Physical Therapy and Rehab Clinic Equipment

Controllability. Clinical equipment must start at very low resistance, increment finely, and reproduce a setting exactly from visit to visit so a clinician can measure progress objectively. That requirement rules out much standard commercial equipment, where the lightest selectorized plate is already beyond an early-stage post-surgical patient and increments jump 10 to 15 lb at a time. Pneumatic and air-resistance lines are common in clinical settings precisely because they solve both problems.

Wheelchair transfer space beside every station, step-through frames, seated and supported positions, and unobstructed clinician access on both sides of a station — a therapist frequently needs to work alongside a patient mid-exercise. ADA minimums of 36 in routes and a 60 in turning circle are the floor rather than the target, since patients may be using walkers, crutches or parallel bars in the same space.

By specifying for range of movement patterns per square foot rather than for machine count. Most clinics carve treatment space out of leased medical suites, so multi-function stations, adjustable equipment and open floor for manual work and gait training earn their place over single-purpose machines. Plinths, parallel bars and clear floor are part of the same space budget and are planned together with the equipment, not after it.

Yes — directly with the therapists and clinical directors who will use the room, rather than specifying from a catalog. The patient population determines the equipment: a sports-medicine practice and a post-acute rehabilitation clinic need substantially different resistance ranges and access provisions even though both are described as rehab.

Manufacturer warranties are passed through to you in full, and Fit Supply warrants its own installation work for 30 days. Warranty terms differ by manufacturer and by product line, so the specific coverage for what you are buying is set out in your quote rather than generalised here.

It varies enough by job that a site survey is the only honest answer. What drives it is access rather than piece count: door widths, elevator availability, stairs, tight or turning hallways, and whether equipment can come in assembled or has to be taken apart and rebuilt in the room. Two identical equipment lists in two different buildings can be a day apart. We assess it on the survey and tell you before the schedule is set.

It depends what it is. Custom and modified products cannot be cancelled, returned, rescheduled or refused, and they require full payment up front. Standard stock products can be returned only with our prior written authorization, in new and resalable condition in the original packaging, at your expense and risk, and are subject to a 25% restocking charge. After a proposal is executed, cancellation carries a 25% fee of the proposal total. This is why we would rather spend the extra day on the layout than have you order twice.

Inspect before you accept it and note any visible damage on the delivery receipt — that document is what a freight claim turns on, and a clean signed receipt makes concealed-damage claims considerably harder. Where we arranged the carrier, we file and pursue the claim with them on your behalf as an accommodation rather than handing you the freight company’s number. Where you arranged your own carrier or collected the equipment, the claim is yours to file directly with them.
