Stay warm and dry in your electric wheelchair, whatever the sky is doing

A drizzly morning shouldn't mean cancelling the trip to the shops or the walk to see a friend. The Able2 Splash Lined PowerChair Cape covers you and your chair in one go, so you can head out in the rain or a cold wind and arrive dry and comfortable.

It's made for electric wheelchairs (also known as powerchairs) with the joystick on either the left or the right. A clear window over the controls means you can still see and use your joystick properly, and the soft lining keeps the chill off on grey winter days.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Clear panel over the joystick
  You can see your controls and drive safely while staying covered — no fumbling under wet fabric or guessing which way you're steering.

• Waterproof outer fabric
  Rain runs off rather than soaking through, so your clothes, your lap and your chair's seat stay dry for the whole journey.

• Brushed cotton lining
  Soft and warm against you, which makes a real difference on cold days — especially if you feel the cold more because you're sitting still while you drive.

• Works with left or right-hand controls
  Whichever side your joystick sits on, the cape is designed to fit around it.

• Elasticated hem
  Hugs the base of the chair so wind and rain can't blow up underneath, and the cape stays in place without flapping.

• Generous 152 cm length
  Long enough to cover you and the chair from top to bottom, keeping your legs and feet protected too.

Who it suits best

• You use an electric wheelchair with a joystick and get out in all weathers
• You feel the cold and want a warm, lined cover rather than a thin rain mac
• Carers who want a quick, simple way to keep someone dry on the move

Worth knowing before you buy

This cape is designed for electric wheelchairs with joystick controls. If you use a manual wheelchair and push yourself, or are pushed by a carer, a cape made for manual chairs will fit and work better. Because it's lined, it's best suited to cool or wet weather — on a warm showery day a lighter unlined cover may be more comfortable.

Questions customers ask us

Can I still use my joystick with the cape on?
Yes. There's a clear panel over the controls so you can see and operate your joystick, whether it's on the left or the right.

Will it keep me warm as well as dry?
Yes — the outer layer is waterproof and the inside has a brushed cotton lining for warmth.
