Curved ABS Transfer Board for Bed-to-Wheelchair Lateral Transfers
This curved orange ABS sliding transfer board bridges the gap between two surfaces at the same height, allowing a seated person to slide across without standing or pivoting. The cut-out handle slot in the centre gives both the user and a carer a firm grip during the transfer. At 80 cm long and 21 cm wide, it spans most standard gaps between a bed and a wheelchair or between a wheelchair and a chair. The 150 kg weight capacity makes it suitable for a wide range of users, and the smooth ABS underside glides on seat surfaces without snagging or marking upholstery.
- 150 kg Weight Capacity: Supports a wide range of users for both assisted and unassisted same-level lateral transfers.
- Curved ABS Profile: The gentle curve follows seated posture naturally, reducing awkward repositioning during the transfer movement.
- Cut-Out Handle Slot: A central handle opening gives both user and carer a firm grip throughout the transfer for added control.
- 80 cm x 21 cm Platform: Spans most standard gaps between bed and wheelchair without requiring multiple repositions mid-transfer.
- Smooth Underside: The ABS base glides on seat and mattress surfaces without snagging upholstery or requiring a separate transfer sheet.
Lateral Transfers Without the Strain
This curved orange ABS sliding board bridges the gap between two surfaces at the same height — bed to wheelchair, wheelchair to chair, or any similar same-level transfer. A seated person slides along the board rather than standing and pivoting, which reduces physical effort and the risk of a fall. The cut-out handle slot in the centre provides a secure grip point for both the user and an assisting carer. Weight capacity is 150 kg.
Construction and Dimensions
The board is 80 cm long and 21 cm wide, providing a stable platform that spans most standard gap distances between a bed and a wheelchair. The orange ABS plastic body is formed with a gentle lateral curve that follows the shape of a seated position, and the smooth underside glides on seat and mattress surfaces without snagging or marking fabric.
Practical Considerations
No assembly or setup is required before use. Best introduced under the guidance of a carer, physiotherapist, or occupational therapist to establish the correct transfer technique. Not designed for vertical lifts or transfers between surfaces at significantly different heights. The board can be wiped clean between uses with a damp cloth.
