wooden folding chair for large person

Don't waste your time. He needs a specialty chair that will assist getting in and out, and they are megabucks.

Not sure the exact requirement. Why does it need to fold? So they can carry it to the beach, etc? If so, my first idea might be too heavy.

First idea would be a folding Adirondack chair. It has enough heft to carry that kind of weight. Google showed this

Second idea would be to beef up a sling chair

A friend of mine asked me if I could make a folding chair for her husband. The problem is he weights about 400 lbs. Does anyone know if there is a chair for a large person or if it can be done? I would appreciate any help anyone could give me.

I ran across this while checking a thread I had started. You didn't bother to look before you asked, did you?

A simple, and quick (2-3 minutes), google tracked down these. I would think either could work. Plenty more plans out there, including knock-down chairs. You find 'em, if you're not happy with these.
