Detailed information
The Alerta Self-Propelled Wheelchair has been through formal crash testing and is intended for use in transport when secured correctly. The frame is constructed from high-quality, lightweight materials that provide strength without adding unnecessary bulk, and it includes a fitted lap belt and heel loops to help keep the user positioned safely when seated. For travel, always follow vehicle tie-down procedures and local regulations to secure the chair and user before moving.
Mobility is supported by the large rear wheels, which make self-propulsion easier and improve manoeuvrability over uneven surfaces. The chair sits on puncture-proof tyres so you will spend less time dealing with punctures and more time being active, while the rear brakes provide reliable parking stability during stops and transfers. The design focuses on a smooth, comfortable ride without complex controls.
Comfort and everyday practicality are addressed with adjustable features that help with transfers and personal preference. It comes with padded armrests that can be removed when needed and swing-away footrests that detach to allow easier side transfers. When not in use the wheelchair folds compactly for storage or transport, and the overall layout keeps routine handling straightforward for carers.
