Wheelchair Lap Trays

Wheelchair lap trays are among the most functional accessories you can add to your wheelchair. Trays can make eating, writing and reading much easier. Most trays fit standard size chairs, and can be easily secured with Velcro straps.

Lap trays are made with a variety of durable easy-to-clean materials, including Masonite hardboard, and Formica, as well as acrylic and polycarbonate that provide the user a clear view of their lower extremities.

Padded trays can be purchased to protect arms against developing pressure ulcerations or bruises. Wheelchair trays are also available with rims to keep pens, paper, eating utensils, and other items from rolling off the tray.

When shopping for wheelchair trays, look for those that do not interfere with body positioning. An alternative to the standard lift-away full tray is the flip-away half tray, which lifts up and out of the way during transfers or for wheelchair storage.

Pricing starts from around $50 and can run as high as $400, based on the materials and features you select.
