Wheelchair Accessible Van Modifications
Modifications for Drivers
For individuals with disabilities who rely on wheelchairs or other mobility devices, a disability-modified van can provide numerous benefits. Firstly, it can greatly improve the driver's independence and mobility, allowing them to travel more freely and comfortably without relying on others. These vans typically come equipped with features such as wheelchair ramps, lifts, and tie-downs, making it easier for the driver to enter and exit the vehicle, secure their mobility device, and operate the controls.
Modifications for Carers
For carers who transport people with mobility devices, a disability-modified van can also offer significant advantages. These vans can provide a safe and comfortable environment for the passenger, with ample space for their mobility device and any additional equipment or supplies they may need. This can make it easier for carers to transport their clients or loved ones without having to worry about the logistics and safety concerns associated with using a standard vehicle.
Customised For Your Needs
Mobility Device Lifters
-
Our full-size lifter options are easy to deploy and stow away with push button controls. Full-size options are more affordable but obstruct the window view on the side or rear of the vehicle. Different sizes are available depending on the vehicle and weight capacities.
-
Our Split Platform options split horizontally on the platform to allow for unobstructed view of the rear or side windows. Different size options available depending on vehicle and weight capacity.
-
Walkthrough Lifters split vertically to allow for access into the vehicle from the side or rear. The walkthrough design allows for an unobstructed view and save space inside the vehicle.
-
Cassette-style external lifters sit underneath the vehicle. They are waterproof with a discrete design and no internal noise from an internal lifter. Cassette lifters may require additional suspension lifts to fit and can only be installed into specific vehicles. Get in contact to find out more about the requirements.

Driving Aids
-
Spinner knobs are a type of steering wheel attachment that can be very helpful for people with disabilities that affect their ability to grip and turn the steering wheel. These knobs allow drivers to easily turn the steering wheel with one hand, providing greater control and independence while driving.
-
Electronic hand controls and mechanical hand controls are two types of devices that modify a vehicle's controls for people with disabilities. Electronic hand controls are precise and easy to use but can be more expensive. Mechanical hand controls require more physical effort but are more reliable and less expensive. Both types provide greater independence and mobility for people with disabilities, and the choice between them depends on the individual's needs, preferences, and budget.
