Evacuation chairs: Understanding the needs of people.
Our range of evacuation chairs allow smaller operatives to evacuate heavier people.
Evacuating a person in their own wheelchair is now seen as the way forward for wheelchair users.
Many organisations realise that when a lift breaks down, a normal evacuation chair, is not ‘fit for purpose’ for someone who can’t be transferred from their own wheelchair. Although not a fire evacuation, a lift break down can be a nightmare for wheelchair users, sitting outside a building in a ‘Skid Chair’, can cause discomfort to the occupant. Operatives and wheelchair users alike realise the comfort, stability and having a true breaking system is very important.
