I was trying to decide on which one is better and found this website. www.PortaWalk.com
A concrete ramp would be best for a fixed application, because there are few joints and fasteners to loosen and maintain (handrails only). The downside is that will probably cost the most to build.
If you want to save money on a fixed application, pick a wooden or PortaWalk solution, but either of these are a compromise, because they would likely require some periodic maintenance, and will not perform that well in areas with extreme weather variations.
Aluminum is only best if you need portability to move it from palce to place rather often.

These wheelchair ramps can be disassembled and reused at different locations, and they can be set up in most any configuration. The aluminum surface is virtually maintenance free. Installation is quick and does not require a building permit since it can be considered a temporary structure. There are pros and cons of aluminum ramps and wood ramps. Aluminum ramps are the most effective choice and are maintenance free and minimal tools are required. A 24′ foot ramp can be installed in under 1 hour.
