These walker ski glides are designed to glide smoothly over carpet, tile, hardwood, asphalt, and gravel. They perform well both indoors and outdoors, even over uneven surfaces or door thresholds.
Do I need tools to install them?
No tools are needed. The ski glides feature a simple slip-on design that attaches securely to your walker legs in seconds for quick and easy installation.
Will the glides scratch my hardwood or tile floors?
Not at all. The included glide covers are made from durable, floor-safe materials that protect against scratches, scuffs, and marks, ideal for hardwood, tile, and laminate flooring.
Are the glide covers washable?
Yes, the covers are washable by hand. They’re easy to remove and clean, helping you maintain a tidy and scuff-free home environment.
