Optional Ramp Ideas?

I have a second level and am about to build a ramp for it. I received a suggestion to bend 2 grids, attach with cable ties, layer with cardboard and fleece....that may be my only option at the moment....but I really didnt want to bend up my grids since I have a limited number of them left already. Are there any other ideas without bending the grids?
Thanks for any help!
 
Some people here used coroplast that they measured and folded on each side similiar to a grid then placed something on top so its not slippery.
 
I just used two peices coroplast 4.5" wide hot glued together with fleece on top, works fine.
 
I used a wood plank with two holes on one of the ends which I attached to the second level with zip ties. I covered it in the green turf stuff for traction with a staple gun. Worked great, even though it sounds like a bit of work.
 
Like kalrik said you can use a peice of long wood. I'm sure you'll find one lying around in your garage. You can then cover it in carpet or something similar
 
Thanks for all the good ideas!
 
Drawer organizers work well. That is what I have. You just have to use wire cutters to snip the ends.
 
I had an old carpet remnant that I used on my ramp. I just cut into into a strip as wide as the ramp and stapled it down. Also, it pulls up pretty easy if the carpet gets too terribly soiled, and then I just put a new strip down.
