The SCW Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle
At Stanford Coachworks we offer a wide variety of wheelchair accessible conversions in a range of different sizes. With 30 years of experience, our bespoke conversions are custom-built to meet each individual client’s requirements.
Due to our unique design approach, our vehicles are well trusted by many of the UK’s local authorities. We have had the pleasure of working with a southern-based local authority for in excess of 25 years now and we were delighted to once again deliver a new wheelchair accessible minibus to them earlier this week.
The Conversion
Their latest two conversions, based on the Mercedes Sprinter L3H2 can facilitate up to 10 passengers plus driver or 3 wheelchairs with seats removed. This particular vehicle was delivered with 6 passenger seats, ready to transport wheelchair users, however it is certified to carry up to 10 passengers. This gives the local authority the flexibility to install additional seats held at their depot as required. The vehicle also features an underfloor tail lift, our exclusive SCW fold-out low-entry side step, Eberspaecher heating and air conditioning, wheelchair restraint storage boxes and LED interior lighting.
The Flat Floor Conversion
Our customers vehicles also feature our specialist Flat Floor which is expertly designed to eliminate all wheel arch intrusions in the passenger saloon. This results in additional unrestricted space for passenger seats and wheelchairs. You can find out more about our Flat Floor conversions by clicking here.
