Getting the right Armrest for your wheelchair

The reason why getting the exact right one for your wheelchair is very important.  Each chair is designed differently.  The length, the material used are all different.  Some have a widder mounting point which are full length.  Others are desk length.  They are all different.  Just becuase you can fit one in, doesn’t mean it was “designed” for your chair and still can possibly remain unsafe.  Most manufactures may change the tube size so that the “wrong” one won’t fit.  This is like a safety mechanism built in.  It’s like an electrial plug.  There are different shapes and sizes and it’s very important not to mix it up.

But don’t worry, we’re here to help.  Just call, message, or email us and provide us with your model number and serial number.  We will be able to give you the exact armrest you are looking for.  As you can see, getting the right armrest for your wheelchair is super important.
