
We provide several types of residential accessibility ramps, allowing us to recommend a solution based on the property rather than trying to make one type of ramp work everywhere.
Modular Aluminum Wheelchair Ramps
Modular aluminum ramps are an excellent option for many Fulton County homes requiring a durable, long-term accessible entrance.
Ramp sections, platforms, landings, and railings can be combined into different configurations to accommodate elevated porches, multiple steps, and properties where a single straight ramp isn't practical.
Aluminum is also durable, doesn't rot like wood, and requires relatively little maintenance.

Custom Wheelchair Ramps
Some properties require more creative planning.
A custom wheelchair ramp can be configured around the home's entrance, existing walkways, landscaping, garage, porch, and available space. Platforms and directional changes can help accommodate the required ramp length when space is limited.

Threshold Ramps
A small change in elevation can still create a significant mobility barrier.
Threshold ramps provide solutions for raised door thresholds, sliding-door tracks, small steps, and other relatively minor elevation changes. They can make everyday transitions easier for people using wheelchairs, mobility scooters, and walkers.

Portable Wheelchair Ramps
For temporary or more flexible accessibility needs, a portable ramp may be appropriate.
Portable ramps can be useful for certain steps, entrances, and temporary mobility situations and may be transported or stored when appropriate.

Wheelchair Ramps for Aging in Place
Many Fulton County families aren't looking for accessibility improvements because someone currently uses a wheelchair. They're planning for the future.
Exterior stairs can become increasingly difficult as strength, balance, and mobility change. A residential ramp can make it easier for an older adult to continue entering and leaving the home without depending on stairs.
Ramps can benefit:
- Manual wheelchair users
- Power wheelchair users
- Mobility scooter users
- People who use walkers
- Older adults with difficulty climbing stairs
- People returning home following surgery or rehabilitation
- Families preparing a home for an aging parent
The best accessibility improvements are based on how the individual actually uses the home.
What Makes Ramp It Now Different?
Choosing a wheelchair ramp company involves more than comparing products and prices.
Ramp It Now takes a family-first approach to accessibility. We want to understand the mobility challenge before recommending the solution.
More Than 22 Years of Industry Experience
Our extensive experience with mobility and accessibility solutions helps us evaluate the practical issues that can affect how well a ramp works in everyday use.
Solutions Based on Your Needs
We don't assume every homeowner needs the same type of ramp. A threshold ramp may solve one family's problem, while another property may require a substantial custom modular system.
A Whole-Home Accessibility Perspective
Getting through the front door is only part of home accessibility.
Ramp It Now's broader experience with home safety and mobility allows us to consider how a ramp fits into the individual's overall accessibility needs.
A Family-First Philosophy
Mobility changes can be stressful for both the individual and family. We approach accessibility decisions with the same care and consideration we'd want for members of our own families.
Georgia-Based Accessibility Expertise
Ramp It Now is a Georgia company serving homeowners and families throughout the state, including Fulton County and the Atlanta metropolitan area.
Planning a Safe Residential Wheelchair Ramp
A wheelchair ramp needs to do more than reach the entrance.
An appropriate residential ramp design may need to account for:
- Vertical rise
- Ramp slope and overall length
- Clear width
- Landings and platforms
- Turns and changes in direction
- Handrails
- Edge protection
- Door clearance
- Wheelchair and scooter maneuvering space
- Surface traction
- Weather exposure and drainage
- Safe transitions at the top and bottom
Local requirements can also affect a project. Fulton County and individual municipalities within the county may have different permitting, building, zoning, or property requirements, so the applicable requirements should be determined for the specific installation.
Fulton County Wheelchair Ramp FAQs
How much does a wheelchair ramp cost in Fulton County?
Cost depends on the type of ramp, vertical rise, required length, materials, number of platforms and turns, and installation conditions. A small threshold ramp costs considerably less than a large custom modular system. Evaluating the property is the best way to determine an appropriate configuration and project cost.
How long does my wheelchair ramp need to be?
Ramp length depends on the height of the entrance, appropriate slope, landings, turns, mobility equipment, and available space. The number of steps alone isn't enough to determine the required ramp length.
Can a wheelchair ramp fit on a property with limited space?
Often, yes. Modular ramp systems can incorporate platforms and turns to make better use of available space. It may also be possible to use a side or garage entrance if it provides a better accessible route.
Do I need a permit for a wheelchair ramp in Fulton County?
Permit requirements can depend on the ramp and the municipality where the property is located. Because Fulton County includes multiple incorporated cities, homeowners should determine the applicable requirements for their specific address and project.
Are aluminum ramps good for Georgia weather?
Aluminum is well suited to outdoor accessibility applications because it doesn't rot and requires relatively little maintenance. As with any exterior walking or rolling surface, the ramp should be kept clear of leaves, debris, ice, and other materials that could affect traction.
Does Ramp It Now install wheelchair ramps in Atlanta?
Yes. Ramp It Now serves Atlanta and communities throughout Fulton County, Georgia, with residential wheelchair ramp and home accessibility solutions.
