Monarch Ezi-Fold Pro Lightweight Folding Electric Wheelchair
The Monarch Ezi-Fold Pro is a lightweight folding electric wheelchair constructed from magnesium alloy, delivering exceptional strength whilst weighing just 26kg without the battery. This folding powerchair features dual 250W brushless motors that provide a top speed of 4mph and a travel range of up to 15 miles on a single charge. The Remote Attendant Control (RAC) system sets this model apart, allowing the chair to be summoned or repositioned remotely—a practical addition for both solo operation and assisted use.
Magnesium Alloy Construction
The frame utilises magnesium alloy, a material prized in aerospace applications for its remarkable strength-to-weight ratio. This construction enables the Ezi-Fold Pro to support more than five times its own weight whilst remaining manageable for lifting into vehicle boots. The 26kg frame weight (excluding battery) places this powerchair among the lightest in its class, making transport and storage considerably more straightforward than heavier steel-framed alternatives.
Remote Attendant Control System
The integrated RAC system represents a significant advancement in powerchair technology. This feature permits the chair to be called from a docked position or manoeuvred remotely, proving particularly useful in confined spaces such as narrow hallways, lifts, or when positioning the chair near a vehicle for transfer. The wireless control operates within a practical range, allowing precise repositioning without manual handling.
Dual Motor Drive System
Two flexible 250W brushless motors power the rear wheels, delivering smooth acceleration and precise directional control. This dual-motor configuration enables zero-radius turning—the chair rotates on the spot without requiring forward or backward movement. Brushless motor technology ensures quieter operation, reduced maintenance requirements, and longer service life compared to brushed motor alternatives. The motors work in conjunction with electric regenerative disc brakes for controlled, reliable stopping.
Compact Folding Mechanism
The folding system reduces the chair to compact dimensions of 650mm wide, 350mm deep, and 775mm high. This folded footprint fits comfortably in most vehicle boots, under desks, or in storage cupboards. The folding action completes in approximately three seconds, requiring minimal physical effort. When folded, all components remain securely attached, eliminating the need to remove or reattach parts during transport.
Suspension and Wheel Configuration
Full suspension absorbs surface irregularities, reducing vibration transmitted to the seat. The 12-inch rear wheels feature treaded solid tyres that provide grip on varied surfaces whilst eliminating puncture concerns entirely. The 7-inch front castors offer responsive steering, and the overall ground clearance of 60mm accommodates typical kerb transitions and threshold lips.
Practical Features
The removable lithium battery pack simplifies charging—the battery can charge whilst fitted or be removed for indoor charging separately from the chair. Flip-up armrests facilitate side transfers, and the padded seat measures 455mm wide by 430mm deep, accommodating a range of body types. An underseat storage compartment keeps personal items secure during travel. The joystick controller mounts on either armrest to suit left or right-handed operation.
