It folds down for easier storage and comes with detachable moulded armrests and swing-away footrests to help with front or side transfers.

Key benefits

  • Extra-wide seating – a 560mm seat gives more room to sit comfortably during short journeys.
  • Easier transfers – detachable armrests and swing-away footrests simplify front and side transfers.
  • Comfortable cushioning – reinforced double-thickness upholstery provides extra padding and support.
  • Folds for storage – compacts down to save space at home or in a car boot.

Who is this for?

  • People who need an extra-wide transit chair with a 560mm seat and a strong load capacity up to 140 kg (22 stone).
  • Carers and transport staff who need a durable, easy-to-fold chair for short trips and transfers.
  • Anyone looking for a robust, low-maintenance transit wheelchair with wipe-clean upholstery.

Product details

Built for regular use, this Extra Wide Heavy-Duty Transit Wheelchair features a heavy-gauge steel tubing frame with a double crossbar for added strength and a chrome-plated finish for protection. The chair supports a maximum user weight of 140 kg (22 stone) while remaining a practical option for moving and storing, with a unit weight of around 25 kgs.

Comfort is improved with reinforced double-thickness upholstery and moulded armrests that help reduce pressure while seated. The upholstery is made from a wipe-clean fabric to make daily care straightforward, and the seat measures 560mm (22") to give you a little extra room compared with standard transit chairs.

Transfers and access are easier thanks to detachable armrests and swing-away footrests, which allow for both front and side transfers. The legrests adjust within the range of 400mm to 530mm to suit different leg lengths. When not in use the chair folds to a compact size for storage or transport.

Practical finishing touches include stainless steel skirt guards to protect clothing and a construction that balances durability with everyday handling. The overall dimensions and wheel layout keep this model focused on short journeys and attendant-operated use rather than powered mobility.

Key features

  • Heavy-gauge steel frame with double crossbar
  • Reinforced double-thickness upholstery for added comfort
  • Detachable moulded armrests for easier transfers
  • Swing-away, detachable footrests for front access
  • Folds compactly for storage and transport
  • Stainless steel skirt guards and chrome-plated finish
  • Wipe-clean seat fabric for simple hygiene
