Is your kitchen handicap accessible?

Is your kitchen handicap accessible? Your accessible kitchen home modifications design should include ample floor space for mobility, ADA handicap accessible appliance access clearances, accessible cabinet doors, drawers and shelves; and a functional “work triangle”. The work triangle refers to the comfortable work space area created between the stove, the refrigerator, and the sink. The sides of the triangle should be greater than four feet and under nine feet, with the outer limits of the triangle at a maximum of 26 feet. http://atlantahomemods.com/ADAHandicapAccessibleKitchenDesigninAtlanta.aspx

Valuable Tip for Grab Bar Installation

Valuable tip for grab bar installation: In a fiberglass shower, use Solid Mount Hardware. It is a very secure installation hardware specially designed to bridge the gap between a fiberglass shower wall and the wood stud. We recommend Secure Mount Hardware by Moen for ceramic tile, glazed tile, and other surface materials. Visit the Grab Bar Page at AtlantaHomeMods.com.

Maureen from Boston will soon have a safer shower! Spent the afternoon installing a grab bar in a shower for 84 year old Maureen, a Bostonian living in Lilburn, Georgia.

Able to navigate her home in spite of mobility issues, Maureen just needed a few more aging in place features in her home to make it safe for her.
