Would somebody mind measuring the wheel to wheel width, so I know what size doorways I can get through? This looks like a nice chair.

It's about 27-28". Our doorways are 30" and the chair can be pushed thru without a problem so long as you're careful. We did take the door off our master bathroom so he can get through by himself easier (there's a vanity on the right and the door on the left and visually looks tight but really isn't. Hope this helps you in your decision making. It's a great travel chair and I'm thrilled it's so easy to load into the car.

My doors are 36 in. wide, not a problem comfortable in and out,,,,anything narrower would be a problem

Not sure what the exact width is when open because it's my father's chair and if I remember correctly any door that is around 26" or larger 30" clears perfectly. Hope this helps a little.

I was able to drag the chair through the door into the room. I did have to tip it on it's side but since it comes in two pieces it wasn't a big deal. I have the standard 30" doorway. Hope this helps. My mother loves the chair.

This walker can slide. I believe the width includes the wheels. We have had no problems getting through doorways with it.

I modified my chair to make it like Invacare Transport Chair, 16 inch Seat with Footrest- Black by Invacare $116 from Amnazon.I replaced the large side wheels with small rear wheels like those on the transport chair. And, when pushing someone around, the small rear wheel chair is easier to maneuver than the large wheel chair.My modified chair will go through a door with an opening of only 21 1/2 inches. So if you don't need the large side wheels order the 16" Transport Chair. Since I removed the large side wheels I can not give that measurement. My modified chair is 21 " wide.

I'm out of town at the moment and without a tape measure or I'd measure it for you now, but it looks like it would be a tight fit for a 30 inch door if it fit at all. We have the 22 inch seat. There's about 4-5 extra inches of wheel on either side of the seat.

The measurement I have fully set up is: 28-1/4"W x 39-1/2"L x 28-1/2" Deep inclusive of the wheels.

Between the front metal frame it runs a little over 19", measuring in the middle the width is 20". Have had ours for about a year and would not trade if for another. Handbrakes make it easier for me to control on inclines. Large wheels make it easier to move. My son had to borrowed the chair, managed to use it and he weighs over the limit of 300 lbs.

I purchased the medline deluxe 12 transport chair because the rear wheels were large enough to go over steps but small enough to menouver in the house. The chair is 16 and a half inches wide between the arms, so you'll use this to determine if the person is thin enough to fit in the chair. The chair is 24 inches in width at the wheels, so you will use this to dertermine navigation through doorways. In my house this works for all the doorways except the bathrooms and closets. I took off one of the bathroom doors in a bathroom off the master bedroom and was able to escort my father to the bathroom using the transport chair; the doorway and wheel chair at that point both being 24 inches.

forgot to measure the wheel chair when the hubby was home, so I measured the smallest doorway that it will go through, 27 1/2". This is the bathroom, and the door is off. the other doorways with doors are 32" and there is plenty of room

I can't measure the walker for you because it is at my parents' house. I can tell you that my father cruises through the doors to bedroom and garage with it. They are standard door openings from 40 years ago. There are wide walkers for large people; this is not one of them. Hope this helps.

Thanks, your post will help my decision to buy in a positive way. I also am curious whether or not the chair comes with screws to mount the wheel or if you need to get some and what size if so. Thanks again.

I don't know the seat height but the width of this model turned out to be a problem. Couldn't easily get through doorways.

Left to right legs only (not wheels) approx 21 1/2. If wheels are mounted on outside then width is 25 1/4. By the way, it is very easy to change the set up to have the wheels on the outside (for extra stability) or on the inside (for narrow doorways). The legs inserts at the bottom just revolve. Front to back at the bottom is 16 ( not including where wheels stick a little forward of the legs) and at the top by the handle, from front to back is 10 1/2.

Standard doorway openings are 30". This little guy has a width "wheel" clearance of 24.5".Gets around great, even over 1.5" thresholds. CQ
