Ambulettes for Wheelchair Transport

National Van has been building the highest quality ambulettes, wheelchair accessible vans and shuttle vans in the industry since 1997. As a member of the Ford motor pool, National can pass chassis dealer pricing directly to our customers and ensure faster turnaround for your vehicles. We also produce vehicles using GM, Ram Promaster and Mercedes Sprinter chassis. Every vehicle is customized to our customer’s needs and specifications while being fully ADA, FMVSS and Ford QVM compliant.

What is an ambulette?

An ambulette is the same size as a Type II ambulance but is used for non-emergency transportation. These handicapped accessible vans are typically used by ambulance companies, adult day care centers, nursing homes, hospitals and medical transportation providers for transporting both ambulatory and wheelchair passengers.

Why Choose National Van Builders for your Ambulette?

Ford’s quality vehicle modifier requires that we re-certify annually with Ford and prove our competence. Ford offers Mobility Rebates which are only available from a QVM certified company.
Every ambulette we build meets ADA and FMVSS standards.
Customized layouts to you specific needs. National works with each customer to determine the best vehicle layout for wheelchair lift, seats and mobility components to suit their needs. For customers desiring additional flexibility, National offers the AbiliTrax modular flooring platform which allows you to change your vehicle’s seating configuration allowing you to quickly move, add or remove seats.

As the Executive Director of a Municipal Service in SW Michigan, Medic 1 Ambulance has been buying Wheelchair Vans from National Van Builders since 1995, since that time we have purchased a total of 25 vans till now, we currently have a total of nine wheelchair units build by National Vans in service. We have found them to very dependable and reliable, the vehicles have always had great fit and finish with the Ford Econoline Van; currently we have two of the new Ford Transits and National Vans has done an excellent job in the transformation of this vehicle into a wheelchair van. We have had an obvious very long standing working relationship with National Van Builders and I see it continuing for many more years in the future.
