101 Mobility has been operating in Oklahoma for over 12 years and recently received a new owner. Veteran Jeff Lynch purchased the mobility company in 2025 and serves as President and CEO. Lynch purchased the company largely because he felt it needed local and veteran ownership due to their focus on the veteran.
While they serve other communities, veterans are a majority of their business because of their great need for what they offer. Actively serving in the military puts one at risk for injury which is why there is a greater need.
Although Lynch’s background was in operations, he felt called to purchase a franchise business that would make a difference in people’s lives. A business like 101 Mobility was a natural place
to land given that he is a veteran and much of their service was devoted to them. He did not know of their existence until he went in search of a business to buy.
Lynch’s passion for owning the company and serving veterans came from his own and his three brothers’ service in the military. He joined the Army at the age of seventeen, became a medic, served twenty-four years and retired as a Major in Special Operations. His business partner and best friend served for 34 years in the Army.
Lynch would like people to know that 101 Mobility is service oriented. They don’t sell products, they provide solutions based on individual needs. They provide residential and commercial service, and are ADA compliant. The company must also hold an elevator license to operate and sell some of their equipment. They are able to answer the calls for immediate needs when life changing injuries happen. The cost of the services they provide can range from $200 to $200,000.
101 Mobility has a corporate agreement with the VA that they will travel anywhere in the state to serve veterans. They currently have eighteen employees spread around the state with offices in Tulsa and OKC.
The VA does offer benefits that cover mobility equipment
and vehicle adaptations for eligible veterans. This can
include wheelchairs, scooters, prosthetics and various vehicle modifications.
101 Mobility works closely with the VA staying up to date on the benefits offered, including grants, and other programs available to help with mobility issues. Some of the grant programs include:
• HISA: Home Improvements and Structural Alterations Grant.
• SAH: Specialty Adapted Housing
• SHA: Special Home Adaption
• PSAS: Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service
Additionally, 101 Mobility partners with more than 120 VA Medical Centers and associated clinics nationwide to get veterans the mobility solutions they need to live comfortably and independently.
Eligibility for each program varies, however, you may qualify if:
1. You served 24 continuous months
2. You were discharged due to a disability caused or worsened your service.
3. You are or were a member of the National Guard or Reserves A full list of qualifications can be found on the VA website. Common mobility and accessibility solutions covered by VA benefits include stairlifts, vertical platform lifts, ramps, automatic door openers, bathroom safety modifications and mobility scooters.
101 Mobility has helped make a difference in the lives of soldiers who return from deployments with life changing injuries and find their homes difficult to get around in. By working with non-profits that build accessible homes for service members like this, they help them gain independence and freedom to move around in their own home that they otherwise would not have had.
To encourage entrepreneurship through their VetFran program, they offer ongoing support to help veterans become franchise owners and have been honored as a top franchise opportunity for veterans.
101 Mobility wants veterans to know that they are not alone
in seeking solutions and support for mobility. Because they value and honor all who have served, they want to help however they can. Installing and providing life-improving solutions to gain back independence and increase mobility is why they are here.
Lynch asks the veterans reading this to please let their civilian friends know who they are and what they offer as the majority of their calls come from the adult children of civilians.
101 Mobility offers free in-home consultations. Their website is rich with information from products they offer to VA benefits that cover costs, financing options and more. For more information call 918-238-7979 or visit www.101mobility.com.
