About this asset

This manual folding wheelchair Revit family features a tubular metal frame, spoked drive wheels, and blue fabric upholstery for healthcare planning. Rendered with high physical fidelity, the asset models a conventional manual wheelchair configured for mobility assistance. A light grey tubular steel chassis supports a durable blue fabric sling seat and flexible backrest. Detailed mechanical elements include dual rear spoked drive wheels fitted with black push rims and tyres, front-mounted swivelling caster assemblies, textured black armrest pads, and swing-away foot plates. The frame incorporates an under-seat cross-brace mechanism, accurately capturing both deployed open and compact folded configurations for precise spatial clearances.

The download is a 942 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Delivered as a native Revit component, the family drops directly into floor plan views with clean line work and correct floor-level alignment. Component geometry supports native material assignment to swap upholstery colours, chassis finishes, or wheel trim. The adjustable folding geometry allows technicians to switch family types between active occupancy and folded storage conditions without cluttering MEP or architectural coordination models.

Essential for clinical planning, this mobility equipment serves healthcare facilities, hospitals, rehabilitation wards, and accessible restroom layout validation. Architects and space planners frequently position manual wheelchair models in transport hubs, elder care facilities, outpatient clinics, and reception check-in areas. It accurately assists in verifying turning radius clearance, door threshold navigation, and storage alcove capacities across schematic design and technical documentation phases.
