Quick answer: Facilities working upcountry buy manual crank beds for one reason: they can be maintained locally. The 3-crank bed at KSh 70,000 and the 2-crank at KSh 30,000 are the usual choices, delivered from Nairobi with a confirmed date and a named receiving contact.
Serviceability beats specification
An electric bed that fails in a facility six hours from Nairobi is a bed out of service for weeks. A crank bed is repairable with basic tools. That is why mission hospitals often decline the more expensive option deliberately.
Upcountry logistics
We dispatch from Nairobi, confirm the transporter and the delivery date before anything leaves, and require a person on the ground to receive and sign. Timing by region is on the locations page.
Buying spares up front
If your facility is hours from Nairobi, order a small stock of castors, crank handles and rail catches with the beds. It costs little on the original invoice and it is the difference between a bed out of service for a day and one out of service for a month.
Donor-funded orders
Where equipment is funded by a grant or a partner organisation, we can invoice against the terms the funder requires. Raise it on the first call so the quote and the paperwork match what the finance office expects.
