I am in a wheelchair? Would this work for me?

It depends upon how much mobility you have. But if you have someone hang the extension rod for you, it can definitely be adjusted so that it is closer to the ground.

Thank you for your inquiry. This hangs off your existing hanging bar. The American Disabilities Act states that the suitable bar height for a person in a wheelchair is 54" from the ground. It is unlikely that your existing bar is that height. You can use this to provide you with a lower bar height without using any tools. It will hang over your existing bar and you can choose the height. It's adjustable. If you want to create more hanging by placing this beneath your existing bar to create double hanging, place it at 36" h. It will be suitable for pants hung over the hanger.

I think so. The rod hangs off of the upper closet rod and my garments skim the floor about 3" above it. Longer garments might puddle on the floor but as far as height of the installed bottom rod you should have no trouble accessing garments.

It depends on how high and how securely you mount it. I'd look at alternate ideas because I think reaching up to the upper rack will be too difficult and there may be too much swaying. Best of luck.

A normal wheelchair, yes, but I would seek another solution. This is not well made.

Yes it should be good my mom is 4' 10" and under a 100 pounds it was perfect regular wheelchairs were way too big. This one fits her and is very comfortable !!!

I would say yes with a little strategy and maneuvering. Maybe a small table behind the wheelchair it can be done.

I have never seen one on a wheelchair but if there is an 1 1/4" tube somewhere on the seat or armrests it would work.

Yes - you could actually get by with the 3' ramp and still make the minimum 2:12 rise to length ratio for an occupied wheelchair.

I haven't tried it but I can't imagine that they would work. The connection spots have to be parallel and I would think the wheel on the wheelchair would be out too far.

I would use my hands all the time. Keep your good foot on the footrest. It is safer there. I never use my leg to propel the wheelchair. Doesn't work all that well that way. Wheels easily using your hands on the larger wheel. Good luck. Hope you heal quickly.

Hi, my german shepherd Ayla had become paralyzed from waist down. The wheelchair works so that she used her front legs to move and bottom legs were lifted up by strap in back. She loved it and was able to run, unfortunately sometimes she tipped over and that she didn't like. But it helped her independence for a while. She is now deceased. I still have the wheelchair. spiritwindfarm@gmail.com

I don't know for sure but I imagine it could. It certainly is strong enough to. I'm not driving a car any more. What I use it for is to carry bags of groceries on my walker. I'm not in a wheelchair yet.

Yes if this person still has some mobility, capable of not pushing back, little resistance. It is really just a transport chair not a heavy duty wheelchair.

I believe that this chair requires a min. 25" width clearance. So obviously someone could push the wheelchair thru a 26" wide door or use your feet (if possible) to 'walk' thru, however self propelling by using the back wheels would be difficult - not a lot of extra elbow room/most likely scraped fingers.

Not in any way that I can figure out. Alternative: use 2 inexpensive folding canes. Stow them in a wheelchair backpack. Or for reaching them while seated, get one or two wheelchair wheel pouches. They do not interfere with your wheeling yourself. And you may find that you like them for other reasons. All available at Amazon.com.

This is an excellent product that I'm really happy to have. It might support a heavier person. I'm a little over 200, I'll bet it will work. You might want to call the company or just try it.

Chris D. I am sorry I do not know about a wheelchair. However, in a car or chair at home or work, it is great. I think I would give it a try in a wheelchair. The best to you.

Yes. I just used this model of Drive transport wheelchair for a 3-day weekend with my father. If you look at the photos, each side has a rubber-padded tube extending in the back just inside each rear wheel. You can push down on either one with a foot while you pull back the handles at the top with your hands. This helps lift the chair over a small bump or ridge. Just be careful! This isn't meant for off-roading. ;)

I am not sure about the wheelchair. It probably will. It has enough room to hold my husband's electric cart. The wheelchair would probably fit. Take the measurements of the wheelchair and see if the carrier is wide enough for the wheelchair. You will probably need to tie the wheelchair to the carrier with tie downs for safety reasons, which is what we do with the electric cart, and the tie downs are easily removed when you want to unload the chair.
