Access equipment manufacturer EZ-ACCESS is expanding its catalog of accessibility and mobility solutions by adding a line of external power vehicle lifts for scooters and power wheelchairs.
The launch is related to EZ-ACCESS’s acquisition of Mesa, Ariz.-based Worldwide Mobility, which has been a manufacturer of the American-made scooter and power wheelchair lifts for more than 25 years. The acquisition is also expected to mark the beginning of an expansion of EZ-ACCESS product lines as part of the company’s mission to meet the needs of the entire accessibility market.
“Over the past 30 years, EZ-ACCESS has made every effort to offer our customers the highest quality and most complete line of residential, portable, threshold, and modular ramps,” said EZ-ACCESS CEO Don Everard. “With the introduction of the PASSPORT Vertical Platform Lift in 2014 and now the addition of external power vehicle lifts, we remain committed to offering our customers a complete line of products for all access solutions.”
The external power vehicle lifts are designed to make the transportation of scooters and power chairs fast and efficient. The durable lifts feature simple installation and operation, and adjust to most vehicles and models of power chairs and scooters.
Celebrating its 30th anniversary EZ-ACCESS, also plans to move the manufacturing of the popular line of lifts to its Algona, Wash., headquarters. The company anticipates adding additional employees and production space to meet increased demand.
