An ADA accessible ramp must have a slope no greater than 1:12, meaning for every inch of vertical rise, there must be at least 12 inches of horizontal run. This is equivalent to an 8.33% slope.

The ramp in front of your building does not meet ADA requirements and will cause wheelchair users to fall forward when going down your ramp.

Consider removing the ramp and replacing the front of the store with a curb cut of appropriate length.

To Gerard and his staff: Thank you so very much for helping me get a dozen cupcakes to a work event in time by allowing me to stop by before normal business hours yesterday! I am so extremely appreciative. And the cupcakes were amazing! The team loved them!!
