The Evac+Chair 600H is the most versatile chair in the Evac+Chair range. It descends stairs under the control of one trained operator, but it also has foldable front and rear grab handles so that a team of two to four people can lift it over thresholds and obstacles or carry it up short flights of steps. With a payload capacity of 182kg, it suits sites where evacuation routes include changes in level as well as staircases.
