The Q'Straint Ambulok Mechanical Cot Securement System (Q10-018) is the crash-certified, tool-free cot securement solution designed for Non-Emergency Medical Transport in cargo vans and minivans. Built by Q'STRAINT — the globally recognized leader in wheelchair and patient securement — the Ambulok Mechanical System applies the same engineering discipline used in world-class wheelchair securement to the NEMT cot transport market.
This docking kit installs into any existing NEMT vehicle equipped with Q'STRAINT OMNI Floor and is compatible with virtually any cot brand already in your fleet — with no modification to the cot required. In minutes, your vehicle and existing cots are brought into full SAE J3027 compliance. The result is a safer transport environment for patients and operators, less liability exposure for your business, and a system designed to flex with your operational needs.
Meets the ambulance litter integrity, retention, and patient restraint standard for ground ambulance-based equipment across frontal, side, and rear impact scenarios.
Installs into any NEMT vehicle with OMNI Floor. Works with virtually any cot already in your fleet — no cot replacement, no fleet downtime.
The low-profile docking system transitions between cot and wheelchair configurations in minutes with zero tools required — simplifying daily cleaning and storage.
Every step is engineered around movements that EMS and NEMT technicians already use, drastically reducing training time and operator error in the field.
All components are 10 lbs. or less and ergonomically designed for fast, single-handed securing and release — keeping pace with demanding transport schedules.
The Ambulok system is designed to secure virtually any cot via compatible stretcher brackets — including cots already in your fleet. Currently named compatible cots include Stryker Power PRO XT, Stryker Performance PRO XT Manual Cot, Ferno PowerFlex+ ST (coming soon), and Ferno ProFlexx (coming soon), and more.
The Ambulok Mechanical System outperforms every competing cot securement solution on the market in the categories that matter most to NEMT operators.
Unlike competing systems locked to a single proprietary cot, the Ambulok Mechanical System works with virtually any cot in your fleet via compatible stretcher brackets — including Stryker, Ferno, and more. It also works with any wheelchair via compatible wheelchair brackets. No competing system offers this level of dual-use flexibility.
The Ambulok docking platform sits lower than any competing product, reducing trip hazards, improving in-vehicle ergonomics, and maintaining clear floor space for wheelchair configurations when the cot system is not deployed.
Competing systems like the Ferno StatTrac, Stryker Perf. Load, and Ferno Pro F1 require tools or significant effort for removal. The Ambulok installs and removes tool-free in minutes, enabling rapid transitions between transport configurations.
The Ambulok integrates with more vehicle layouts than any competitor. Whether you run cargo vans or minivans, the system adapts — something the Stryker and Ferno proprietary solutions cannot match.
The traditional Latch & Antlers system — still widely used in NEMT — does not meet SAE J3027. The Ambulok Mechanical System is fully certified, protecting your patients, your operators, and your business from liability.
Q'STRAINT has been the global leader in wheelchair and patient securement for nearly 40 years, with safety solutions integrated into nearly every major automotive OEM worldwide. The Ambulok carries that same engineering pedigree.
Purpose-built for Non-Emergency Medical Transport cargo van fleets (Ford Transit, Ram ProMaster, and similar full-size van platforms) equipped with OMNI Floor anchorage.
Also available for rear-entry minivan applications, including the Chrysler Voyager — expanding your compliance options without requiring a full fleet vehicle change.
Ideal for NEMT operators with existing cot fleets who need to achieve SAE J3027 compliance quickly and economically — without replacing cots or purchasing new vehicles.
Operators running both stretcher-bound and wheelchair-using patients can quickly transition the same vehicle between cot and wheelchair securement configurations — maximizing vehicle utilization and revenue per unit.
