Walking frame guide

About Walking Frames

Walking Frames are mobility aids designed to provide a wider, more stable support base than a walking stick or crutch. They are often used around the home, during recovery, after surgery or where extra balance support is needed. Popular options include Zimmer frames, folding walking frames, wheeled walking frames and walking frames with glides or ferrules. Choosing the right walking frame depends on your stability needs, home layout, strength, height and whether you need fixed or wheeled support.

How to Choose the Right Walking Frame

Choosing the right Walking Frame depends on your stability needs, strength, height, home environment and whether you need fixed, folding or wheeled support.

1

Step 1 — Think About How Much Stability You Need

Walking frames are best suited to users who need more support than a walking stick or crutch can provide.

2

Step 2 — Choose Fixed or Wheeled Support

A fixed walking frame provides strong stability, while a wheeled walking frame may be easier to move forward without lifting.

3

Step 3 — Check the Frame Height

The walking frame should be set to the correct height so your arms are comfortable and your posture remains supported.

4

Step 4 — Consider Storage and Home Layout

Think about doorways, hallways, room space and whether a folding walking frame would be easier to store or move around.
