Why Narrow Walkers Are Often Used Indoors
In order to accomodate a standard wheelchair, a doorway must be about 36 inches wide. However, most regular doorways are significantly narrower than that. Although this can be problematic at times, there is a solution to this issue: Narrow walkers for adults, which have two-button folding features that help them to get through tight spaces.
Since both sides are individually collapsible, it allows the user to simply collapse one side by clicking one button at a time to get the side of the walker in the doorway. The most common narrow adult walker type is the 2-button folding walker.
Another thing to notice about many narrow mobility walkers is that they often don’t have the exact same widths as many standard walkers. Even narrow walkers with wheels often have smaller-than-standard widths, usually anywhere between 25 inches and 29 inches on the outside. The larger widths are typically more common in bariatric models.
