The most common legrests on the basic and lightweight folding self propelled wheelchair wheelchairs available at Spinlife are swing-away or elevating leg rests both suitable for the majority of users.

Legrests that are powered elevating are a standard feature on a lot of wheelchairs. They enable the user to elevate their feet to a more comfortable position to improve circulation and reduce swelling. Some models come with an extra calf pad for comfort, but the primary advantage of this type of legrest is that it can be elevated and lowered in a single motion. This is particularly beneficial for those who suffer from poor knee flexion or arthritis as it allows the user to keep an extended (knee straight) position.

The other type of legrest is known as an articulating or articulating legrest. It differs from the standard legrest for wheelchairs in that it can be placed at a variety of angles. This makes it a great choice for people who have difficulty with the angle of the knee when lifting or lowering the footplate. The articulation alters the distance between the knee and the footplate when it's in different positions. This means that the footplate will be wider when it's elevated, compared to when it's dropped.

The articulating legrests are more expensive due to the fact that they are powered. They can be found on wheelchairs that are more specific. This is because of the additional components required to power this type of legrest including motors, actuators and controls. These extra components increase the weight of the wheelchair, making it more difficult to maneuver in tight spaces.

There are two main kinds of wheelchairs that have elevating legrests: swing away and centre mount. Both have pros and cons, but it comes down to the personal preference of the user and their needs. Legrests that are swivelling away are advantageous because they can be positioned on either side of the chair, allowing greater freedom of movement but can be more prone to damage as the actuator is situated on the outside of the legrest, where it is easily smashed by other users or by items within the room.

Centre mount legrests are an alternative that is safer since they are fixed to the center of the wheelchair and are less likely to be affected. They do not have as many options for positioning and could be a barrier to certain users. It is essential to speak with a healthcare professional regarding your options before choosing swing away or centre mounted legrests to make sure that the right legrest is selected to meet your needs.

Standard Wheelchair with Elevated Leg Rest

Standard wheelchairs with foot rests are made to help distribute pressure across the legs and avoid formation of pressure sores. They can also improve circulation and comfort for the lower limbs as well as aid in maintaining stability and balance. The padded legrests are typically installed on the front or back of the wheelchair, and come with a variety of adjustments. Some leg rests have an option to swing away that makes it easier to transfer into and out of a wheelchair. Some have a telescoping footplate, which can be adjusted to fit different lengths of legs.

The type of leg rest you choose will depend on the condition of your wheelchair. Some leg rests have motors, while others are manual. There are different angles that the leg rests are set at, which could alter your sitting position as well as how easy it is to move around.

Your medical condition will also affect your decision. Elevating legrests are at the same height and are suitable for those who cannot bend their legs. If you can bend your legs and have an articulated legrest, it could be better for you. They will automatically adjust the length, meaning you don't have to adjust them manually.

If you're planning on buying a wheelchair that has leg rests we suggest that you test it before deciding. This will help you to pick the right leg rest for you and ensure that it will work perfectly with the wheelchair you've chosen. It is also recommended to consult with your therapist before selecting any wheelchair accessories, as they will be able to provide you with the best options for you.
