2 Types of Layouts of a wheelchair-accessible van
There are two kinds of entry layouts and they are- 1. Side-Entry and 2. Rear-Entry. The entry location effects parking options, wheelchair seating positions, storage availability, and the ability to provide with accommodation to other fellow passengers.
1. SIDE ENTRY-
The 3 Advantages of a side-entry configuration are-
• The skill to drive from a wheelchair or sit in the front passenger position in a wheelchair or driver position.
• Entry and exit curbside away from traffic.
• Excessive storage space.
Its only disadvantage is that it requires a handicap parking space or extra room for ramp deployment and that some driveways are not wide enough to accommodate the vehicle. So, more than 80% of second hand wheelchair-accessible vans use a side-entry configuration.
2. REAR ENTRY- The purpose for which a rear-entry configuration is used is for attended appliances where the wheelchair occupant is not driving the vehicle instead riding as a passenger.
The 2 Advantages of a rear-entry vehicle are-
• With the exclusion of parallel parking, no added room is needed for a ramp.
• The side passenger doors are not obstructed if a folding-style ramp is installed. In fact, mid-passenger seats can be ascended next to the wheelchair position.
• More ground clearance and more room for long wheelchairs and leg rests.
The 3 Disadvantages of the rear-entry style are-
• The requirement to enter and exit from a traffic area
• The lack of proficiency to drive from the wheelchair and also to have the wheelchair in the front passenger position.
• Limited storage space.
