Build a wheelchair ramp for Utami in Jakarta
Help Utami regain independence: a simple ramp build.
๐ฎ๐ฉ DKI Jakarta, Indonesia338 views
Utami has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Utami can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Utami's family will cook lunch for the team.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Keep going, Rudi. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Quezon City so I could bring a meal.
Best of luck, Rudi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. All the best.
