If you have a double side by side stroller, then you know that it can be difficult to fold and store. Folding the double stroller isn’t as simple as folding one single. There are a few steps to take to fold this type of stroller correctly. This blog post will show you how to fold a double side by side stroller with easy steps!
Steps on How to fold a side by side double stroller
Step 1. Put each side of the stroller up against a wall. Make sure you are facing away from the centre of the stroller. Bring down one seat, which will be on your left side first.
Step 2. Once both seats have been brought down to around 30 degrees, lock them into place by pushing back slightly and pulling forward again while pressing locking clasps inwards until it locks onto its holder securely.
Step 3. Repeat this step for all four sets of clasps on each half (two per set) so that they are at the same angle as when you started with both sides locked upright into their holders. This ensures that everything is secure and moves during transport or storage after folding.
Step 4. Lift the back of the stroller slightly until you hear or feel a click/snap and keep lifting it so that the front folds down on top of itself. Make sure to lift both sides equally at around thirty degrees each before locking them in place as they will not fold flat with one side low.
Step 5. Repeat this for the second set on each side so that they are at the same angle as when you started with both sides locked upright into their holders. This ensures that everything is secure and moves during transport or storage after folding.
