Why 18 Inches Became The Default

Most adult hips fit an 18 inch seat with room for clothing and seasonal layers, which is why fleet orders lean on this width and why loaner chairs at facility entrances are almost always 18s. Buying the default width also pays off later: parts, cushions and replacement upholstery for 18 inch frames are the easiest to source and the cheapest to stock.

Picking Between The 18 Inch Models

With seat width fixed, the differences that matter are overall width against the facility’s narrowest doorway, weight capacity headroom, armrest style for lateral transfers, and footrest choice. Facilities running mixed fleets often match the model family they already stock so wheels, brakes and upholstery interchange.
