We offer to widen any hallways as well as doorways throughout the house, and we also look to see if there are any other restrictive spaces in the floorplan that could be expanded upon. For example, around Linen Closets, The Kitchen’s Island Bench and Bedroom Wardrobes.
Another change we offer to the Kitchen, is to lower the Bench heights to make them more friendly to wheelchair occupants. We also lower the Bathroom & Ensuite Vanities, for the same reason, as well as reposition the Vanity Cupboards / Drawers for better accessibility.
A further change we make to Bathrooms and Ensuite, is adding Grab Bars to both Showers and Baths, as well as ensuring that the Shower Door is wide enough for a Wheelchair to fit through and we also offer to change the Showerhead to be a handheld variant.
There is always the most obvious answer for making a home more accessible, which is by adding ramps and slopes around any stairs or raised areas in and around the house.
