Foot Harness, Plastic-Tooth Buckle

190,00 excl. VAT

Important: never use a foot harness on its own. A foot harness must always be combined with a hip harness or a chest harness. If the feet are secured while the upper body is not, the user can slide forward in the seat while the feet stay fixed — which loads the knees and hips and can cause injury. Secure the body first, the feet last.

Supported foot position

Unsupported feet drift, push against the footplate or slide off it. For a child with fluctuating muscle tone or sudden spasms, that movement travels up through the legs and pulls the pelvis out of position. The harness holds the foot neutral, so the ankle stays supported and the knee and hip can settle into a functional sitting angle.

Built for daily use

Hard-wearing webbing, reinforced stitching at the load points and neoprene padding that keeps its cushioning after repeated washing. The harness mounts to cam buckle strap fittings on the chair or footplate, so make sure these are in place — they can be retrofitted where they are missing.

  • Durable materials made for repeated daily handling
  • Wipe-clean surface, machine washable for shared use
  • Mounts to cam buckle fittings on the chair or footplate
  • Quick to attach and remove for staff and family alike

Rachet Teeth Buckle

A single long strap with ratchet teeth, fixed on one side, and the lock on the other. Feed the strap into the lock and push — it clicks its way in, one tooth at a time, until the position feels right. No threading through loops, no matching up two halves, and no need to hold anything steady while you fasten.

The clicks are what make it useful in daily practice: the same setting can be found again tomorrow, and the day after, by any helper.

  • To fasten — feed in the strap and push
  • Clicks let you set the exact position, and repeat it every day
  • Holds firm, no slipping loose through the day
  • Simple enough for carers, school staff and family
