Help making this ramp nonslip for winter
(lemmy.world)
Does anyone know the best way to make this ramp nonslip? We get a fair amount of ice and snow and there are a couple elderly folks using the ramp.
We tried a basic nonslip rubber mat, but the grooves just hold ice and snow so don't really help.
Our current ideas are maybe adding rubber stair treads every board or two, or maybe tacking little strips of wood to every board.
What I see church and other institutions do around here (Montreal) is put some temp roof things above it for winter. Here's the typical car version https://www.rona.ca/fr/produit/shelterlogic-abri-autoshelter-a-toit-arrondi-10-x-20-pi-62684-330736923
But they have some for side walks. It might be expensive but it can be reused every years and you never need to shovel snow or ice.
