Let us know about your needs so we can better help you.

A regular service of your adaptations has many benefits. Not only will you have peace of mind that your adaptations are working as they should, but in many cases, it is a requirement for warranty purposes.

We would normally contact you 11 months from your initial purchase, this allows us to carry out a service/ inspection before the warranty ends on your product.

Any service can be carried out at our premises in Driffield or in special circumstances, at your home/work address. We strive to make the maintenance of your adaptation as convenient and as stress free as possible.

As a Space Drive customer, we can carry out the service at your home address. Our qualified team of experts are authorised agents for a wide range of manufacturers.

Our technicians have extensive training, so you can be confident no matter what adaptation you have, we have the knowledge, skill and experience to look after and keep it in tip top condition.

Having your adaptations regularly serviced by the experts ensures that your adaptations are always at their best. Any potential problems can be spotted early and rectified before you run into any real problems.

Your vehicle is your independence, just as you would regularly service and maintain it, looking after your fitted adaptations properly will ensure that they also remain in good working order for longer and continue to be safe and reliable.

It’s easy to ignore small faults that are more of an occasional, slight annoyance. A random flickering light, controls feeling slightly stiffer or looser than they once were, or perhaps they are a little less comfortable to operate but still function. Taking time out to get a service when you are busy can be inconvenient but it is invaluable in keeping your adaptations in full working order.

Choosing the correct adaptations for your needs is of vital importance and we aim to help you with every step of the process. Our experts are on hand to give support and advice and we are able to offer demonstrations on many of the products that we install.

We offer a wide range of vehicle adaptations. There are many solutions to problems that those with a physical disability or weakness face when striving to keep their driving independence, or those wishing to be a passenger in a vehicle.

It could be that you have difficulty in getting in and out of the car, you cannot drive using standard foot pedals, you are not able to steer a standard wheel effectively, you struggle to operate your lights horn or indicators, or you have problems lifting a wheelchair or scooter into your vehicle. We can even provide a complete driving solution for those with severe mobility issues.

Here at Driffield Mobility we have over 25 years experience in supplying and fitting a whole range of car adaptations. Our qualified and highly skilled technicians undergo continuous training to keep up to date on new and improved adaptations as they come onto the market.

Do you think you need or will benefit from adaptations to your new or existing vehicle? Maybe you are struggling with operating your foot pedals or need help in getting in and out of your car, as a driver or a passenger, or maybe stowage of a wheelchair or scooter is an issue.

Contact us by telephone, email or come along for a chat and we will give you the best advice on how to proceed.

We have a specially adapted demonstration vehicle which is fitted with a host of different adaptations that you can see working in action: from hand controls and steering aids to other less common driving adaptations. We can advise on the cost of each adaptation whether a private or motability customer and liaise with all the major vehicle dealerships in the area to ensure the process is as smooth as possible.

We will keep you fully informed from start to finish and are more than happy to answer any questions you may have at any time.

If you have not previously driven using vehicle adaptations we will always advise that you are assessed by a professional to ensure that you choose the best adaptation for your needs.

We know that finding the best product for your needs is confusing. With so many options and features to think through it can be difficult to know what's best. That's why we're here for you. Plan a visit to our shop and we can walk you through what you need in person.

Thanks for getting in touch with us. One of our team will get back to you soon.

Let us know a little about yourself and your needs and one of our team will get back to you to talk through how we can best support your needs.
