No, unfortunately we do not offer swing seats and height-adjustable seats but we would be pleased to adjust as good as possible your desired seating height due to various leg heights.

Only for the M2 seating (bus).                 

For the M1-approval we offer only single seats in order to achieve a truly flexibility.

Furthermore, a single person cannot carry a double-seat/double bench because of the weight.

The SL3 can be used either as a 2 persons or as a 3 persons bench and offers additionally the value that it can also be used as a bed.

We offer, inter alia, also original fabrics of the manufacturers so that we can produce the identical upholsteries suitably to the driver’s seat . At https://schnierle.de/en/downloads/ you are welcome to download an overview of our upholstery variants.

This is possible at GIS-Liner seats in the area of mobile homes as well as at the IDZ in the military area; otherwise we are specialised in the passenger compartment in connection with our mounting systems.

Yes, our vehicle-specific TÜV-approvals are included in the scope of supply. However, these have to be requested at our homologation department.

This depends on the vehicle registration.

At a passenger car (M1) maximum up to 9 seats including the driver’s seat are possible.        

At a truck (N1) maximum up to 9 seats are possible, insofar as the permissible total weight is not exceeded.           

At a bus/minibus (M2) at least 10 seats are necessary.

For reasons of space as well as reasons of TÜV maximum 4 seats per row of seats are retrofittable.

While driving our seats are compatible and TÜV-tested either in or contrary to the driving direction. At a standstill the seats can also be used transversely to the driving direction.

Yes, when seats are retrofitted at a truck registration at least 1 window is necessary either in the sliding door or opposite the sliding door; at a passenger car registration the vehicle has to be fully glazed.

Yes, for legal reasons, it is necessary to dismantle the partition wall in order to achieve an escape route. Furthermore, eye contact as well as communication with the persons in the cargo area must be possible.

Our systems can only be mounted by a certified specialist workshop. We will be glad to offer a free of charge-installation training for specialist workshops at provision of vehicle.

Shipment

We send the seating systems and the rail systems with Spedition Schenker at charge of freight costs and pallet costs. We send small parts up to 14,00 KG by UPS. You can also collect your order yourself.

Currently the standard delivery time of seating systems is 4 to 6 weeks.
Gladly, we can also deliver the mounting material in advance (please note the higher freight costs due to the two-part shipment).

Miscellaneous
