Frequently Asked Questions about Walking frame check in Ottery St Mary
What do you check?
Frame condition, ferrule wear, height setting, brake function (if applicable), and general safety. Everything that affects safe use.
What are ferrules?
The rubber feet on the frame legs. They wear down and lose grip. Worn ferrules slip - one of the most common problems we see.
Do you supply replacement parts?
We carry common ferrules and can replace them on the spot. Unusual sizes may need ordering.
How often should I check my frame?
Every few months, or whenever something feels wrong. Ferrules should be checked regularly - they wear down gradually.
