BraunAbility Chair Topper® Wheelchair Car Rack
Enhanced storage for foldable manual wheelchairs, the Chair Topper is an innovative solution, designed to sit atop your vehicle and keeps your wheelchair safe and interior clean.
Think of this as valet service for your wheelchair! This convenient car top wheelchair car rack is an ideal solution for both drivers and passengers who would prefer their wheelchair not take up much-needed seating or storage space in their vehicle.
Once you’ve transferred into your car, the BraunAbility Chair Topper wheelchair car rack conveniently lifts and stores your wheelchair in the weatherproof rooftop compartment. And when you’re ready to exit, your wheelchair is retrieved and brought back to ground level at the push of a button. A convenient handheld control operates the folding, lifting, and storing of your wheelchair. It takes only 30 seconds to complete the cycle, and your wheelchair (and you) will be saved from the wear and tear of constant transfers.
