VERY LIGHTWEIGHT: Thanks to their aluminium construction, our ultra-light wheelchairs allow for greater mobility. EASY TO TRANSPORT: being a folding wheelchair, you can easily transport or store it wherever you want. DETAILS THAT MAKE THE DIFFERENCE: the design has been thought through down to the smallest detail. The aim? To offer a modern and original aesthetic that makes the Palacio model little or nothing to do with traditional wheelchairs. IDEAL FOR: the elderly, people with reduced mobility, post-surgery, hospitals, shopping centres and companies. LOCKING: If you need to completely immobilise the wheelchair, pull the brake lever, located next to the wheel, forwards and the wheels will be blocked. To unlock the wheels, pull the lever backwards. REMOVABLE WHEELS: The rear wheels can be removed by means of a pin and a nut, which facilitates their storage or transport. DOORS AND BAGGAGE: This wheelchair has a total width of 69 cm, so it can fit through standard 72.5 cm wide doors. Also, as this wheelchair measures only 33 cm when folded, it can be transported in the boot of a Ford Focus type vehicle. Please check the measurements of your doors and vehicle to make sure it will fit.
