The ableDry is a specially designed waterproof wheelchair seat cover from ableMove. It’s made to keep your wheelchair seating area completely dry. Whether you’re getting in
and out of a swimming pool, showering at home, or managing incontinence. It offers a practical, discreet, and comfortable solution for keeping cushions and seating dry and protected.

How Does ableDry Work?
The ableDry features a water-absorbing top layer, a highly absorbent middle layer, and a waterproof backing, which together draw moisture away from the surface and prevent it from reaching your cushion or seating area.

Because of this layered construction, ableDry helps keep cushions and armrests dry — ideal after swimming, bathing, or if you have incontinence needs.

The cover isn’t clinical-looking or plain — it feels more like clothing or a normal seat cover, giving users a more comfortable, discreet, and confidence-boosting alternative to traditional waterproof pads.

ableDry also includes flaps that can be folded to cover the legs once the user is seated — offering added dignity and warmth if needed.

Which Size of ableDry Do You Need?
ableDry is available in two versions depending on the type of wheelchair you use:
Low-Back (Manual Wheelchairs) — for chairs with a shorter backrest.
High-Back (Electric or Manual Chairs with High Backrests) — for chairs with a taller or powered backrest.

Sizing Details
High-Back / Electric Chair Version: designed so the back cover reaches a maximum length of about 65 cm (25.5″) — sufficient to cover most powered or high-back manual wheelchairs.
Low-Back / Manual Chair Version: with a back cover length up to about 35 cm (13.7″), suitable for manual wheelchairs with shorter or lower backs.
If you are unsure which version fits your chair — for example, if your manual wheelchair has a higher back — the High-Back / Electric version is often the safer choice to ensure full coverage.

Why Choose ableDry?
ableDry is especially useful if you want:
A reliable, waterproof seat cover for swimming, bathing, or hydrotherapy.
A hygienic solution for managing incontinence without worrying about damp cushions.
A discreet and comfortable cover that looks more like a normal seat/wheelchair accessory rather than a medical product.
A practical, easy-to-clean cover that’s easy to put on, remove, and wash — making it ideal for travel, holidays or everyday use.
A cover with added privacy and warmth — the leg flaps and full-coverage design can help protect dignity and comfort after wet activities.
Because of these features, ableDry is a great companion to other ableMove products such as the sling range (for safe transfers) — especially when you’re going from a pool, shower or beach into your wheelchair.

Final Thoughts
The ableDry is more than just a waterproof pad — it’s a well-designed, absorbent, and comfortable wheelchair seat cover that brings dignity, discretion, and practicality to everyday life. By selecting either the Low Back or High-Back version to match your wheelchair type, you can ensure full coverage and maximum comfort, whether you’re at home, at the pool, or on holiday.
