Mobility Systems

This place is great! I had an issue with a manual wheelchair I bought on Craigslist pulling to the right. Neverton was super friendly and he fixed it in like 10 minutes! Apparently it’s not even really what they do there, but they were nice enough to help out a poor old temporary cripple like me. They seemed to genuinely care.

Don’t be put off by the appearance. Bill and his team are top notch. We purchased our most recent Van through them and we’re very pleased with the service. It was very straight forward, helpful, insightful, honest and easy to work with. Bill doesn’t play the games the big mobility centers do regarding pricing.

friendly, helpful, fairly priced!

I had a great experience there today, They fixed my scooter/​wheelchair last minute same day. They tightened things I didn’t know could be tightened for a very fair price and they answer the phone!!! In the world of wheelchair repair it doesn’t get any better! I was in and out so fast I didn’t get names of people who helped me but you rock!!!

Bill Frykman is honest to the core! I have been going to Bill for over 30 years for service on 6 different vans and I have referred dozens of people to Mobility Systems over the years. Quality, knowledgeable, efficient, down to earth and you get what you pay for… GREAT SERVICE! And a sense of humor too, if you like corny… ha ha ha! Also, they have a nice collection of race car relics, including a cool old orange quarter midget hanging on the wall!
Neverton, Lupe and the entire staff are GREAT!

I was having my handicapped father come visit from the East coast for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, our wheelchair accessible van rental wasn’t starting until a few days after my father’s arrival at the Oakland airport. So we were challenged with how to get him from the airport to my house. I was referred to Sean at Mobility Systems who took care of transporting my father. Without the help of Mobility Systems I don’t know what I would do! Such a terrific company that cares!

I had gone through a nightmare experience with Lifestyle Mobility before and was trying to return in hopes of having a smoother time, NO LUCK. I did a search on Google and came across Mobility Systems. Working with Bill was so refreshing. He made it very easy to do business, was quick and efficient with the installation, even helped to make some tweaks/​adjustments to the device in my other personal vehicle. Bill helped me gather the information I needed for reimbursement from the car manufacturer and printed the necessary documents so I had the complete package of paperwork when we where through. He was such a joy to be around, and hysterical! I will be returning here for my mobility needs in the future and would absolutely recommend anyone I know to come here as well.

We’ve relied on Bill at Mobility Systems for several years to take care of our ramp van. The first time I brought the van in, he fixed a longstanding problem with the battery that several other shops had failed at. He really understands these complicated systems.
When it came time to sell the van, we consigned it with him. I knew I could trust his expertise and experience to set the right price. He took care of everything and sold it quickly.

Excellent service. They were very knowledgeable and took care of my problem immediately. They recognized the issues and fix my ramp were others not only tried to fix my ramp but damaged my ramp instead of fixing it. These guys are great and I will be going back for any needs that might have related to my wheelchair van.
Thanks again Bill and Neverton!

The last time I needed hand controls installed in my car was back in 2007, at a shop that’s not only no longer in business, but also one that’s down in SoCal. So, in need of something a bit closer (and a bit more still-​in-​business), I found myself at Bill’s shop in Berkeley, at the recommendation of some fellow SCI folks.
And there’s not too much to it really: great service from a friendly, knowledgeable (and amusingly quirky) owner; speedy, quality work (my controls were installed in about four hours, which they were able to do without heavily modification of the original car); and the lowest price that I was able to find among the five or six shops I called around the Bay.

I’ve come here twice with my brother’s wheelchair accessible van and Bill has been great. He’s funny, honest, and fair. He explains what is wrong with the system that I broke and how to prevent it in the future. His prices are very reasonable and I was surprised by how fast the turnaround was. Without the van, we have to rely on public transportation, but we didn’t have to use it because Bill was so quick. I have a schedule that is a pain in the butt and he was able to accommodate me. I didn’t know he sold vehicles, too, so when we are ready to move on from our current van, we’ll be going to Bill for sure. I can’t figure out why the other reviews are filtered – I read them and they are all in line with my experience here.

I took my car into the shop after getting a recommendation from a friend. I got in a major accident and needed a lot of work on my car. The owner of the shop, Bill is master of his trade and completely resurrected and transformed my car. The team is fabulous — Lupe makes you feel at home and Bill assures you the job will be well done. Incredible service, great pricing and excellent work.
