01 · Dual independent retractors
Two lines — real steering.
Independently controlled retractors let the operator correct drift on the ramp instead of muscling the frame. Better angles, less footrest interference, more space for larger chairs.
Boarding + securement · Maya Inqline
Maya Inqline
When the ramp is the fight — not the paperwork. Dual retractors and thumb control so the operator steers the wheelchair in, instead of shoving, snagging or taking a running start.
What most people never realise
You can buy perfect belts and still injure someone’s back on the ramp.
Families and drivers often describe the same day: kerb is wrong, van is tilted, power chair is heavy, and the “solution” becomes a push that nobody wants to admit. Winches without steering still leave you wrestling the chair sideways. Belts alone do not solve boarding.
Maya Inqline is for that gap — controlled pull and steer up a rear (or side) ramp, with retractors that also support securement once inside. If your chairs already roll in easily and the pain is only inconsistent floor straps, look at Maya One or classic rails instead.
How a typical boarding goes
Hook. Steer. Secure. Go.
01 · Attach hooks to the wheelchair frame
02 · Guide the chair with the thumb controller
03 · Tension and finish securement inside
04 · Occupant belt — person, not only chair
Uneven parking and unbalanced chairs are normal — not edge cases. INQLINE is built so the operator keeps command instead of hoping momentum does the work.
02 · Thumb controller
One hand for the chair. One for the passenger.
An ergonomic controller keeps boarding deliberate: up, down, left, right — without a “running start” that scares everyone on the kerb.
03 · Less strain · less liability
Drivers’ backs are part of the safety story.
Fleet injuries often start at boarding, not at the highway. Controlled assist reduces shoving and the awkward pulls that create claims — and passengers feel less like cargo.
04 · Securement angles that stick
Board well — then ride steady.
Systems that integrate front tie-downs into the boarding retractors cut a clumsy step and keep webbing at safer angles once the chair is parked — fewer swaying rides after a rushed load.
Boarding in frames
Hook · steer · secure — the sequence carers recognise.
Step 1 · Attach Hooks to the wheelchair frame before the pull.
Step 2 · Steer Controlled boarding instead of a shove.
Step 3 · Secure Finish tie-downs and the occupant belt inside.
FAQ
Quick answers before you call.
No. It assists boarding and securement on a ramp path. If you need a powered platform that raises the
chair from street level, see Lift Systems.
Configurations exist for rear-focused securement boarding and for side- or rear-assist layouts. Maya Mobility
matches the kit to your vehicle entry and floorplan.
Yes. Boarding assist and wheelchair tie-downs are not a substitute for a proper occupant restraint.
Both. Private WAVs with heavy chairs and carers who struggle on the ramp are as valid as taxi and
community fleets. Tell us who operates the vehicle day to day.
Is the ramp the part everyone dreads?
Share vehicle entry (rear/side), ramp type, wheelchair weight and who helps board. A Maya Mobility specialist will say whether INQLINE, a different lift, or classic securement is the honest next step.
