FASTENING RAMP TO LANDING (ALL RAMPS)
The ramp’s top lip transition plate must be properly fastened to the landing before use. Consult a
contractor for additional information.
If your ramp includes handrails, it is necessary to install the end brackets on the ramp before
fastening the ramp to the landing (refer to SECTION 4).
3.1.
Place the ramp’s top lip transition plate (identifiable by the two pre-drilled holes) so it extends onto
the landing as far as possible.
The ramp’s top lip transition plate must be fully supported by the landing.
3.2.
IF RESTING ON A WOOD LANDING:
3.2.1.
Fasten top lip transition plate by installing one 1/4” x 1” long self-drilling, stainless steel
wood screw (not supplied) through each hole.
3.3.
IF RESTING ON A CONCRETE LANDING:
3.3.1.
Use the two pre-drilled holes in the top lip transition plate as a template to mark the
positions on the concrete to drill.
3.3.2.
Using a 1/4” masonry bit, drill two holes at the previously marked locations. Drill to a depth
specified by the pin drive anchor manufacturer’s instructions.
3.3.3.
Align the top lip transition plate over the drilled holes.
3.3.4.
Install 1/4” x 1-1/2” pin drive concrete anchors (not supplied) into the holes of the upper
transition per the pin drive concrete anchor manufacturer’s instructions.
3.4.
TEMPORARY INSTALLATION:
3.4.1.
Use the two pre-drilled holes in the top lip transition plate as a template to mark the
positions and drill two 1/4” holes at least 1-1/2” deep.
3.4.2.
After drilling, make sure that the holes are free of any residue and/or debris.
3.4.3.
Align drilled holes with holes in the ramp’s top lip transition plate, and then insert supplied
clevis pins through each hole (FIG. 4).
