Product Details

Heavy-Duty Cover With an 8-Inch Top Slit for Hoist Lift Docking

The Diestco Top Slit Powerchair Cover gives your power wheelchair rugged, all-weather protection while working seamlessly with a hoist lift docking device. Many docking systems use hardware that rises from the top of the chair, and a standard cover would have to come off every time you dock or undock. This cover solves that with an 8-inch slit at the top, so your docking device can stay right where it is. You simply slide the cover on and off around it, keeping your chair protected without disturbing your setup.

Made in the USA in Diestco's toughest heavy-duty material, it is built to stand up to sun, rain, wind, and dust, day after day.

Who This Cover Is Best For

This is a specialty cover made for one specific need. It is the right choice for:

  • Anyone whose power wheelchair uses a hoist lift docking device that comes up through the top of the chair
  • Owners who dock and undock often and do not want to remove a cover each time
  • People who want heavy-duty weather protection that works around top-mounted docking hardware
  • Caregivers looking for a durable, fuss-free cover that fits a docking setup

If your chair does not use a top-mounted docking device, one of our other Diestco covers may be a simpler fit. Our back slit cover suits rear docking hardware, while our standard and heavy-duty covers are ideal for chairs without any docking device at all.

How the Top Slit Works

The 8-inch slit sits at the top of the cover, right where a hoist lift docking device typically protrudes. When you are not docked, the slit seals shut with a 2-inch hook-and-loop closure that helps keep moisture out. When it is time to dock, you simply let the hardware pass through the opening. It is a small, thoughtful detail that makes a real difference in everyday use for anyone who relies on a docking system.

Key Features

  • 8-inch top slit: Positioned at the top of the cover so hoist lift docking hardware can remain in place for easy on-and-off use.
  • Sealing hook-and-loop closure: A 2-inch hook-and-loop strip closes the slit to help prevent leakage when the docking device is not in use.
  • Heavy-duty material: Made only in Diestco's rugged heavy-duty fabric for maximum weather protection and long life.
  • Everyday convenience: Keeps your chair covered without forcing you to remove and reinstall your docking setup.
  • Made in the USA: Handcrafted by Diestco, a family-owned manufacturer with more than 30 years of experience.

Choosing the Right Size

Diestco covers are sized to match specific power wheelchair makes and models, so the cover fits properly rather than billowing or bunching. To find your size, use Diestco's power wheelchair cover size chart (PDF) to match your make and model, then select that size when you order. If you are not sure which size you need, we are glad to help, just reach out before you order.

Size Measurements

Size Height Width Length

Important Use & Care Notes

  • This is a rugged protective cover, not a waterproof seal. It stands up well to the elements but is not designed to keep equipment fully dry in heavy or prolonged rain.
  • When transporting your chair on a vehicle, always secure the cover with a bungee cord or rope (not included) over the top. This reduces billowing at highway speeds and protects the life of the cover.
  • Damage caused by using the cover without a securing device during transport is considered misuse and is not covered under warranty.
