How to Make a Van Wheelchair Accessible

How to Make a Van Wheelchair Accessible

Making a vehicle wheelchair accessible involves more than adding a ramp. Start with the passenger or driver, the mobility equipment, and the way the vehicle will be used.

Check vehicle suitability

The model, year, mileage, condition, and available space help determine whether a conversion is possible. A mobility advisor can review the vehicle before work is planned.

Plan access and seating

Compare entry direction, ramp or lift operation, seating positions, wheelchair securement, and any transfer or driving equipment. Consider parking space and everyday loading.

Arrange professional installation

Discuss the conversion process, inspection, warranty, and equipment demonstration with the provider. Contact AMS Vans to explore the options for your vehicle.
