Making transfers into the car easier

When transferring from a wheelchair onto a car seat, a certain distance that often involves a difference in height needs to be overcome. Suitable aids make the transfer easier.

Our solutions

  • The Turnout is a swivel platform that makes it possible to swivel the car seat over the threshold of the vehicle door when getting in or out. There are versions for two-door and four-door vehicles. The Turnout swivel seat is CE certified, crash-tested and approved for loads of up to 250 kg. The Turnout swivel seat is mounted on a base that uses the attachment elements of the original seat. This means that removing it is not a problem when changing one's vehicle. The Turnout swivel seat can be ideally combined with the Carony system where the seat is docked with a wheel unit.

  • The Turny Low is a swivel base that rotates and moves the car seat out of the door opening to enable a sideways transfer. The Turny is suitable for vehicles with a normal access height. This system is installed on a console that uses the attachment elements of the original seat. This means that removing it is not a problem when changing one's vehicle. The Turny swivel seat can be ideally combined with the Carony system where the seat is docked with a wheel unit.

  • The Turny EVO swivel base is a swivel and lifting system that swivels the car seat out of the door opening and lowers it to the desired height to allow sideways access. The Turny is suitable for vehicles with higher access, such as multi-purpose vehicles, SUVs, minibuses and vans. This system is installed on a console that uses the attachment elements of the original seat. This means that removing it is not a problem when changing one's vehicle. The Turny swivel seat can be ideally combined with the Carony system where the seat is docked with a wheel unit.

  • The Carony transport wheelchair makes it possible to get in and out of the car without having to get out of the chair. Instead you can remain seated in your chair, while the base frame of the wheelchair is pushed onto the swivel seat on tracks. In just a few steps, the Carony user with the chair is pushed into the passenger seat by the base frame of the wheelchair. The light base frame can then simply be stowed in the boot. In cars with higher floors, such as minivans or SUVs, the Carony can be combined with the Turny swivel and lifting base, which can be lowered outside the car.

  • The transfer board is installed permanently on the B pillar of the car. It can be unfolded and attached to either the driver's side or the passenger side. The transfer board is padded to avoid the risk of pressure sores. It can also be dismantled if required.

    The electric, height-adjustable transfer board can be used to overcome a difference in height between the wheelchair and the driver's seat or as a stand-up aid. It can be swung to the side to allow able-bodied people to get in without issues.

  • The six-way seat adjustment makes the transfer from the wheelchair to the driver's seat easier. The seat is moved backwards and turned and can be adjusted in terms of its height. This makes it possible to bring it as close to the wheelchair as possible. A foot support can also be mounted.
