All You Need To Know About Lightweight Wheelchairs

back to top

Lightweight wheelchairs, also known as travel wheelchairs and folding wheelchairs, are the practical and convenient way to get back your independence and do more of the things you love. Getting out of the house is one of the most important things you can do, and a lightweight wheelchair will help you to do just that. 

Their frames weigh much less than traditional wheelchair frames and allow them to be stored and transported virtually anywhere. Despite being lightweight, our portable wheelchairs are robust and can support users weighing upwards of 18 stone. 

Due to their collapsible frames, they’re incredibly transportable so you can take them anywhere with you. They can be used for a simple trip in the car to the shops, or even on holiday to get you around with the help of a carer. 

If you’re looking for product specific information then head over to the product pages where you can find the following:

  • Measurements 
  • Seat Measurements (Height, Depth, Width)
  • Total Weight of the Wheelchair
  • Seat to Foot Rest

It’s important before you make your purchase that you check the measurements of your doors and tight spaces in your home to ensure that the wheelchair will fit through. You also need to check the seat measurements and ensure that the total weight of the chair is manageable for you and your carer.  

We have two delivery options available. You can choose from either Home Set up or Standard delivery. Home Set Up is within around 5 days and Standard delivery is a courier service with the product arriving boxed-up. 

We make it easy to buy lightweight wheelchairs and other mobility aids online. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, use our live chat below and one of our team will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
