Lorry Park, Kent

BACKGROUND & REQUIREMENT:

This park conducts customs and document checks on cross-channel lorries.

The external cabling and pipework acted as physical barriers, preventing wheelchair users from accessing the welfare cabins and offices.

A ramp was required to be placed over these obstacles.

CAD DRAWINGS:

Our in-house design team produced a detailed 3D model and 2D plan of the project. These were included with customer’s quotation.

INSTALLATION:

Once the pipes and cabling were in place, our temporary ramp was installed over them within an hour.

The ramp was designed with a 1:12 gradient to achieve the necessary height.

When no longer required, the ramp components will be dismantled and stored in our warehouse, ready for reuse on future ramp hire projects.

In contrast, concrete or timber walkway are permanent solutions unsuitable for temporary use. Once removed, they are often discarded, making them less environmentally friendly and cost-effective.

FEATURES INCLUDED:

• Looped Trombone Ends – Prevents clothing from snagging at the edges.
• Slip-Resistant Mesh Platform – A multi-directional walkway featuring self-draining steel mesh with a galvanised finish.
• Standard Colour: Black – Powder-coated black for enhanced durability compared to traditional paint.
• Adjustable Telescopic Legs – Adaptable to various threshold heights.
• Standard Handrail – Designed to be grasped for stability and support.
