Specifically designed to protect the components of your wheelchair. When you are propelling your chair indoor or outdoor, you can sometimes find yourself in a tight space where things such as furniture, doorways, and vehicles can get in the way and damage the frame of the chair.
Installing impact guards on both your leg rests and also on your front caster mount can prevent frame scuffs from happening. Impact guards are made out of a nylon material that is padded inside; the padding can be made of either a gel or foam.
Another reason for getting frame protectors is to protect the frame when it is being loaded into a vehicle or being placed in storage. When loading the chair onto a car, there may be a case where the wheelchair frame is compromised by the small space that is it stored in, it can lead to frame damage such as scuff marks and even dents.
