    Entry and threshold ramps

    After several discussions with ramp specialists I decided to have a carpenter build a ramp. Metal ones that you can rent are okay but are expensive (initial cost $600.00, monthly rent $250) and do not give the solid feel of wood and concrete set posts. Cost to build $1,600. Also, I did not...
