Swivel Seats for disabled drivers and passengers

Free assessment service

Swivel seats do not work for everyone – and with only one in every three people making a viable candidate for a swivel seat, it is vital that every client has had a full demonstration and assessment with us. This free-of-charge service enables us to determine: which type of swivel seat will best meet a customer’s needs and the suitability of the vehicle being considered.

Swivel Seat

Standard swivel seats

There are a number of variations of the standard swivel seat available, from fully manual to fully programmable. Semi manual and/or electric versions are also available.

Manual

Manual swivel seats are the base model, with a manually operated swivel and forward/backward movement. In many cases this is all that is needed.

Models include: Turnout Manual and RTRAN Manual

Electric

These seats are available with electric swivel function, electric forward/backward movement, or a combination of both.

Models include: Turnout Electric and RTRAN Electric

Programmable

Unlike manual and electric swivel seats, a programmable seat is fully automated. To maximise leg room our technicians will programme the seat’s movements for each vehicle individually. This allows these seats to be fitted in a wider range of vehicles than most other swivel seats.

Models include: Turny Low Vehicle and RTRAN Programmable.

Lowering swivel seats

These swivel seats turn out 90 degrees from the vehicle, then electrically lower to allow easier transfer from a wheelchair, or from standing. Because they lower, these models are suitable for vehicles with higher seating positions (e.g. MPVs and SUVs).

The swivel function can either be manual or electric, or the seat can be fully programmable.

Manual Swivel

These models swivel in and out of the vehicle manually, whilst the up/down movements are controlled electrically.

Models include: Turny HD

Electric Swivel

These seats swivel in and out of the car electrically, then also lift up and down electrically.

Models include: Turny Orbit

Programmable

Unlike manual and electric swivel seats, a programmable seat is fully automated. It will swivel out of the vehicle and lower, all at the touch of a button. To maximise leg room our technicians will programme the seat’s movements for each vehicle individually. This means that these seats can be fitted in a wider range of vehicles than most.

Models include: Turny Evo and DTRAN

The Carony Wheelchair System

The Carony is a wheelchair system that is compatible with the majority of swivel seats. Designed for people who struggle to transfer from their wheelchair into a swivel seat, these systems feature glide rails that allow the car seat to slide onto a wheelchair base. The seat then detaches, allowing it to be used as an everyday wheelchair.
Models include: Carony Classic, which operates with a manual wheelchair base; Carony Go, which is designed for use with an electric wheelchair base; Carony Kids and Carony GS, which are designed specifically for children.
