Professional zimmer frame adjustment for Devon homes - height set correctly for your posture, reducing strain and making walking safer.

Walk Properly With Your Frame

Wrong frame height causes problems. Too high strains shoulders, too low causes stooping. Correct height makes walking easier and safer.

💡 Pro tip: When standing upright with arms relaxed, the top of the frame should be at wrist level. That's the right height.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does height matter?

Wrong height causes back pain, poor posture, and unsafe walking. The frame should be at wrist height when standing upright - not reaching up or bending down.

Can all frames be adjusted?

Most frames have adjustable legs with push buttons. We check yours and set it correctly. Very old frames may have limited adjustment.

Do you check other things too?

Yes - while adjusting height, we check ferrules, joint tightness, and general condition. Full safety check included.

How often should I check the height?

After any adjustment, weight change, or if posture changes. Also if someone else has used your frame.
