Footplates that can be removed by a simple swing

You can easily move into and out of a wheelchair with the swing-away leg rest. This option can be added to rigid or folding active user chairs. They are typically in motorized wheelchairs for people with disabilities or medical conditions.

Non-slip covers

Rubber mats and flooring can be used to protect the wheel base. They are durable and affordable, and they provide excellent traction. They can be used both indoors and outdoors. They are easy to clean. They are lightweight, making them easy to carry.

Another option is a rubber floor, which can be purchased in rolls or tiles, and provides full flooring coverage. It is water-proof, slip-resistant and easily cleaned with an water hose.

Another kind of non-slip mat is a wheelchair path which is a 1/2-inch-wide mat that doubles as a walkway for wheelchairs. These mats are able to withstand 120-ton weights, and their bold cleats enhance the traction. They are also available in a clear option that lets light pass through. The sheets are 3x3 feet, allowing you to build faster walkways.

There are many types of wheelchair armrests, ranging from full-length up to desk-length. Some are fixed and can't be flipped upwards, but others can. They can be joined by using hardware. They could have one post which gives greater clearance when coming towards the table, or they can have two posts which offer greater stability.

A cushioned seat and adjustable footrests will guarantee the user's comfort. A belt is also recommended to ensure that the wheelchair stays in place while moving. Certain of these features are as standard, while others are available. It is essential to consider your requirements prior to purchasing the right wheelchair. Get advice from a professional if are unsure which one is the best for you. You can rest assured that the wheelchair you choose will be perfect for you.
