What Is A Portable Cabin?

What Is A Portable Cabin?

Published on Tuesday 2nd August 2022

A portable cabin is a prefabricated building designed to be quick to fit and utilised in both long and short-term requirements. Plus, it often has an accompanying ramp to overcome a raised exterior door threshold.

A portable cabin is a prefabricated building designed to be quick to fit and utilised in both long and short-term requirements. Plus, it often has an accompanying ramp to overcome a raised exterior door threshold.

Requirements that utilise portable cabins:

  • Short-term office spaces and classrooms.
  • Building improvement works.
  • Temporary loos, changing facilities and welfare cabins for festivals and events.
  • Temporary hospital buildings.

Wheelchair Access to Portable Buildings

The modular Rapid Ramp System is the ideal access companion to portable buildings, providing temporary access over door thresholds.

Service packages options include hire, supply & installation, or supply only.

Benefits of the Rapid Ramp System: 

  • A fast construction time - ramp installations are typically completed within a 1-to-2-day turnaround time. Components are also manufactured in the UK and stored in-house.
  • Easy to remove – once no longer required, ramps can be disassembled within a few hours.
  • Design and build flexibility – ramps have a modular design, allowing them to be easily re-designed and re-configured to suit different sized areas and site changes.
  • Cost-effective – the Rapid Ramp System has a life span of over 25 years with no maintenance costs.
  • Environmental benefits – ramp components can be reused under our ramp recycling scheme.
  • Safety features - includes handrails for grip and slip-resistant mesh platforms as standard.

 

Modular Steps for Portable Buildings

A modular step unit is an ideal addition to any ramp installation, providing the access needed for able-bodied users.

They can also be stand-alone modular steps, independent of the Rapid Ramp System.
