It is important to consider where you live: .

(1) Indoor - Make sure that the electric wheelchair can be installed and operated indoors. Measure doorways in your home (be sure to consider hinged doors, which can reduce doorway openings by 2 inches). The doorway opening should be large enough to accommodate a power wheelchair as well as the armrests and joystick if it sticks out of the bottom of the chair. You should also be able to walk through hallways and make 90° turns into rooms. Bathrooms are often spaced tightly and must be considered - Can a powered wheelchair be moved around the toilet and sink? If your home has more than - floors, consider using a wheelchair lift and be aware of the weight of the chair you are sitting in (many wheelchair Weight capacity is 750 lbs).

(2) Outdoors: Terrain will affect the range of electric wheelchairs. Larger and wider wheels and casters allow for better handling over rough terrain for a smoother ride. Homes with porches and/decks may benefit from installing [porch lifts.
