Wheelchair Ramp for Stage or Event — Custom Modular Access Solution
A stage, a raised event entry or a complex access situation requires a fundamentally different approach to a standard portable ramp. The height is greater — often 50 cm or more — the routing may require turns, and the combination of height, available space and desired wheelchair approach direction is unique to each location. MIOR offers a modular custom solution for precisely these situations: MIOR ROLL ramp sections, a MIOR Platform flat section, and turn sections combined into a location-specific accessible ramp configuration. Every situation is assessed individually. There is no standard configuration — but there is a proven approach.
MIOR custom solution: MIOR ROLL + Platform + turn sections. Location-specific.
The situation
You are organising an event, conference, concert or ceremony with a stage or raised entry. Or you manage a venue — a care facility, auditorium, community hall or theatre — with a raised access point that currently blocks wheelchair users. The stage or raised entry height typically ranges from 40 cm to 100 cm or more. Available routing space is limited. The approach may need to go left, right or loop. A standard portable ramp is not the right solution here — it creates an unmanageable slope or does not provide the routing that the space requires.
Why measuring matters
At stage heights of 50 cm and above, a single standard ramp creates a slope that is impractical or unsafe for most mobility aids. The MIOR modular approach addresses this by combining: MIOR ROLL ramp sections (the inclined approach), a MIOR Platform section (a flat, level resting point and transition zone), and left/right turn sections (for L-shaped or U-shaped routing when space is constrained). Each module is portable and can be assembled without tools — typically by two people in 30–90 minutes depending on configuration size. For permanent venues, the same modular system can be installed structurally.
How to measure correctly
Step 1: Measure the height of the stage or raised entry — from the venue floor to the stage surface level. Step 2: Measure the available routing space in front of and beside the stage. How many metres are available for the ramp approach? Are turns required to navigate around the stage steps or seating? Step 3: Identify the approach direction: straight, L-shaped or U-shaped? Step 4: Contact MIOR with your measurements for a location-specific modular configuration assessment. You can also send a WEXAR measurement with your enquiry to accelerate the assessment.
Measure with WEXAR
For complex stage and venue situations, WEXAR can help you capture height and routing space digitally via smartphone — a useful step before contacting MIOR for a custom configuration assessment. Including your WEXAR measurement with your enquiry helps MIOR respond faster and more specifically. WEXAR helps you capture height, available space and slope on your smartphone. The result is intended as a digital indication and preparation tool. For formal ADA assessments, insurance reimbursement decisions or permanent structural modifications, review by a qualified professional or occupational therapist is recommended.

The MIOR modular solution for stages and events combines three components: MIOR ROLL (the inclined ramp sections, available in standard lengths), MIOR Platform (a flat, level transition section — the resting point at mid-height or at the top), and turn sections (left or right — allowing an L-shaped or U-shaped approach for space-constrained stages). Each component is portable, assembled without tools and manageable by two people. Configuration and set-up time varies by size: typically 30–90 minutes. For permanent installations, MIOR engineers can structurally anchor the system to the venue floor or stage. Contact MIOR via the enquiry form: describe your stage height, available routing space, approach direction and type of event or venue. A no-obligation assessment and configuration recommendation follows.
Modular and location-specific. Suitable for stages, events and raised entries.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use a standard portable ramp for a stage?
At typical stage heights of 40–100 cm, a single standard portable ramp creates a slope that is too steep for most mobility aids. MIOR offers a modular combination of MIOR ROLL sections, a Platform section and turn sections as a location-specific accessible ramp solution.
What is the MIOR modular solution for events and stages?
The MIOR modular event solution combines MIOR ROLL ramp sections, a MIOR Platform flat section and left/right turn sections. It creates a location-specific wheelchair-accessible ramp approach with a manageable slope regardless of stage height. Every configuration is assessed individually.
How quickly can the modular ramp be assembled and dismantled?
Assembly time depends on the configuration size. A typical setup takes 30–90 minutes for two people. No tools are required — each component is portable and designed for straightforward set-up and breakdown.
Can the MIOR modular ramp solution be used permanently, not just for events?
Yes. The same modular system can be structurally installed for permanent venues that require ongoing wheelchair accessibility. Contact MIOR for an assessment of permanent installation options.
How do I request a custom configuration for my event or venue?
Contact MIOR via the enquiry form. Describe your situation: stage or entry height, available routing space, approach direction (straight, L-shaped or U-shaped), and type of event or venue. You can include a WEXAR digital measurement to speed up the assessment. MIOR will respond with a no-obligation configuration recommendation.
Does MIOR provide documentation for accessible venue compliance requirements?
MIOR provides full technical documentation and product specifications with every configuration. Whether the ramp meets specific building or event accessibility requirements depends on local regulations — verification by a qualified specialist remains necessary for formal compliance assessments.
