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.

    Had one like this and way longer so it was hard to find a solution. We ended up using sand and clear UV resistant polyurethane as a grip surface. You can either mix them together and apply with a roller, or brush on poly and sprinkle on sand like you’re salting a roast. We did the later and it’s lasted for years
