This is a short- or long-term rental of a standard manual wheelchair built on a steel frame — the kind that can be self-propelled by the user via the push rings on the rear wheels, or guided by a companion using the push handles at the back. It is a practical, no-frills solution for anyone who needs reliable wheeled mobility during a visit to Sri Lanka, a period of recovery, or simply as a day-to-day aid.
The chair folds flat for storage and transport, collapsing to a width of 12.75 inches when closed, which means it fits into a car boot or a hotel wardrobe without difficulty. The seat is 20 inches wide and 16 inches deep, with a height from the floor that can be set anywhere between 18 and 20 inches to suit the user. Width between the armrests is 20.75 inches, and the overall standing height of the chair is 35 inches. The footplate, heel loops, armrests, and adjustable-height seat are all standard fitments. The frame is finished with a protective coating against rust.
The wheel locks — positioned beside the rear wheels — are intended for stationary use only: they hold the chair in place while the user transfers in or out of the seat, and should always be fully engaged before any transfer. The castors at the front and the large spoked rear wheels allow smooth movement across flat indoor surfaces and paved outdoor ground. The chair is not suitable for stairs or escalators, and on inclines steeper than roughly ten per cent it should be accompanied by a helper.
The rental includes a refundable deposit of LKR 10,000, and the minimum rental period is three days. Collection and return logistics can be confirmed at the time of booking. The foldable frame makes the chair straightforward to move between locations if your plans require it.
