product details

These chairs are often used as 'transfer chairs' possibly within a hospital or airport to move a mobility-impaired person when a better alternative or a user's standard chair is unavailable. A rigid frame wheelchair is usually a non- folding type with a base of support on which the person sits.

Typically, a wheelchair consists of four wheels: two large wheels in the rear, which are used for propelling the wheelchair, and two small wheels in the front, which swivel and are called casters. The large wheels support the majority of the individual's weight and provide the primary means of propulsion.
