Does the ramp need to be anchored to steps/ground/etc, or can it simply be pushed against the step but still free-standing?

While it comes with mounting screws, you could anchor it, but since I would need to go through the threshold and then concrete, I didnt do so, and it has worked just fine.

It does not need to be anchored, but you of course have the option to as well.

I don't think so. It needs a level straight path. It's also pretty heavy and not that easy to separate into the two sections. My wife cannot set it up. Small wheels at the bottom would be a good idea if they would contact the ground when the ramp is being removed from the top side.

Yes, but if it was left out all the time, it would move out of place unless fastened. There are two holes at the top of the ramp that can be used for nails or screws, which would be difficult in concrete.

yes, it's detached. Unless you glue them together, it always comes off the ramp when moved.

The base alone is 28" and the ramp extends to 44 1/2. You do not have to attach the ramp if you don't have room. My cats don't even use it. It has a pretty compact footprint if you don't use the ramp, and it is stable. I don't think you would have a stability issue without the ramp.

I haven't tried but once to move it. It was easy as it has wheels! If no stairs, you're good!!!

It would need to be pushed into the ground, or somehow weighted down, to keep it standing upright. Mine has been fine by simply pushing it into the dirt.

Yes but it has a latch on the top to stabilize it so it doesn't slide when the dog gets on it, so I would make sure it wouldn't slide by putting something rubber on the base of the ramp. Mine has never slid but I have only used it with the base being on concrete, stones and grass. When I walked on it up the steps in my house, the base was on a rug that has rubber backing.

I have used it with a powered wheelchair without drilling holes and using the pins, since the ramp had to be removed and stored after each use.

It doesn't have to be anchored you can just push it in the ground but if you live in a windy area I would probably anchor it. It is light weight and we anchored ours because it was convenient for us. We also bought baskets on amazon and hung them on each side and that weighed it down quite a bit.

No, it has no way to be anchored to the ground..... mine honestly didn't last long I would look around to try and get a better one!

it stays where it's needed, so yes. If you do a good job of setting it up it should never move. I did my best to follow instructions and it took me awhile to see that I was missing a step.

My ramp is permanently installed in my garage. But the thing is lightweight and portable enough to take up and put down as you see fit... if thats what you wanna do.

We attached it to "The Little Giant" 17ft ladder. Since it goes on the end of the extension - 'the feet' - there is no way to attach it to the step of a step ladder.

Six steps may be a bit long. Will depend on your steps. I recommend that you measure it out. The ramp is plastic and should weather the elements well.

It would set up on a hard surface it has no spikes to anchor it to the ground just feet. It needs weighting down in any sort of wind - a sandbag or dumbell or something.

No. It has to be anchored. Its difficult to set up. I bought 3 of them and ended up giving 2 of them to Goodwill.
