Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Question about lockdown systems.
I am going through process of getting new electric wheelchair and trying to get
a model that has an ezlock for it.
I have invacare storm series but invacare went bankrupt, and dealer wants me to
switch to Quantum R-TRAK rear wheel drive.Does anybody with ezlock have one for
quantum chair?
I heard that ezlock is making one for R-TRAK but I do not see it on their list
of wheelchairs.
Here is list from Ezlock.

Greetings,
I've never seen a manual wheelchair, using a single post on an EZ Lock System,
for driving or riding. I have seen double wheel securement for riding
wheelchairs. The design of an EZ lock system was designed for drivers and
riders using powered chairs. I would consider going directly to EZ Lock
Securement and getting an answer directly from them rather than a dealer.
Best Wishes.

hi to all ! Past two years been having health issues/skin breakdown, rotator
cuff surgery, recovery, etc. so I have been absent from this group! I hope
everyone is well!
Currently, I’m driving my motorized chair using the easy lock system.
I want to be able to use my manual chair and was advised that I would need the
new Q straint lock down system ( state agreed to install and pay for the pin
for my manual chair. ) the reason being because the easy lock does not make a
pin for my manual chair.
One last thought, the salesman/company who recommended the new lock down system
at First told me it be no problem for me to use my current motorized chair with
the new system( qstraint)
Then weeks later flipped on me and said because of liability the only chair I
could drive from would be my manual chair, and could no longer use the
motorized chair……….
( many months ago also he told me this is just between you and I, but we looked
at the pins and there’s no difference between the pens except colors and the
only trouble I may run into is if I had an accident and tried to come back on
the company who made the pin because I had did not have the pin the
manufacturer requires us to use.
It’s a cumbersome process to navigate so I would appreciate any one willing to
share their experience and would appreciate some assistance!
Thanks ahead of time !!
