Choosing a Vehicle Wheelchair Lift

So you have your new mobility scooter or power wheelchair and you are ready to hit the road and see the sites, right? Unless you have also purchased the proper wheelchair or scooter carrier for your vehicle, then it is going to be a short trip. Many forget that a crucial part of maintaining mobility includes not only the mobility device itself but also the carrier or lift that enables transportation of the device.

Vehicle wheelchair lifts are categorized into two major groups: external and internal lifts. External lifts allow your scooter or wheelchair to be securely mounted to the outside of the vehicle using a trailer hitch. This is often preferable if there is not enough room for the wheelchair or scooter inside of the vehicle. Typically, external lifts are manually operated and do not require any hard wiring to the vehicle battery. External wheelchair lifts are more economical than internal since there is no motor required to lift the mobility device. Internal lifts are designed for larger vehicles such as vans or SUV’s and allow the wheelchair or scooter to be lifted and placed inside of the vehicle. If you plan on doing a lot of traveling with your mobility scooter or power chair, then you may consider using an internal lift over an external one. An internal wheelchair lift provides added protection from the weather and added security. Most all internal vehicle wheelchair lifts are mounted inside the vehicle, although some are available that mount to a trailer hitch similar to an external lift.

When shopping for a wheelchair carrier, there are a few things that you will need to know on order to find the right one for your needs. First, know the model and brand of scooter or wheelchair that you will be lifting. Some mobility devices may require a special docking device in order to be lifted into your vehicle. Also be sure you know the exact make, model, and year of your vehicle. This is especially important when purchasing an internal wheelchair lift. For external lifts and carriers, be aware that you will need a Class II or III trailer hitch installed on your vehicle. The class of hitch depends on the weight capacity that you will need. Class II hitches typically have 350 lb capacity while class III are rated for 500 lbs.
