BraunAbility Conversions

Braun Entervan

Designed and engineered for the best in safety and reliability, it's really no wonder the Chrysler/Dodge Entervan has been the star of the BraunAbility fleet for over 20 years. This classic conversion is easy to operate and offers a spacious interior for greater maneuverability. The Entervan features a power auto-kneel system, lowered driver side sliding door sill, easy-out front passenger and drive seats under carriage spare tire storage and more.

·        Auto Door - The wheelchair van's sliding door opens reliably at the touch of a button. This feature can be activated with the standard keychain remote, or with one of the interior control switches.

·        Foldout Ramp - The lightweight aluminum ramp extends to allow easy access to the interior for wheelchairs and scooters. A durable, non-skid powder-coated finish ensures superior traction, and the slotted surface helps to prevent your chair from tracking debris into your Entervan or RampVan handicap van. In the event of power failure, the ramp can be operated manually.

·        Auto Kneel - To make boarding even easier, BraunAbility handicap vans feature an integrated "kneeling" system. An actuator lowers the rear suspension while the door opens, which reduces the slope of the auto ramp.

·        Remote Control - The door, ramp and kneeling functions can be activated by the van's original key remote control. Just press the passenger sliding door button twice, and everything operates automatically.

·        Lowered Floor - From the firewall to the rear axle, the wheelchair van's floor is up to 10" lower than conventional minivans. With a choice of seating positions, wheelchair users can choose to ride in their chair and enjoy the view.

·        Removable Seating - For those who wish to ride up front or even drive from their wheelchair, BraunAbility makes it easy: simply unlock the seat base and roll the entire seat out of the handicap van. The seats can be reinstalled into the Entervan and RampVan just as easily when needed.

·        Rear Cargo Area - On the Chrysler Entervan wheelchair vans, two under-floor storage compartments keep the spare tire and other essentials out of your way until needed, leaving plenty of space for luggage and cargo.

·        Wheelchair Tie Downs - Each wheelchair van includes a standard floor-track and belt system that secures the wheelchair for transit. An optional retractable belt system, pictured at left, is a versatile and convenient option. Independent users can even elect to have an automatic tie-down installed. Due to the wide variety of wheelchairs and tie-down systems available, we recommend that you check with your nearest Jay Hatfield Mobility Specialist to determine which system will work best for you and your handicapped van.

Braun Rampvan

The Toyota Sienna with BraunAbility's RampVan Conversion offers wheelchair accessible travel in one of the safest, most dependable chassis on the road today.

This popular conversion features an automatic kneeling system which lowers the rear suspension and allows for a gentle ramp slope.

EnterVan XT

The Entervan XT is the perfect mobility solution for individuals who sit higher in their wheelchairs. With over 56" of clearance through the sliding door – a full four inches more than the standard Entervan – this conversion makes it easier for many wheelchair users to enter and exit the vehicle. Up to 61" of interior clearance provides extra headroom and greater visibility. A convenient fold-down footrest gives backseat passengers a more comfortable ride too.
