PME Hand Controls use mechanical linkages to allow for left or right handed control of the brake and accelerator. Our design offers a simple intuitive operation which we believe incorporates the least fatiguing and most natural motion to apply the accelerator. Use is comfortable and responsive for effortless driving.

There are two standard types available;

  • The Push-Pull system operates with a push for the brake and a pull towards the driver for acceleration.

  • The Radial system operates with a push for the brake and a pat (downward push) for acceleration.

The device can be fitted with orthopedic grips for higher level quadriplegia or PME also offers custom Hand Controls if a unique solution is required.

Hand Control modifications can optionally include flip-up pedals and/or an electronic self-cancelling system to improve the users safety. Flip-up pedals avoid the risk of the pedals being accidentally depressed when the vehicle is in use by the disabled driver, and the electronic self-cancelling indicator systems for our Hand Controls reduce the movement and so the risk involved in indicating.

At PME we achieve the best possible result with no, or minimal, modification to the vehicle’s interior to retain the factory look. Quality is assured; We want you to enjoy the freedom of driving, without worrying about the security of your Hand Controls.
