You will be able to clear the lip with the dolly. Ramps have a maximum weight limit, so you would have to abide by that. Aside from using the ramp for my wheelchair, I use it as well for other things.
I think I lost 12 pounds in all.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what the maximum weight is. Each track allows my 12 pound dog to access a sofa from the top or bottom by jumping up and down on it!

This item is 5' long. The number of sections that make up a longer ramp varies. That's why it's important to check You should check that the wheel hubs are not hitting the side rails of all telescoping styles, and that ramps are set at the required spacing for all telescoping styles. In some cases a gauge stick is sufficient, however some people will always shift both ends and cannot align them parallel at the required spacing without a more elaborate setup guide. For longer ramps, consider whether the application will allow for a person on foot to operate within the space and load limits. Ramps that are telescopic are small and lighter than folding types, although they are a bit more difficult to shift a load up and down the longer the ramp is.
When you are 61 years old, that might not seem like much, but it is a lot when you are carrying 44 pounds. It had to be lifted into the rear of my SUV so I could load it into the back A 44 lb deadlift is difficult for someone who has arthritis in the As a result of these ramps, rolling up and down is much easier The car was in and out of the driveway. I am glad I found them. As a result, I worried about them fitting into my car, as well as being long enough to give me a more gentle slope. As they're able to extend from 3 to 5 feet, I have little trouble laying them across the back of my trunk.
I like these ramps because they are easy to extend, can grip the back of the van well enough (over a towel to prevent scratching the paint), and are lightweight so I can easily move They come with a carry case, so you don't need to worry about what to put them in while traveling. Additionally, these can also be used for other purposes, so it is handy to have them on hand in case we encounter a venue that is not wheelchair accessible. It took me a lot of time to decide which ramps I should purchase, and I'm very glad I went with these.
During a visit from family member who uses a wheelchair, we took the opportunity to figure out if we could remove the two steps off of I found these to be very helpful! The tools were small, easy to line up, and did not take up a large amount of space to store for later use. As an item of a more temporary nature, I would point out that this product is available. There is a good chance it would not be a good fit for someone who needs to use it constantly There was a good grading or angle for someone to push him as easily as possible up and down these ramps, but I don't feel as though it's designed for someone to manually climb up and down.
What I Like The only thing I don't like is that it's very hard to operate (requires a lot of muscle and the ability to push challenging metal buttons while pulling), and the metal started to bend after one As soon as it was used a second time, the bag started to tear.
There are ramps here that seem to be well made, and extending them was an excellent idea. A wide ramp is much more convenient than two parallel ramps, but having two the same width decreases its convenience. I had to mount my wheelchair's wheels to strips of wood to ensure that they lined up perfectly between the two ramps, or else I'd miss one. I had to align both wheels on both ramps at the same time, so I couldn't line them up together.
As a result, I thought I might have been able to do this. Its raised edges are too high for the Go Chair from Pride to be used with. It came in a zippered bag and was lightweight, which is what I wanted. However, it would not work because the electric chair had a low clearance and the lip on the ramp prevented its.
