Wheelchair leg rests are a simple but essential item for many wheelchair users, since they provide extra support to the legs and feet while seated in the chair. Leg rests are simple to attach or remove, and they can be moved from one chair to another to ensure that they are always available. The standard choice of legrests for the basic and lightweight wheelchairs available at Spinlife are swing away or elevating leg rests, both of which are suitable for the majority of users. The swingaway legrests are a fantastic choice for many as they can be raised to a height that is comfortable and reduced for transfers into and out of the wheelchair. The elevating leg rests are perfect for anyone who needs their legs be elevated and are fitted with the calf pads.

Heavy User Wheelchair Elevated Leg Rest

The Titus Heavy Duty Wheelchair With Legrests that Elevate is designed for those with bariatric issues who require leg rests. It is built with a sturdy frame that can handle larger frames. This wheelchair is ideal for those who have larger needs. It features an adjustable seat that is up to 30 inches wide with the weight limit is 700lbs, a durable slide-tube silver vein steel frame and a swing-away feet plate that can be detached.

Powered elevating legrests are a common feature found on many wheelchairs, and enable the user to elevate their feet to a more comfortable position to improve circulation and reduce swelling. This kind of legrest can be raised and lowered with one motion. Certain models come with the option of a calf-strap cushion for added comfort. This can be especially beneficial for those who suffer from poor knee flexion or arthritic conditions as it allows the user to remain in an extended (knee straight) position.

The other type of legrest is referred to as an articulating legrest and differs from the standard wheelchair legrest in that it is able to be positioned at a number of angles. This makes it an ideal choice for those who may have difficulty with the knee flexure angle when lifting or lowering the footplate. The articulation works by changing the distance between the knee and the footplate when it is in different positions, which means that the footplate is longer when it is elevated than when it is lowered.

Since they are typically powered, articulating legrests do come with an additional cost, and as such, you'll often be attached to a higher-end wheelchair. This is largely due to the extra components needed to power this kind of legrest such as motors, actuators and controls. These additional components increases the weight of the chair, making it more difficult to manoeuvre particularly in tight spaces.

There are two types of wheelchairs with elevating legrests: swing away and centre mount. Both have pros and cons, but it is a matter of individual preference of the user and their requirements. Swing away legrests can be placed on either side of the chair to provide greater mobility. However they are more susceptible to damage because the actuator is located just outside the legrest. This is the place where it can be easily knocked over by other people and other objects in the room.

The centre mount legrests are a safer option as they are fixed in the middle of the wheelchair. They are also less likely to be struck. They don't have as many options for positioning and could be a problem for certain users. It is essential to speak to a healthcare professional about your options before choosing swing away or centrally mounted legrests so that you can be sure that the best legrest is chosen for your requirements.

Standard Wheelchair with Leg Rests Elevated

Standard wheelchairs with foot rests are crafted to distribute the pressure across the legs and prevent the formation of pressure sores. They can also help with better circulation and comfort in the lower limbs and also help maintain balance and stability. The padding leg rests are generally installed to the rear or front of the wheelchair, and come with a variety of adjustable features. Some leg rests come with an option to swing away that makes it easier to move into and out of the wheelchair. Some have an adjustable footplate that can be adjusted to fit different leg lengths.

There are many different types of leg rests that are available for wheelchairs. Choosing the best one for you will depend on your medical condition. Some leg rests have motors, while others are manual. There are various angles that the leg rests can be placed at, which will affect your sitting posture and how it is easy to move around.

The choice between an elevating leg rest or an articulating leg rest will also depend on your medical condition. Elevating legrests are at the same height, and are ideal for those who are unable to bend their legs. If you are able to bend your legs and have an articulated legrest, it could be better for you. They automatically adjust the length, meaning you won't need to adjust them manually.

We recommend you try the wheelchair before making your decision. This will help you to pick the right leg rest that is suitable for you and ensure that it is compatible well with the wheelchair that you have chosen. You should also consult your therapist about the best wheelchair accessories for you.
