Wheelchair Under Storage

The Wheelchair Under Storage is a fabric storage unit designed to attach to the underside of a wheelchair, providing an accessible space to carry personal items. It allows wheelchair users to keep belongings within easy reach without needing a separate bag, backpack, or external container.

The storage unit is made from textile, sewn using a sewing machine. Its soft, fabric construction allows it to conform to the underside of the wheelchair frame while remaining lightweight and low-cost to produce.

By using simple textile materials and basic sewing techniques, this design allows wheelchair storage units to be fabricated locally and customized to fit a variety of wheelchair frame shapes.

About the manuals

Field Ready develops manuals to support both the fabrication and safe use of its products. A maker manual provides step-by-step instructions for replicating the design, including materials, tools, and assembly guidance, so that makers in different locations can build the product accurately and consistently. A user manual, where applicable, explains how to properly set up, use, and maintain the product once it is built, helping ensure it performs safely and as intended for the end user. Together, these manuals make the design accessible to both fabricators and the people who ultimately rely on the product.
