I need to fabricate a heavy duty wheel chair ramp.

I am in a TV studio setting and need to fabricate a heavy duty but portable wheel chair ramp. This is to allow a wheel chair bound individual to roll up to an elevated platform of seven inches to speek on camera.The wheel chair as I understand it ,is battery powered and heavy. Is there a drawing available as to the ramp pitch, handrails and etc. Thank You, Jim

I think it might depend on the stage set up , as to the dimensions of the ramp.

7 inches isn't much to go up, so a 4-6 foot ramp would be good to get up there. I'm sure you set guys could help you build one
