Safety & Accessibility

Safety & Accessibility


Homeowners are remodeling their bathrooms for a variety of reasons, including to increase storage and update plumbing. But one reason more than any other is because homeowners want the space in order not only be able accommodate older relatives who may need assistance getting around but also make sure it's safe from injuries by making everything wheelchair- accessible too!


Style and accessibility go hand in glove when you remodel your bathroom. There are many products, design skillsets or layouts that can create a space for people with disabilities without sacrificing any decorating elements making it unique!

WIDENING DOORWAYS


Making bathroom accessibility improvements is a key step in ensuring that those with disabilities can enjoy their home as much of the time. For this reason, it's important to widen doors 32 inches or more for easy wheelchair access - if there are hallways and corners near by where you'll need space while turning around during use then we recommend 36" door widths so all aspects will be accessible without difficulty when leaving your chair behind after using them!


Although it is important to provide enough space for those who use wheelchairs, too much material can make people with smaller chairs feel cramped. A good amount should suffice and allow room between oneself if one has a larger chair or even just have more personal items in their bathroom than others do!

ACCESSIBLE TOILETS


Toilets that are ADA-compliant and have raised seats allow those with disabilities easy access to the lavatory. grab bars can be found near these fixtures for added safety, while designers often use an appropriately designed toilet or seat which matches most bathroom decors in order make it comfortable enough so as not deter from using this facility like other types do when they're out of place.


Bidets give you that luxurious feeling in the bathroom, but they also make an excellent accessible addition for those with limited arm or hand mobility. With instant hot water and heated dryer available to everybody alike--as well as preset cleaning patterns which can be used without help from others-bidet seats may just become your favorite way clean!

ACCESSIBLE SINKS AND VANITIES


When shopping for a vanity, it's important to consider the accessibility needs of your senior loved one. Some seniors may not be able use traditional vanities because they're too high or placed far away from where you would sitting on their chair; this is especially true if that individual has mobility issues with stairs and walking around store rooms in stores aren't ideal either! Designers recommend pedestal sinks which come equipped standard at higher heights so homeowners can easily access both water faucets AND soap dispensers without having any problems whatsoever - plus these types always include grab bars right next door as well.

ANTI-SLIP FLOORING


Senior-friendly bathrooms are important because they're designed with the needs of older adults in mind. For instance, slippery flooring or water pools that can lead to slips and falls will pose a danger for seniors who might have limited mobility or use wheelchairs; anti slip materials help reduce this risk while still maintaining style points!



The perfect solution exists today thanks largely due its availability across many styles which match any bathroom décor - not just traditional wood look tiles anymore . You'll find carpet options as well if you want something more soothing on your feet during those hot summer months,

SAFETY FEATURES FOR THE BATHTUB AND SHOWER


The bathroom is a place of pleasure and pain. The standardissue showers can cause injuries, so it’s important to implement safety features in your design like slip resistant tubs which provide traction while also ensuring peace-of mind for homeowners who want their home safe as well aesthetically pleasing with designs tailored just right!


Grab bars in the shower are another safety modification that can be made to help guide you while taking steps, and like those used near toilets or sinks they come with stylish designs for your bathroom. Shower bases which do not have corners allow wheelchair homeowners direct access into their showers so they don't need any extra furniture; hand-showers on adjustable slidebars provide convenience throughout all members (including children)


Shower safety bars are an essential item for anyone who needs help getting in and out of the tub. They provide stability while bathing, can be used by people with disabilities or young children trying to avoid getting wet beyond their neckline - not just seniors!


Walk-in tubs offer a comfortable and safe way to take baths, as they have low threshold that you can step over without worry about wetting your feet. The door also features pressure seals so the bath won't leak out when it's closed!
