Frequently Asked Questions:

1- How do I choose a wheelchair size?

Choosing the right wheelchair size is dependent upon many several factors. It depends on:

• How much room or how compact you would like your wheelchair to be
• If you want a foldable or compact wheelchair to bring on holiday
• If you require an electric or manual wheelchair 
• How tall you are
• How much you weigh
• If you are an amputee

2- Is it hard to push a wheelchair?

No, it is really simple and easy to push a manual wheelchair. All of our manual wheelchairs from Gilani Engineering are high quality products and are lightweight and easy to use. Just push forward and the wheelchair will easily go!

3- What's the difference between a wheelchair and a transport chair?

The difference between a wheelchair and a transport chair is very simple. Wheelchairs have large wheels so that the person sitting inside can easily self-propel and push themselves. They have 8”-12” rear wheels that cannot be reached while sitting in the chair. Wheelchairs, however, are built with larger 18”-24” wheels topped with an easy-to-grip, rotating handrail that allows users to propel themselves forward. A transport chair is usually used for someone else to push the attendant however, a wheelchair is self-propelled and is suitable for both the user and carer to use.

4- Can you get a prescription for a wheelchair?

5- How do you cook in a wheelchair?

You can cook in the wheelchair if you have had a home modification done to your home where the sink and stove have been lowered and there is a space to fit the wheelchair there.

6- What is a Bariatric manual wheelchair?

Bariatric manual wheelchairs are designed specifically to accommodate tall and heavy users, and provide a comfortable experience for them. If you are more than 40-50 kilograms overweight with a BMI in excess of 30 then a bariatric wheelchair may be a good solution for your mobility needs.
