Hello:
My daughter has a Bolt on the bottom of her wheelchair to hook into our vans EZ lock system.
Due to this bolt doorways in the house can be a problem. I have cut out a portion of the threshold
in order that she may enter and exit easier, but the empty space is enough for mice to enter as well as cold weather. Has anyone ever had this issue and what did you do about it ?
Thank
Sammy

Sorry I haven't got any knowledge about wheelchair so I am afraid I can't help.
