Frame Type

Choose between a folding frame and a rigid frame. Folding frames are recommended for users that need to transport their chair. Rigid frames are lighter, since there is no need for the additional hardware of a folding frame, but they are not as compact and easy to transport.

Seat Width

Seat width is measured at the widest part of the body below the waist plus one inch, ensuring ease of movement in the chair. To measure, sit in a chair or flat surface with your knees bent at a 90 degree angle. Find the widest part of your hip/thigh area and measure straight across. To ensure correct measurement, we suggest placing a book on either side of the widest part of your thigh and measuring from book to book. Note: Seat width will impact the overall width of the chair. You will also want to measure your doorways to ensure your chair will fit in your home.

Seat Depth

To correctly measure seat depth, the user should be seated in a chair or on the edge of a flat surface with a 90 degree bend at their knee. To find the proper seat depth, you should measure from the back of the buttocks to the bend of the knee and subtract at least two inches.

Quick Release Axles

A wheelchair with quick release axles gives you the ability to quickly detach the large rear wheels from the chair for easy transportation.

Armrest Options

Choose from a variety of different armrest types:

Fixed – Fixed armrests are welded to the wheelchair. This type of armrest does not offer any kind of adjustment.
Flip-Back – This type of armrest can be flipped back and out of the way so you can get close to a work surface or easily transfer from the side of your chair.
Height-Adjustable – With this type of armrest you can easily adjust the height of the arm pad so it is comfortable for the user.
Removable – This type of armrest can be completely removed from the chair.
Swing Away – Similar to flip-back armrests, these swing out of the way to get close to a work surface and facilitate easy side transfers.

Legrest Options

Choose from a variety of different legrest types. Swing away removable footrests are generally the most popular legrest.

Fixed – this type of legrest cannot be removed for transfer and are most commonly found on ridged frame chairs.
Swing-Away – This type of legrest is the most common basic legrest. It has footplates on each legrest and can swing out of the way for transfers.
Elevating – Elevating legrests are for users who need the option to elevate their legs. They can also be ideal for users who cannot tolerate a 90 degree bend in the knee or have after surgery swelling or fixed joint issues.

Angle-Adjustable Back

The Angle-Adjustable Back is a great option for a variety of users to compensate for a weakened trunk or reduced hip range. It also offers added comfort adjustment for the standard user. Adjustments can be made with simple household tools. Some wheelchairs can also be set to a certain back angle when they are ordered.

One-Arm Drive

One-Arm Drive systems are designed for users who only have functional use of one arm. There are two main types of One-Arm Drive options: Lever Drive and Double Handrim Drive.
