The other ES at my airport is owned by a guy in his 70s and he's got a steeper ramp.  He has a winch at the back wall of his hangar and a long control cable to the switch.  He has the IV jack points and installs tie down rings, hooks up his winch cable and pulls the ES into his hangar with one hand on the switch and the other on the tow bar steering.  Works pretty well and wasn't that expensive.  He still has to maneuver his plane so it's relatively lined up with the center line of the hangar and has to crawl under and deal with the tie downs and the cable every time.
