If you or a loved one suddenly needs safer access in and out of the home, one of the first questions is usually:
“How much does it cost to rent a modular wheelchair ramp in Lexington, Kentucky?”
At Mobility Equipment of Lexington, we believe pricing should be simple and transparent.
Our modular wheelchair ramp rentals start at:
- $30 per foot / month for a straight modular aluminum ramp with handrails
- $250 one-time installation fee
- $250 one-time removal fee
If your setup requires landing platforms, turns, switchbacks, or custom configurations, additional charges may apply depending on the design.
Best of all, there is no minimum rental commitment. Our rentals are month-to-month, so you only pay for the time you actually need the ramp.
We can typically install within 24–48 hours in Lexington and surrounding Central Kentucky areas.
What Is a Modular Wheelchair Ramp?
A modular wheelchair ramp is a temporary or semi-permanent ramp system made from durable aluminum sections that can be configured to fit almost any home entrance.
Unlike wood ramps or concrete ramps, modular ramps offer several advantages:
- Fast installation
- No permanent construction
- Weather-resistant aluminum
- Slip-resistant walking surface
- Easy removal when no longer needed

How Ramp Rental Pricing Works
The biggest factor in rental cost is simple:
Ramp Length (Measured in Feet)
At Mobility Equipment of Lexington, rental pricing is:
$30 per foot per month
That means the longer the ramp, the higher the monthly rental.

Why Some Ramps Cost More
Not every home in Lexington has a simple front step.
Additional costs may apply for:
Landing Platforms
Platforms are flat resting areas used for:
- Door entry
- Safe turning
- Resting between long ramp runs
Turns / Switchbacks
Some homes don’t have enough straight-line space.
In those cases, we build:
- 90-degree turns
- 180-degree switchbacks
- Custom directional layouts
These require additional ramp sections and labor.
