A Vancouver volunteer designed a walker ramp for her. The ramp
consisted of a double set of heavy-duty aluminum tracks that ran from
the sidewalk to the veranda of the home. The tracks had two parallel
runners on each side to accommodate the width difference between the
front and the back wheels on the walker.
A pulley system with a hand crank was installed on the framework of
the front door and attached to the walker. This way the client could
either raise or lower the walker as needed.
