Abstract
An operable ramp is moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position to provide a sloped transition between upper and lower surfaces of an architectural setting. The operable ramp includes a ramp panel and a drive assembly coupled to a first end of the ramp panel so that the drive assembly reciprocates the operable ramp between the stowed position and the deployed position. The drive assembly defines a maximum elevation of the first end of the ramp panel when the operable ramp is in the deployed position and also defines a minimum elevation of the first end of the ramp panel when the operable ramp is in the stowed position. The maximum elevation is selectively adjustable relative to the minimum elevation.
