Do not add the footrest clearance if the wheelchair will be foot-propelled. Next, add a minimum of two inches for footrest clearance. Then subtract the thickness of the cushion when it is compressed. Front Seat to Floor 7 Measure the leg from the back of the knee to the sole of the foot. A typical daily wheelchair uses three degrees of camber. More camber improves stability and agility, but also limits ability to pass through narrow spaces. Wheel Camber 6 Angle of the wheel relative to the vertical. Consider bulk of clothing, particularly a heavy winter coat, if relevant. Seat Width 5 Determined by the widest point of the body from knee to hip, plus an inch to ensure room to move. Depends in part on ability of the knee to bend towards the perpendicular. A tighter angle allows the wheelchair to turn around in less space. Hanger Angle 4 Determines how far the toes extend away from the body, measured from the horizontal. Relative to the front seat-to-floor dimension, this determines the rearward slope ("dump" or "squeeze") of the wheelchair seat. Rear Seat to Floor 3 Measurement from the ground to the rear seat edge. Depends on how much upper back support is needed, and also affects freedom for the upper body to rotate. Back Height 2 Measured from the seat base to the top of the wheelchair back. Some prefer more leg overhang to make room for their hand when lifting their leg. Please refer to current price lists located at Depth 1 Measure from the most posterior point of the body to the inside of the knee, minus at least two inches. Accessories and seating products shown in the photographs are not necessarily included in the base price of wheelchair.
