Why Collins
We’ve been solving this problem for Connecticut families since 1931.
We measure first. We never guess.
Every entrance is different. Rise height, landing space, door swing, surface material — they all affect which ramp works and which one doesn’t. Our CAPS-certified specialist measures your entry precisely before recommending anything. You get the right solution, not the easiest one to sell.
Purchase, rent, or try before you commit.
Modular ramps are available for rental with no long-term obligation — ideal for recovery, a visiting family member, or a situation that may change. If you decide to purchase, we’ll walk you through every option at your evaluation so you can choose what makes sense for your timeline and budget.
We handle the funding paperwork.
Navigating CT Medicaid, waiver programs, and other funding sources is confusing. We work with these programs regularly and review your options at no charge during your evaluation. You focus on getting home safely — we handle the documentation.
Local installers. Local follow-through.
Our licensed CT technicians install every ramp to spec and test it before they leave. We’re based in Bridgeport — if something needs attention after installation, we come back. You’re not dealing with a national call center. You’re dealing with neighbors.
Same-day pickup for threshold ramps.
If you need a threshold ramp for a small rise, we have them in stock at our Bridgeport showroom. Come in, see it, take it home today. No waiting, no shipping, no assembly surprises. Our team will show you exactly how it works before you leave.
We’ll tell you if a ramp isn’t the answer.
Sometimes the right solution is a grab bar, a tub cut, or a stairlift — not a ramp. We’ll tell you honestly at your evaluation what fits your situation, even if it means pointing you toward a simpler or less expensive option. That’s how we’ve kept CT families coming back for four generations.
Getting in and out of your home shouldn’t be a barrier.
If you’re helping a parent, a spouse, or someone you love navigate a step or an entrance that’s become difficult, you already know how much it matters. A ramp isn’t just a piece of equipment — it’s the difference between staying home and not. We’ll come to you, assess the situation together, and make sure the solution fits your family’s needs — not just the measurements.

When a Ramp Isn't the Right Answer
If the challenge is getting between floors inside your home — not just the entrance — a stairlift or patient lift may serve you better than a ramp. And if the barrier is a single step or a bathroom threshold, a grab bar installation or tub cut may be the simpler, more affordable solution. We'll tell you honestly at your evaluation which option fits your situation.

Common Questions
Questions we hear every day — answered honestly.
How much does a wheelchair ramp cost?
Ramp costs vary widely depending on the type and your home's specific needs. Threshold ramps for small rises are available for same-day pickup. Portable folding ramps and modular installed ramps are priced based on length, configuration, and whether you purchase or rent. We provide a written quote at your free in-home evaluation — no surprises.
Will insurance or Medicaid cover my ramp?
Funding availability depends on your individual situation and program enrollment. Some CT Medicaid and waiver programs may cover wheelchair ramps for qualifying individuals. We review your options at no charge during your free evaluation — we work with these programs regularly and can help determine what may apply to your situation.
How long does installation take?
Threshold ramps require no installation at all — you can take one home today. Portable folding ramps set up in minutes. Modular aluminum ramps are typically installed in a single day by our licensed CT technicians. Vertical platform lifts require a scheduled installation visit and may take one to two days depending on scope.
Will the ramp damage my home or driveway?
Modular ramps are designed to be non-invasive — they rest on footplates and do not require drilling into your foundation or driveway. They can be removed and relocated if your needs change. Our team installs every ramp to spec and leaves your property clean and undamaged.
Can I rent a ramp instead of buying?
Yes. Modular aluminum ramps are available for rental with a short-term minimum. Rental is a great option if you need a ramp during recovery, for a visiting family member, or while you decide on a permanent solution. We'll walk you through the rental and purchase options at your evaluation so you can choose what makes sense.
What is the right ramp length for my entrance?
The standard guideline is one foot of ramp length for every inch of rise — so a 6-inch step typically needs a 6-foot ramp. Our CAPS-certified specialist measures your entrance precisely during the free in-home evaluation and recommends the correct length and configuration for safe, comfortable use.
Do you install ramps statewide in Connecticut?
Yes. Our licensed CT technicians install ramps throughout Connecticut. We serve residential and commercial properties. Same-week installation is often available for modular ramps. Call us at (203) 576-8642 to confirm availability in your area.
What happens if my needs change after the ramp is installed?
We're local and we come back. Modular ramps can be extended, reconfigured, or removed if your situation changes. If you rented, we handle removal at the end of your rental period. If you purchased and your needs evolve, we can assess what adjustments make sense. You're not on your own after installation.
