Easily get into and out of your wheelchair van with wheelchair lifts. At Van Products, we sell wheelchair lifts that are designed for side-entry wheelchair vans as well as rear entry wheelchair vans.
Wheelchair lifts come in several styles to accommodate different mobility needs and vehicle layouts. Platform lifts are the most common, using a sturdy, full-size platform to raise and lower the wheelchair smoothly into the vehicle. These may be standard platforms or folding platforms, which fold upright when not in use to save space and improve visibility. Under-Vehicle Lifts (UVLs) store the lift mechanism underneath the van, keeping the interior clear while still offering reliable, powered access. You’ll also find both single-arm and dual-arm lifts, with dual-arm systems providing greater strength and stability for larger wheelchairs.
Among the most trusted options on the market is the BraunAbility Millennium Series, a fully hydraulic, heavy-duty platform lift known for its durability, smooth operation, and compatibility with many full-size vans. Together, these lift types give Raleigh-area drivers and caregivers flexibility in finding the ideal mobility solution.
Before deciding to buy a wheelchair lift, we highly recommend that you speak to one of our mobility specialists. Typically, there are two types of wheelchair lifts: single-arm wheelchair lifts and double arm wheelchair lifts.
Choose the Right Wheelchair Lift for Your Needs
Wheelchair lifts consist of a mechanical platform that lifts the user (and their wheelchair/scooter) into the van. Single-arm wheelchair lifts allow for more space on the passenger side of your wheelchair van. However, this type of wheelchair lift cannot support as much weight as a double-arm wheelchair lift.
On the other hand, double-arm wheelchair lifts can support more combined weight (up to 800 pounds). Before you buy, consider how much combined weight (weight of the person plus the weight of the wheelchair/scooter) will be placed on the wheelchair lift. We encourage you to speak to one of our mobility specialists for guidance as well as to answer any additional questions you may have.
Often, if a person is heavier, the better option will be a dual-arm wheelchair lift. Dual-arm wheelchair lifts are usually mounted in the rear of the wheelchair van to allow easier maneuverability for both the user and the wheelchair.
