The Aurora is Remploys new lightweight folding wheelchair. The unique half seat folding system allows the chair to fold down to a smaller size than a traditional chair. Subtle modularity allows you to configure the chair to suit a range of users and environments.
The Aurora Wheelchair can be configured in 6 different ways to alter stability, wheelbase and/or seat to ground height.
Two types or armrest are available to fit the Aurora, desk and full length. The desk length allows greater freedom in environments such as an office, the full length offers greater levels of support and is better suited for occupants that use the armrest for transferring.
The Aurora backrest can be folded to reduce the space needed for storage or transportation.
The brakes that are fitted can be moved to suit either 24" or 315mm wheels and the castors have multiple wheel positions to allow for variations in seat to ground heights and wheel sizes.
The footrests are height adjustable to suit every occupant size as position is very important as it has a major effect on distribution of seat pressure.
The seating system on the Aurora allows the chair to fold down into a smaller size than a standard folding chair because the supporting seat tubes are split in two.
Brake pressure is adjusted by moving the clamp and the slider tube on the frame to the desired position while the castors have multiple wheel positions to allow for variations in seat to ground heights and wheel sizes.
Aurora wheelchairs are supplied with quick release axles.
