What is a Folding Power Wheelchair?

Folding Power Wheelchairs are power chairs that fold quickly and easily for transport and storage. Folding power chairs are a type of travel power chairs, with a foldable design that does not require disassembly to store and transport or reassembly in order to be used again. Just as the name implies, they simply fold down for storage or transport and unfold when you are ready to ride just as easily. Larger powerchairs usually require an additional vehicle mounted lift in order to be transported, but a folding power chair can fit comfortably in your vehicle’s backseat or trunk. Traveling with a folding power chair is as easy as it gets thanks to their lightweight and compact design.

Folding power wheelchairs operate in the same fashion as full size and other types of power wheelchairs. A joystick, mounted on either the left or right side, is used to operate the power chair. You can easily change directions, move forward and backward, and rotate a folding power wheelchair all with one hand. Some travel power wheelchairs, like the Zinger Chair, feature specialized controls unique to them, but are still just as easy to operate. Folding power wheelchairs retain the tight turning radius that you would expect from other types of power wheelchairs while having a smaller design. Folding power wheelchairs are easy to operate and easy to transport.
