Ramps, steps and porches that make buildings easy to enter, with treated wood, composite or concrete, handrails, landings and roofs that stand up to rain and traffic.
Getting in and out should be easy. A ramp saves your back with a mower, steps make a raised door safe and a small porch adds a place to sit and keeps rain off the entry. Owners in Nashville add them to sheds, studios and cabins, and they want ones that last and feel solid underfoot.
We plan slope, width and landing size from how you will use the entry, then choose treated lumber, composite decking or concrete. Railings and posts are fitted where needed, and surfaces are chosen for grip when wet. A porch roof or overhang is framed into the building so it sheds water away from the door and does not trap moisture against the wall. Entries get used more than any other part of a building, so they should feel solid. We build with the right fasteners and connectors, set posts in concrete or on footings and give surfaces a slight slope so water drains. Handrails are planned where they help, with comfortable grip sizes. A small landing outside the door gives room to open the door and step back, and a light overhead makes it safe at night.
Ramp length, width and landing size are planned for mowers, carts and people.
Treated wood, composite and concrete differ in cost, look and upkeep.
Handrails, posts and slip-resistant surfaces make the entry safer.
An overhang or roof keeps rain off the door and the floor inside.
