Symmetry is built with plenty of room in front of the seat so you could get in and out easily. We built it so you can transfer onto a flat surface, instead of one that slopes forward. The seat is smooth on the front edge so you can slide across it without any bulky hardware in your way. We eliminated the tubes on the outside of the lower base frame so you can roll up close to self transfer or easily be transferred with a patient lift.


When looking at the mechanics of a solid seat standing system, it was easy to see that careful attention had to be paid to the pivot points of the seating system. Instead of using an under seat hydraulic lift with a seat that hinged from a fixed pivot point, Symmetry is designed with lift arms that pull the system up and forward smoothly. This Over-Center-Seat stands you fully upright and slides with your body, not against it. Our Sliding-Seat dramatically reduces shear and decreases spasms by maintaining the position of your body on the seat and minimizing pressure as you stand.

Special attention was given to the backrest and the positioning devices that are needed by many clients to support them to sit or stand correctly. Our development process made sure that the back stays with you as you move to your standing position and back to seated. The design of Symmetry makes sure that contact is made to supply the support that you need in the areas that you need it. Every back that we supply is standard with our Adjustable-Sliding-Back system. This system is fully adjustable to allow you to personalize each unit to the individual needs of the client. With this product, any individual supports you may need to help you stand properly will stay in place from sitting to standing, supporting you the way that they were meant to and the way you would expect them to.
 

Symmetry is the premier solid seat standing system available today. It is easier to transfer into and stands you up straighter than other solid seat standers. The sliding seat and back virtually eliminate shear and all of the support surfaces (hip guides, lateral pads and chest harnesses) will stay with you from sitting to standing. Transfers are easier because the lift mechanism is out of your way and if you want to try something even easier look at our Swivel Seat option.
Symmetry Features Support Surfaces that Stay With You. Full Upright Standing Posture. Shear Reducing Sliding-Seat Over-Center Seat Technology Adjustable-Sliding-Back. Easier Transfers. Symmetry creates the correct alignment of the body for proper standing and weight bearing. The ability to become upright and achieve mild hyper-extension at the hips creates full weight bearing capability. Correct alignment of the pelvis and hips is unequalled in this premier standing device with its Over-Center Seat Technology. Not only does Symmetry bring you to a fully upright and weight bearing position, it allows you to adjust that position for maximum stretch and a progressive standing program.
When the decision was made to manufacture a solid seat standing system, it was not taken lightly. Prime Engineering�s focus has always been to supply the best in fit, form and function and we are very aware of the existing problems with solid seat standing devices. It was our mission to fix the problems that have been continual with this type of device for many years. Symmetry Is The Fix!
