Wheelchair Conversion Vans

Handicap-accessible vans and other vehicles with adaptive driving modifications make it possible for those with disabilities to continue to drive safely and comfortably.

Wheelchair-Accessible Vans Are Just One Option

A wheelchair-accessible van has a lowered floor or raised roof to provide headroom, tie or lockdowns to keep the wheelchair in place and a ramp or lift to allow for easier entry and exit from the vehicle. Wheelchair accessibility, though, is just one of the many adaptations that can be made to a vehicle to make it easier and safer for those with disabilities to use.

Pedal extenders are available for those who cannot reach the pedals at standard distance. Left leg accelerators allow those who cannot use their right foot to control both brake and accelerator easily with the left foot. For those who cannot use standard pedals at all, hand controls can replace both brake and accelerator.

Those who have difficulty gripping the steering wheel have several options: knobs, palm grips, wrist cuffs, floor-mounted steering and joystick controls. Switches and controls can be altered to be used with either hand, either all right or all left. Siren alarms allow hard-of-hearing drivers to better recognize emergency vehicles and bioptics help those with vision impairment.
