Turnout
Turnout
Swivels the car seat out towards the user.
The Turnout is a swivel seat designed for those who find it difficult to enter a vehicle or make a transfer from the wheelchair. Installed as a layer between the vehicle’s floor and the car seat the Turnout enables the car seat to be rotated facing outwards. An added bonus is that the rotated seat will be a little bit further out, in other words closer to the user.
Out of all our Swivel Seats, this is the simplest and most economical solution. It is suitable for both drivers and passengers and is available with manual swivel as Turnout and with powered swivel as Turnout E. Both models come in either a 2-door or 4-door version.
Frequently Asked Questions
The answers to the questions we most regularly get asked. See our FAQs page for more or contact us team for anything more specific.
A Swivel Seat is a seat within a vehicle that has been adapted in such a way that, as the name suggests, it can be swivelled by 90 degrees; so that it faces directly out of the door of the vehicle. This makes it very easy for someone to lower themselves into the seat, without having to bend and twist as they manoeuvre under the arch of the door. Some swivel seats also feature a powered up/down motion to make transferring even easier.
Prices for Swivel Seats can vary depending on factors like the vehicle in question. Through the Motability Scheme these adaptations are also subsidised. To quickly get an accurate price please contact us on 01332 863742.

Most swivel seats operate in very similar ways. There are a few differences between different make/models though. If you have never used a swivel seat before we would advise you to contact us to arrange a free demonstration, with no obligation. You can either visit us at our premises in Derbyshire or we can arrange for one of our specialists to come to your home.
