Level Threshold for Front Door Problem

[benben5555]

Hi Guys,

 

We have a bit of an issues with the level threshold that is required at the front door. The front door comes out into a small (kind off) courtyard. So to get a level threshold, and keeping appropriate falls etc, is difficult. I asked Building Control for an exemption but they said no.

 

Has anyone installed a wooden ramp, with a non-slip surface, property sturdy and correct falls / landings etc, and got building control to sign off? We are rapidly running out of money and I'd like to do this and then obviously remove it once sign off is obtained.

 

Thanks

Yes

 

 

Not quite finished there, but when the top layer of tarmac was added,  the drive was level with the end of the ramp.

 

On the sloping part, the decking boards used are the ones with a non slip material in the grooves.  The flat part at the top are standard boards.

We installed one made of OSB Topped with mineral felt on our previous build
