SEATS
Most often the standard seat included with a wheelchair isn’t providing the proper level of stability, comfort, and support for your customer.
There are many seat options to choose from, so to help you through the decisions, we have broken down the process into easy-to-follow steps. Please see the seat and back order form at the back of this catalog for complete details or call our customer service representatives for assistance and more information.
Our solid seats are available in either a drop-in or full-width style with plywood bases, cutouts, T-nuts and a large assortment of foam and upholstery options.

Easy-to-Order Process for Custom Seats gives you the option to choose:
  • Type of Seat
  • Type of Foam
  • Upholstery Color
  • Modifications: Growth Notches, Anti-Thrust Foam, Washable Covers and more
Custom seat part numbers are created through a 5-step process - see Order Information section.

*See our Glossary section of the catalog for a full descriptions of foam and upholstery choices.

All seats and backs include 10-32 T-nuts; to modify for 1/4 - 20 T-nuts, see Modification section below>

NEW - zippered closures now standard with all seats & backs!

Drop-In Seat   drop-in seat
drop-in seat
Enables the seat to drop between the rails of the chair to accommodate foam thickness and maintain proper seat height.
The actual width of a drop-in seat will be 2 3/4" less than the frame width (for example, a drop-in seat for a 16" wide wheelchair frame will measure 13 1/4" wide). A wide range of hardware can be used to drop or angle the seat.
  • 1/2" plywood base (3/4" for seats over 18" wide)
  • 10-32 T-nuts for mounting hardware
  • Your choice of foam and upholstery color

Full-Width Seat   Full width seat
Full width seat
The actual width of a full-width seat is 1/4" less than the specified frame width (for example, a full-width seat for a 16" wide wheelchair frame will measure 15 3/4" wide). The hardware is limited to our Knob-Release hardware or flat hooks with spacers. The spacers position the bottom of the seat about 5/8" above the seat rails to allow enough room for the securing hardware.
  • Provides broader seating surface, matching the approximate width of the frame
  • 1/2" plywood base (3/4" for seats over 18" wide)
  • 10-32 T-nuts for mounting hardware
  • Your choice of foam and upholstery color
