Wheeled Steel Commode with Locking Castors for Bedside Toileting
The FS696 is a steel-frame commode chair with four locking castors, designed for clinical and home care environments where wheeled mobility between bed and bathroom (or between rooms) is required, combined with secure positional locking during commode use. The four-castor configuration allows the FS696 to be rolled smoothly to the bedside, bathroom or any required location, with individual castor locks applied to prevent chair movement once the user has transferred. This wheeled-with-lock design is particularly practical in institutional environments where a single commode may be shared between users and needs to be repositioned throughout the day by care staff.
Stable, Secure Commode for High-Use Clinical Environments
The FS696’s steel frame provides robust structural support for the 100kg weight capacity across the daily use demands of hospital wards, frail care centres and nursing homes. The 7kg net weight is practical for care staff handling the chair during daily repositioning. Dimensions of 50?21?76cm provide a compact footprint within ward bays and bathroom spaces. The commode seat configuration ? including splash-proof commode pan ? is designed for ease of emptying and cleaning, reducing care staff time and improving hygiene in multi-user environments.
