The Pro Skid evacuation chairs, available from Evacuation Chairs Australia , are meant for use in public buildings because, when necessary, they are ready to be used without any compromise, and not only in the case of evacuation.
The Pro Skid safety equipment is designed to maximise the manoeuvrability in cramped spaces and on stairs.
The equipment allows easy transport of personnel to and from stairs and towards the outside of the building.
On the Pro Skid, the back rest and the foot rest extend to become support handles with an ergonomic technique of lifting, thus improving the vision of the stairs and feet for the operator when obstacles on the stairs necessitate the lifting of the chair.
- The chair has a caterpillar belt system that allows movement down the stairs with the help of one operator only
- The frame’s tubes have a minimum diameter of 25mm up to a maximum of 35mm in order to improve stability, strength and durability
- The chair’s backrest is made out of two horizontal supports
- The main wheels have a diameter of 200mm in order to improve stability, comfort and movement
- The front wheels have a brake system, which blocks both horizontal and vertical rotation to stop movement even on steep slopes
- The chair has a headrest with head-fixing belt system in order to improve safety
- Both headrest and seat are detachable, padded and made out of vinyl material coating 600D, antibacterial and completely filled in order to improve comfort, hygiene and durability
- The chair has posterior integrated carrying handles that attach at the support frame and to the hub between the chassis and the support frame, anterior telescopic handles to make possible also the use of the chair to ascend a stair (2 person operation) say from a Basement.
- Integrated instruction provided on the head rest
