What Type of Walker Do I Need?
Different walker types suit different users and environments. Here is a simple guide to help you choose:
4 Wheel Walkers (Rollators)
Ideal for day-to-day outdoor mobility, longer walks, and users who want a stable walker with wheels, brakes and often a seat.
3 Wheel Walkers (Tri Walkers)
A great choice for tight spaces and smoother steering indoors. Often lighter and more compact than a standard 4 wheel rollator.
Indoor Walkers
Designed specifically for moving around the home, typically compact with a tray and bag for carrying meals, drinks and personal items.
Knee Walkers
Used for recovery after ankle/foot injuries when weight-bearing is restricted. A knee walker can be more comfortable than crutches for many users.
Forearm Walkers
Designed for people who need increased upper-body support, reduced wrist strain, and improved posture while walking.
Compact Folding Walkers
Perfect for travel, appointments and car transport. These fold smaller and are easier to store.
3 in 1 Walker Wheelchair Hybrids
A versatile mobility solution for users who can still walk short distances but may need assistance for longer outings.
What to Look For in a Walker
When choosing a walker, focus on:
-
Stability and support level (how much balance assistance is needed)
-
Weight and portability (important for car transport)
-
Wheel size (outdoor use generally benefits from larger wheels)
-
Brakes (reliable hand brakes and park brake)
-
Seat and comfort (useful for longer distances)
-
Adjustability (correct handle height improves posture and safety)
If you’re unsure which walker suits your needs, our team can help you choose the most suitable model based on height, usage environment and support requirements.

Are walkers suitable for indoor use?
