Busy buildings share the same priorities at the front door which is to keep people moving, keep them safe, and pass review without drama. Improving facility safety and code compliance with REDD Team’s modular ramps is about baking those goals into the design from day one. We know that you want your entrance to feel predictable underfoot and your submittals to read cleanly to reviewers so everything passes easily and quickly.
Safer Footing in Real Weather
If a ramp is slick after rain or an ice thaw, it isn’t safe to walk across, no matter what the drawings say. That is just a fact. REDD Team pairs structural aluminum ramps and access products with slip-resistant, self-draining decking that moves water off the walking surface and away from thresholds. The result is a surface that feels predictable and safe for wheelchairs, walkers, strollers, carts, and everyday foot traffic to use with ease.
Prefabricated Speed at Occupied Entrances
No one wants hot work at the main door. You want to protect those visiting your facility. Luckily REDD Team’s aluminum access products offer easy to assemble, safe options.
REDD Team ships labeled, bolt-together ramp kits that install using only standard tools. There is no field welding needed. Installation causes only minimal noise so you don’t have to worry about disruptions during the day.
Adjustable legs on the ramps and platforms tune to real pad heights to ensure a perfect fit. Platforms bolt in level and threshold plates remove the bump at the sill that can be not only annoying but dangerous.
Most projects easily slot into nights, weekends, breaks, holidays, or short outage windows so the building stays open.
The “Last Inch” Where Projects are Won
Punch-list problems happen at thresholds and landings and not mid-ramp. We protect maneuvering clearances at the door, coordinate swing and hardware, and detail platforms to stay level and shed water.
Low-profile threshold plates smooth the roll-through so small casters don’t catch and doors operate freely. Those small choices add up to daily safety and fewer surprises at inspection.
One Coordinated System Across the Site
An accessible route never includes stairs, but most facilities still need companion code stairs for general circulation and OSHA-aligned stairs for staff-only doors, rooftops, and platforms.
REDD Team manufactures ramps, stairs, platforms, and walkways. All of the finishes are tailored to match across sites which makes the entire package look intentional and well-planned.
ADA Where the Public Goes, OSHA Where Staff Works
Many campuses and other facilities use both frameworks. We configure each to the correct rule set whether ADA/ ICC A117.1 for public routes; OSHA Walking-Working Surfaces for employee-only access. In the submittals, we label which standard applies at each location and call out the relevant details, from handrail loads to landing geometry. That clarity keeps reviewers aligned and prevents over- or under-building a route.
Modular Today, Flexible Tomorrow
Your needs change. Portable classrooms move. A clinic adds a temporary entrance during renovations. These are just a few common scenarios. Luckily, modular aluminum pays off because you can reconfigure and relocate the same kit without re-fabrication which saves you money.
Here are just a few examples of why you should consider using modular ramps:
- Add an intermediate landing to lengthen a run
- Flip a handrail
- Change approach direction around a planter
Re-level legs to match a new pad elevation.
Think about the benefits, you’re moving assets, not buying new ones.
Durable by Design, Simple to Maintain
Aluminum won’t rust or shed paint like steel. Also, it won’t warp or splinter like wood.
Routine care is straightforward: keep surfaces clean, clear snow with a non-metal edge, and avoid harsh residues. Over time, that means fewer work orders and a lower total cost of ownership, especially at high-traffic doors.
If your priority is improving facility safety and code compliance with REDD Team’s modular ramps, we can turn a few measurements into a clean, buildable plan that installs fast and works on day one. Share your finished floor height, door swing, site photos, and desired clear width, and we’ll return a code-aligned layout and quote. Call (800) 648-3696 or contact us online to get started.
