4-Point Securement Systems
Q'Straint introduced the world's first fully integrated 4-point wheelchair passenger securement system, the industry standard for more than 25 years. Each component is designed, engineered and tested to work as one cohesive system. In the event of a collision or sudden stop, the system isolates the forward forces of the occupant from those of their chair by directing the chair's forces to the vehicle floor.
A complete 4-point system includes:
- 4 wheelchair restraints to secure wheelchair to the vehicle floor
- Occupant Securements; lap and shoulder belt that integrate to the rear wheelchair restraints
- Floor anchorages; installed in the vehicle floor
- Installation and operator instructions
- Warranty registration card
Retractor Systems
The QRT series of retractors are the easiest and fastest-securing 4-Point systems available today. These systems allow drivers to secure a wheelchair in less than 15 seconds, while reducing the risk of driver injury and drastically reducing vehicle wait times for transportation operators.

Flooring & Anchorages
Fixed Locations ("Pockets")
Used with 4-Point Systems, a vehicle with fixed securement has designated wheelchair securement locations equipped with "Pockets" to secure each corner of the wheelchair (red X's). This setup eliminates the guess work and reduces potential for operator error since securement points are fixed.
Oval L-Pocket
Easy to install, simple to use floor mounted anchorage for L-fittings. |
Slide & Click
The latest innovation in fixed securement “pockets”. It offers 360 degree rotation and easy, one-hand operation. |
| Covered L-Pocket
Flush mounted floor anchorage for L-fittings, with attached cover. |
Flat Hook Pocket The original "pocket" floor anchorage for compartmentalized securement locations. |
A-Track Plate
An economical fixed floor anchorage solution for cost-conscious budgets. |
Flexible Locations ("Track")
Used with 4-Point Systems, a vehicle with flexible securement arrangement is equipped with lengths of track throughout the vehicle, allowing operators to add or remove wheelchair positions and seats to adapt the vehicle to changing passenger needs. This setup provides greater flexibility to accommodate wheelchair and non-wheelchair passengers.
L-Track
L-Track is the most widely used floor anchorage in the transportation industry due to its flexibility in accommodating various wheelchair positions.
Seat Anchor Systems
QSF
The QSF Seat Locking System interfaces with L-track compatible floor anchorages or floor systems and facilitates easy installation and removal of seats on demand.
