Large Wheelchair Accessible Swing – Gondola Swing for Powered & Larger Wheelchairs
Gondola swing for standard and powered wheelchairs, with a 1.02 m ramp and seven-point safety system. BS EN 1176 certified, for supervised sites.
Overview
The larger version of our wheelchair gondola swing, sized for powered and larger wheelchairs as well as standard chairs. The wider ramp (about 1.02 m clear) lets the chair roll into the gondola, where its brake is set; the ramp is then raised with side chains and locked by the handrail and ring. The rider starts and stops the swing with pull ropes. A seven-point safety system — key lock, entry skid, ramp gas spring, damping actuator, tilt-limiting clutches, ramp-locking ring and rubber bumpers — keeps the motion controlled, and a RADAR key is available. The hot-dip galvanised, powder-coated frame is built for public use. Suitable from 18 months with a 500 kg weight limit, it is designed for supervised sites such as SEN schools, council parks and inclusive play areas. Certified to BS EN 1176.
