Functional
Benefits

Lateral support when you need it
– Easily removed: For transfers and other situations where laterals temporarily require removal from the wheelchair, such as sports involving arm movement.
– Easily installed: For extra support in situations such as driving or other transport, when a lateral support is not normally used on the wheelchair.

Easy release mechanism
Simple lever mechanism can be released by either user or carer. Quick-Release Lateral Supports are available in left-handed and right-handed configurations, so the lever can be positioned in the best spot for releasing.

Mounts to either the wheelchair back or cane
-Back mounted brackets: Suitable for installing the lateral directly to Spex back supports and an added width adjustment capability.
-Cane mounted brackets: Option to mount the lateral off the wheelchair canes gives greater flexibility with installation and allows a greater variety of mounting positions. Although the cane mount can be angled slightly, it is dependent on the back support and wheelchair size.

Options available
– Axial Fixed Angle: Suitable for all back support models and includes extended bars to fit to a variety of back support foam thicknesses.
– Axial Swing-Away: Also includes angle adjustment as well as swing away function. Suitable for fitting to Spex Classic, Comfi and SuperShape Back Supports.
