ACCESSIBLE VEHICLE CONVERSION AND OUTFITTING
Accessible vehicle conversion involves far more than technical installation. It is a precise design and engineering process intended to provide freedom of movement, independence, full accessibility and maximum safety.
Shefer-Bar specialises in comprehensive, custom-made accessible vehicle solutions—from the initial engineering assessment to the delivery of a fully converted and equipped vehicle, precisely adapted to the individual needs of the driver or passengers.
As part of the conversion and adaptation process, every vehicle is customised according to the user’s physical and functional requirements:
• Customised driving solutions: Installation of adapted steering systems, hand controls, specialised pedals and assistive control systems that enable safe and convenient driving.
• Vehicle access systems: Installation of wheelchair lifts, advanced wheelchair restraint systems, and hydraulic or electric lifting mechanisms designed to provide smooth and comfortable entry and exit.
• Intelligent interior outfitting: Redesign of the vehicle’s interior, ergonomic seating configurations, and dedicated climate-control and electrical systems to improve safety, accessibility and passenger comfort.
For institutions, transportation companies, local authorities and private clients, choosing an accessible vehicle converted and outfitted by Shefer-Bar provides a professional solution designed to meet the stringent requirements of the Israeli Ministry of Transport and the Standards Institution of Israel.
Our projects include the conversion of accessible passenger transport vehicles and large vans, incorporating active and passive safety systems to protect drivers and passengers.
The installation of wheelchair lifts and the vehicle’s complete interior outfitting are carried out with an emphasis on ease of use, mechanical reliability and intuitive operation.
Our goal is to provide a safe, simple and dignified driving or travel experience—both for everyday use and over many years of operation.
This is a process that restores control, confidence and independence by transforming individual physical and functional requirements into a precise, accessible and safe mobility solution.
