The Half Length ParKurb Wheelchair Ramp provides easy access into a playground. Timbers that surround a loose fill surfacing are normally 8-inches or 12-inches high. While public playgrounds must be ADA compliant and it's always a good idea to plan ahead with private playgrounds by making them ADA compliant, a ramp cuts out a clear path between the 8- or 12-inch borders. Having a clear path reduces the chance of a child tripping and falling as they head in and out of the playground. If you have poured in place, surrounding it with a ParKurb Border can protect it. In those cases, using a ramp to get up to the surface can be necessary. The Half Length ParKurb Wheelchair Ramp works well with any of our other ParKurb Border products and the Border or Ramp End Caps will create a smooth transition from border to ramp.
