Hero Aluminum Threshold Ramp 1"–6" | 800 lb Capacity | American Access
The American Access Hero Threshold Ramp is a lightweight, modular aluminum ramp designed to bridge doorways, sliding glass doors, and raised landings from 1" to 6.5" in height. Built for wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, and rollators, the Hero combines an 800 lb weight capacity with an anodized non-skid surface that meets NFSI standards for wet static coefficient of friction. Available in six rise heights to fit residential and commercial thresholds.
Key Features
- Anodized aluminum surface with non-skid technology (NFSI compliant for wet conditions)
- Tongue-and-groove modular assembly — no cutting or special tools required
- 34" wide platform for ample wheelchair and scooter clearance
- Manufactured in the USA by American Access
- 3-year manufacturer warranty on metal structural components
Easy Installation
The Hero is a standalone, portable threshold ramp that assembles in minutes. The tongue-and-groove design lets the starter plank, main planks, and support legs slide together along pre-engineered grooves. Pre-drilled holes and included Phillips-head screws complete the assembly. No professional installation is required for most home applications.
Durable Aluminum Construction
Manufactured from high-grade aluminum, the Hero is built for indoor and outdoor use. The anodized finish resists corrosion, fading, and weather exposure, making the ramp suitable for entryways, patios, garages, sheds, and commercial doorways. The aluminum construction requires little to no ongoing maintenance.
Safety and Traction
The combination of anodized aluminum and a specialized non-skid surface treatment helps the Hero exceed NFSI requirements for wet static coefficient of friction on hard flooring. This translates to:
- A more secure feel for the chair or scooter user during ascent and descent
- Reduced effort for caregivers assisting an occupied chair
- Confidence for facility managers and homeowners providing accessible entry
