Comfortek
Summit Kneeler
(Chair sold separately)
Comfor Tek Seating has designed a Kneeler to fit onto the SUMMIT 7700 Series Sanctuary Pew Chair. The design is well suited to accommodate the worship practices of an aging and growing (physical size) worship community. Shorter worshippers find it easy to engage, as they can do so without the need to reach forward (possibly losing their balance in the process). Worshippers with large body profiles will find that by fully extending the kneeler (up to 13”) they are able to position themselves so that their body weight is directly above their knees, providing unsurpassed comfort. The need to hold onto the chair to maintain one’s balance is also eliminated.
The SUMMIT Kneeler is mounted to the chair frame by use of “c’ channel which also acts as the rail for the roller bearing. A nylon cap, placed over the bearing ensures a smooth quiet operation. To engage the kneeler, the worshipper places his/her foot underneath the pad of the kneeler and pulls the unit outwards from the chair to which it is attached.
Fully extended the kneeler provides up to 13” of clearance.
After use, the worshiper again uses his/her foot to push the kneeler back into its stored position. In the stored position the kneeler is neatly tucked underneath. Exiting and cleaning functions are easily accommodated.
