Electric Wheelchairs, and rugs/carpets, are a no no. Granted it may take more time if its a tack down vs a throw rug, but any rug. Best Wishes In a message dated 3/9/2017 7:15:09 P.M. Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
One possible answer would be buy some duralock plastic Velcro and stick the edges down. Im sure this wont be popular with the housekeeper. Or like you say find some plastic edging to lay on the start of the rug, might still need the plastic Velcro though called duralock. ron On Thursday, March 9, 2017 6:22 PM, Dave Krehbiel <[email protected]> wrote: We have hardwood floors, and in one room we have an oriental rug. At first I was able to drive my chair into the room without any problems. But lately, my wheelchair seems to be grabbing the Oriental rug, and the rug and up wrapped around my drive wheels. Maybe it is because the rug is getting older. Maybe it is because I'm driving a different wheelchair. But I'm wondering, has anyone else had this problem? I'm considering buying one of those clear plastic mats people buy to put under their desks in office spaces, and to use that as a sort of a pathway for bridge onto the rug. Does anyone have any experience or suggestions or ideas? Thanks so much, and take care, Dave Krehbiel ____________________________________ (https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=emailclient) This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. _www.avast.com_ (https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=emailclient)
