Wheelchair Accessibility: Innovating to Meet Your Unique Needs

At Van Products, we pride ourselves on our strong history of personalized service. Having helped increase mobility and quality of life for handicapped people by not only providing wheelchair accessible vans in Raleigh and across North Carolina for over 20 years, but also by staying a part of our customers’ community and life and helping with their vans in whatever way they need. We have seen and introduced many innovations in this time, and intend on staying at the forefront of creative solutions!

Though we sell and rent handicap accessible vans, we also have a strong van conversion system – one of the best in the world. Our wheelchair accessible vans’ sliding doors open easily and reliably with just a light touch of a button done via switches in the interior, or by a keychain remote. We also offer an auto-kneeling function, allowing the van to automatically lower, drastically reducing the slope of the ramp and easing access to the vehicle.

Over the years we have researched and tested one of the most important parts of wheelchair accessible vans – the ramp. The improvements to this device are clear. Our latest range of ramps is made from a lightweight aluminum that gracefully extends to offer an easy access to the vehicle. Now we have two options – an Infloor and a Foldout ramp. Each can be operated manually in the case of a power failure, and offer an unparalleled smoothness and elegance.

One of the most important parts of a wheelchair accessible van is the height and headroom afforded to the wheelchair passenger, and our improved designs have led to some of the lowest floors available in the word. Our wheelchair vans’ floors are up to 10” lower than you would find in a standard mini-van, offering comfort and an excellent view.

At Van Products, we will continue to innovate, improve, and offer you the premium options for mobility on the market. We are proud of our achievements, and we will continue to work at excelling in providing world-class mobility solutions in the future. Want to come take a look at some of our options?
