Car modifications

Disability Vehicle Hand Controls

RADIAL & PUSH/PULL HAND CONTROLS

We offer different options for hand control modifications for disability vehicles.  Radial controls allow downward movement to operate the accelerator, and push forward action for braking. The Push/Pull design has no downward movement with a simple push for braking and pull for acceleration.

Both designs are custom manufactured for your vehicle and your individual requirements, meaning a more comfortable and tailored driving experience.  Talk to us about your requirements.

PUSH/ROCK HAND CONTROLS

The Push/Rock system puts the operating handle in a vertical position; the handle is eased back to accelerate and pushed forward to brake.
​
This unique rocking motion allows full-range braking and acceleration with minimal hand travel while keeping the hand in a natural position. Contact us for further details.

FADIEL HAND CONTROLS

This type of control is operated by pushing the lever for brake and pulling the trigger for acceleration. The light action of the trigger eliminates fatigue and provides the option of holding the steering wheel with two hands while controlling the accelerator trigger with the little finger.

 The safety cut out mechanism cancels the accelerator should the accelerator and brake be applied simultaneously.
 
Different features can be added such as lights, indicators and horn
. Get in touch to discuss your requirements. ​

SATELLITE ACCELERATOR

​While driving with the Satellite Accelerator, both hands remain on the steering wheel with easy reach of the brake lever, gear lever, auxiliary commands on the dashboard and steering wheel, and flaps for sequential gearshift.

Acceleration is achieved by lightly pressing the thumb against a small lever that interfaces with the vehicles original electronic system, commonly known as ‘fly-by-wire’. 
 
Wireless versions are also available. Talk to us to hear more about this custom modification.

TURNY SEAT

​​The Turny Seat is a lift that moves the car seat completely outside the vehicle and lowers it down to your desired level. Once you're seated, push a button and the Turny Seat will lift you inside the car. It's a simple yet very effective way to make your car more accessible.

​The Turny Seat can be installed in the front passenger seat or in the mid row. It can also be transferred to another car.
 
The Turny Seat isn't just a solution for wheelchair users, it's for anyone that needs a little help getting in and out of their car.   Contact us to see if a Turny Seat is right for you.
Disability Vehicle Wheelchair Transfer Plate

TRANSFER BENCH

The manual transfer bench serves as a transfer bridge between the car seat and wheelchair, making it easier to get in and out of the car. It can be installed on either the driver side or the passenger side and does not require replacement of the seat.

It is available in two different versions; the manual removable tip-up plate, where the plate can be removed when traveling, and the electric height adjustable version.  Get in touch for more information.

MANUAL STEP

The manual step improves the ease of transfer from the wheelchair to the car seat and can be installed on any car door. If you need a little assistance getting in or out of your vehicle, the manual step is an excellent option. Contact us for more information.
