Accessibility in bathroom remodels

If someone in your family has a disability or elderly, you either renew your bathroom design the remodeled bathroom more comfortable and accessible or inaccessible. Your project can easily integrate the functions of space and make recommendations to the bathroom is accessible to all.

The property sector has different levels of accessibility standards in the design and construction of barrier-free bathroom sketchesaccess to industry-standard housing. The main difference is in the way that is accessible for anyone with special needs. In recent decades, bathroom designers, architects and manufacturers of faucets and other bathroom safety products have begun to respond to the need for better accessibility (and safety) in the bathroom. The result is a set of standards known as universal design.

Bathroom Light Fixtures

Many of these features are nice, and in every house can be added withlittle or no cost, if you renovate a bathroom. Regardless of your situation, you might want to check the list and see if some of these recommendations can incorporate into your new bathroom for the comfort of your family to work.

The recommendations that follow universal design for bathrooms as:

Place electrical outlets in 15 or 18 inches above the ground Leaves a wide door opening of 34 to 36 inches Allow at least 18 inches clear spaceIn addition to all ports of the "pull-side" to get the space between the doors when you open Leave a turning point in the bathroom than 5 meters in diameter (for wheelchairs) Use contrasting colors between the floor and finishes so you can see more easily Choose easy to use hardware: lever door handles, push plates, pull handle, drawers and cabinet doors, lever faucet handles, locks, touch, keyless locks Parking LightSwitch 35-44 inches from the ground up Anti-scald pressure balance valves tubs and showers Hand shower head in all tubs and showers in addition to fixed heads. Mount Baden Prerequisite: at least 5 meters long and 3 meters (4 feet preferred) curbless shower or tub with integrated seat, waterproof floor and floor drain 30 "by 48" clear space on each device (spaces may overlap) Clearance of 3 feetfront and one side of the toilet Toilet centered 18 inches from each side of the wall, closet or bath Block off between studs in walls around toilet, tub and shower for the placement and location of handrails Minimum height counter WC of 32 cm Knee clearance 29 "high under the sink (which can be achieved with fold-back self-storage doors) No pedestal sinks Mountain fall so close to the bar as possible.
