Emergency evacuation chairs from Equal Access

Equal Access Disability Access Consultants division Evacuation Chairs Australia are now distributors for Garaventa Evacu-Trac - emergency evacuation chairs.

In an emergency such as a fire or an earthquake, elevators should not be used. People with limited mobility may be trapped. Garaventa's Evacu-Trac CD7 provides a lifeline to safety.

During an emergency, the passenger is transferred from their wheelchair to the Evacu-Trac Evacuation Chair. Once positioned in the Evacu-Trac, velcro straps are wrapped securely around the passenger's torso and lower legs. The passenger is then wheeled to the stairway for descent.

The evacuation chairs are used to move people with a disability or injury down stairways quickly and safely during an emergency. Evacu-Trac's patented speed governor and braking system allow a small attendant to easily evacuate a larger passenger.
