It is their belief that everyone should be able to do the things they want to do that inspires the Mobility Resource to provide individuals with a wheel chair lift that gives them more options for mobility. They can provide you with a handicap lift system for your vehicle that makes it easier to transport or be transported. They will provide you with a wheel chair lift that is easy to lift, store, and allow transportation of your unoccupied wheelchair, scooter or power chair with every type of vehicle. These incredible products make lifting and transporting your wheel chair virtually effortless. You can also easily remove a wheel chair lift if you decide to resale your vehicle or if you want it installed in a different vehicle.

A Swing-Arm Style wheel chair lift uses a mechanical arm to lift and swing the wheelchair into and out of the vehicle. This is an electric-powered system that means there's no need for any manual lifting. It has a webbing strap that attaches to the wheelchair via a docking device that is provided by the lift manufacturer. The lift will raise and lower the unoccupied wheelchair effortlessly by using the electric motor powered by the vehicle's battery. The swinging motion of the wheel chair lift can be either manual or power-assisted when you just push a button to lift the wheelchair causing the arm to move it into the vehicle. The arm will raise the wheel chair, swing it away from the vehicle, and lower it to the ground for use again.

There is also a Platform Style wheel chair lift that uses a platform to raise and lower the unoccupied wheel chair. Just drive your wheel chair onto the platform while it sets on the ground. Just push the button and an arm secures the wheel chair and raises the platform off the ground. Depending on the model, the platform will either remain outside the vehicle for transport or you can stow it inside the vehicle. Another push of the button lowers it to the ground and then releases the wheelchair. Then you can just drive off the platform and be on your way! Platforms are designed for forward motion in either direction, eliminating the need to back onto or off the platform.

Any wheel chair lift is a mechanical platform that is designed to raise and lower your wheel chair so that you can access and exit your vehicle. There are a number of different styles of lifts to fit most individual needs and lifestyles. A wheel chair lift can provide the independence to go where you want when you want to.
