Default Shed ramp

So I have a sliding door on the end of my shop. I want to be able to park my cubs inside this door so I dont have to move any cars to get them out the main door. The problem I have is the foundation is 5" above the ground. Im looking for suggestions to build a ramp in order to be able to pull in, keeping in mind I will have to leave a gap for the door to slide though. Ive googled and seen some other ramps but couldnt really find anything similar to what Im trying to accomplish. Thanks in advance...and Im not sure why my pics are sideways

So, I think the other post got deleted.
My suggestion if you did not see it was to set forms and pour a ramp in concrete leaving a gap large enough for door to pass. That small of a gap will not hinder wheeled things like cars or tractors. You could keep a piece of lumber handy to fill the gap when needed. Its either that or altering or cutting the door.

If you go with a curb or a concrete ramp, you might have to address the possibility of the gap filling with snow and ice in winter.
Could possibly freeze your door shut.

That's what I said in his other thread...... that apparently got delete?

I also stated that I'd he poured a concrete approach, it would have to have a footer at the door, or it will hoove up in the winter during freeze and jam the door. But still have the same issue with the door track filling with snow.

A non permanent ramp is best. It's that or rework the door.

No, It's fine. This is the thread he asked to be deleted as a duplicate. I don't understand why the other one is the one that got deleted. Accident I guess?? It had all the posts in it. This one originally just had the first post, and the second asking for deletion.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
