ADJUSTABLE
WALKER
WEIGHTS
Introducing the latest addition to Safetmate's acclaimed fall prevention devices.
Combining therapist-informed design, clinical insight, and practical functionality, Adjustable Walker Weights enhance walker stability, providing users with improved balance, confidence, and independence while increasing mobilty and decreasing the risk of falls during daily activities.
Repositionable, durable, and easy to attach, they seamlessly integrate with a variety of mobility aids (walker, cane, or rollator, etc.) and rehab programs.
A NEW
therapeutic Solution
For Mobilty Aids
Increased mobility and fall prevention start with stability, balance, and confidence. Adjustable Walker Weights are therapist-designed to help users move safely, improve gait quality, and maintain independence—whether at home, in rehab, or on the go. Designed by physical and occupational therapists, this device is the first and only patented weight for mobility aids, including walkers, rollators, and canes.
Today's walkers and canes are often designed with ultra-lightweight materials to reduce costs, but they lack sufficient stability for some users. The Adjustable Walker Weights help solve this issue by providing a lower-cost alternative to expensive medical equipment.
NO TOOLS REQUIRED! These easy-to-use weighted attachments easily attach securely to all walkers and canes based on the person's needs. This medical equipment has seen success in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and home care settings.
Our patented equipment can be placed on multiple sites of a walker, including the front legs, back legs, side posts, and front bar. The attachments also fit on multiple other devices, such as canes, rollators, and pediatric walkers. Weighted walking attachments begin at 3lbs and can be reduced in 1lb increments. This allows for an individualized setting tailored to the person's needs.
