For people who must navigate life in a wheelchair, there are many things that require additional effort that those not in a wheelchair do not have to deal with. This is especially evident when it comes to our freedom and driving. Being in a wheelchair presents unique issues when it comes to driving in Milwaukee and Appleton or even getting into a vehicle as a passenger. Fortunately, there are now wheelchair vans that are accessible as well as wheelchair ramps that allow those in a wheelchair to get into a vehicle easily. Access Elevator now offers wheelchair vans as well as wheelchair ramps to enter those vehicles. Give them a call or stop by one of their showrooms to learn more and see what options are available.

Wheelchair Vans

Just because you are in a wheelchair doesn’t mean that you can’t still drive. The freedom that a vehicle provides is almost unmatched, yet there needs to be a number of modifications to a vehicle in order to get them to a point where they can be driven by a wheelchair-bound individual. This is where Access Elevator shines, as they now offer for sale several modified vans that are wheelchair accessible. In addition to these vehicles, they also offer a shop where modifications can be made to new and used vehicles to make them accessible for the owner. Part of these modifications can include a vehicle ramp that makes it easy for a wheelchair-bound individual to gain access to the vehicle.

Wheelchair Ramps

When you have a modified vehicle that accommodates your wheelchair, you still need a way to get into that vehicle. While there are a few options, the simplest choice is to have a wheelchair ramp that allows you to get into the vehicle yourself. Wheelchair ramps in vehicles can be positioned either at the rear of the vehicle or on the side of the vehicle. These ramps can be automated so that the ramp extends and retracts at the push of a button. Whether the wheelchair-bound person is driving or merely a passenger, having wheelchair ramps as part of the vehicle allows for easy access.
