Specialties: The sole purpose of Safer Wheelchair Locks is to prevent wheelchair falls to those who either can't remember, or are unable to use their manual wheel locks; resulting in falls and injuries due to the wheelchair rolling away while transferring to and from the chair.
Our locks operate automatically, ensuring the wheelchair will not roll away even when manual wheel locks are not used.
Safer Wheelchair Locks instantly lock the wheels when a person stands from the chair, then automatically unlocks the wheels once they are seated. Established in 1999. The concept for today's Safer Automatic Wheelchair Lock was first developed by Dr. Grady Dugas.
As a nursing home Medical Director for over 30 years, Dr. Dugas witnessed firsthand the problem of wheelchair-related falls. He made it his mission to help reduce falls and injuries and further improve the quality of the residents' lives.
Dr. Dugas began experimenting with different wheelchair locking and fall prevention systems and he was awarded his first patent in 1993. Later, Dr. Dugas joined forces with Bill Hoge, President of United Plastic Molders in Jackson, Mississippi. With the help of the skilled craftsmen of UPM, they developed a lighter and more maintenance free wheelchair wheel lock design which utilized advanced DuPont polymers. The new design was patented in 1999 and Safer Automatic Wheelchair Wheel Locks was formed.
