Description
The Doran DS7100 Handrail Scale weighs only 30 lb itself while rating patients up to 1,000 lb. That combination is rare in handrail scales, and it comes from an aluminum and painted steel frame that tilts back and rolls on built-in wheels. Hospitals and extended care facilities get a full-capacity handrail station that one staff member can relocate in moments.
- 1,000 lb Capacity – Graduations of 0.1 lb hold across the full bariatric range on a portable frame.
- Only 30 lb Scale Weight – The light frame tilts onto two non-marking wheels, so room changes take little effort.
- Last Weight Recall – The previous weight and BMI can be recalled after the patient steps off, which protects the chart from a missed read.
- Height Rod and WiFi Configurations – Builds add an integrated height rod, WiFi data transfer, or both.
Full Bariatric Capacity on a 30 lb Frame
The DS7100 platform measures 22.5 in by 20.5 in with a 2 in profile, keeping the step-up low for patients with limited mobility. Six included AA batteries return about 11,000 weighments, so the scale works away from outlets across a facility. Weight Lock holds the reading through patient movement, and Reweigh captures a second weight without a step-off. BMI calculates from scroll-entered height on the one inch LCD, and optional RS-232 and USB ports connect the result to the record. Units Lock keeps lb or kg fixed on the display, which removes unit errors from multi-staff stations.

Why Choose the Lightweight DS7100
Most 1,000 lb handrail scales are effectively furniture, fixed to one room by their weight. The DS7100 keeps that capacity on a 30 lb rolling frame and adds Last Weight recall, backed by a three year warranty.
- One Scale, Many Rooms – The portable frame serves several rooms, which reduces the number of stations a facility buys.
- Three Year Warranty – Doran covers the DS7100 for three years, longer than the two year handrail norm.
- Chart Rescue Built In – Last Weight recall recovers readings when charting is interrupted mid-visit.
- Cordless Operation – Battery power places the scale wherever the patient is, with no outlet hunt.
