WHEELCHAIR LIFT

Choosing the correct Braun wheelchair lifter (loader) for you and your vehicle requires thought and a comprehensive understanding of the overall application. There are numerous considerations to ensure the safety and ease of transitioning from the ground into and out of the vehicle.Everyone has different needs, so this choice is very important. Not only to satisfy your requirements for today, but also intoyour future. With considered decision making, if there is a change in your requirements, it can be accommodated effectively.

  • The size of the wheelchair (length & width)
  • The style, eg powered, scooter etc.

The Occupant

  • The weight of the occupant
  • The age of the occupant
  • The position (angle) of the occupant when in situ on the wheelchair

Braun Lifter design

  • Solid one piece platforms (Millenium)
  • Vertical split platforms (Vista Split)
  • Horizontal split platforms (Vista)

The vehicle

  • The door opening dimensions
  • The style of rear bumper bar (for lifter deployment clearance)

The operation of the Braun wheelchair lifters is via a remote pendant with 4 buttons, which is designed to be controlled from outside the vehicle at the left hand rear (curb side)

Some models have an extra set of buttons for operation from inside the cabin.
