When not in use, the wheelchair accessible model uses a
space approximately 7' wide, 8' long, and 7' 4" high.
Additional space is needed for two primary reasons.
• To ensure adequate space to safely enter and exit from a
flat surface (after transferring from a walker) and space to
enter the wheelchair models near the wheelchair ramp.
• To ensure adequate space for movement
around the swing refer to the following
schematics to determine space options.
