Frequently Asked Questions:
1-What is a transit wheelchair?
A transit wheelchair is a particular type of wheelchair with small wheels, making them easier to manoeuvre. They are also known as transport wheelchairs and transit chairs.
2-What is the difference between a wheelchair and a transport wheelchair?
The difference between a regular wheelchair and a transport wheelchair is that transport chairs have 8" -12" rear wheels that cannot be reached while sitting in the chair. Standard wheelchairs, however, are built with larger 18" -24" wheels topped with an easy-to-grip, rotating handrail that allows users to propel themselves forward. Another difference is that transport wheelchairs require a carer to get around from place to place, whilst wheelchair users do not need a carer to move around.
3-Can a transport chair be used as a wheelchair?
Transport chairs move people around who cannot propel themselves using a standard wheelchair. A second person is required for mobility. For those who find a regular wheelchair too big or heavy to move around, transport wheelchairs are a great alternative.
