Build your own wheelchair accessible van

Technology has truly changed the way people interact with the rest of the world. Advances in the field of information and technology, science, electronics, etc. has had an impact on the lives of almost everyone on this planet. This has led to a growing consciousness of equality among people. Efforts are being made to embrace those who were previously marginalized.

In this context, it is necessary to mention the work being done for the disabled. All efforts are being made to make their environment more accessible so that they are not left out from any aspect of life. Public places, work places, sports, travelling, etc. have all been made accessible for people with mobility challenges.

We now live in a time when a disabled person doesn’t even have to leave their home to purchase a wheelchair accessible van. Most online vendors of mobility equipment, especially vehicles, offer online services where you can customize your van according to your needs.

Online accessible vehicle dealerships that specialize in wheelchair accessible vans have a separate page where you can build your own van. Just follow the basic instructions and you will have the ideal wheelchair accessible van. Here are a few ideas about what to expect:

Conversion

The first thing that you will most probably have to do is pick the type of conversion you want for your wheelchair accessible van. The usual conversions are either in-floor ramps that slide out to give access to wheelchairs or ones that fold out once the van door opens. Due to issues of space some conversions might not be compatible with particular models of vans.

Pick your van

Once you have locked down on your conversion, pick the wheelchair accessible van you want. Remember, if the conversion you’ve picked is too sophisticated you might not have too many options while choosing the make of your van.

Choosing the model

Any reputable online vendor will at least have a few models of the wheelchair accessible van you have chosen. Pick the one that suits your needs and budget the most.

Choose the color of your van

Online dealerships give you a choice of all the colors that the original van comes in. You will have to choose from among the usual colors for vans.

Extra modifications

In the final section of the customization process, you can pick any other modifications you want for your wheelchair accessible van. There are many other conversions that can be made to a van if your need is for more than just a ramp for a wheelchair. In this last section expect to find the following options:

• Seats that can move through 120 degrees for a safe and easy transfer from the wheelchair to the front passenger’s or driver’s seat.
• Special rubberized flooring that gives traction for wheelchairs.

While you choose the specifications of your wheelchair accessible van, an automatic bill is generated that depicts the price of the van and the conversions you pick.
