Making Your Shop Wheelchair Accessible

There’s probably not much more frustrating to a person in a wheelchair than not being able to go inside a shop because the building is not equipped to handle their chair. Others with disabilities will also find it frustrating when there are no aids for them, such as stair railings, wide steps, or ramps for their walking frames. Here are some ways that you can make your shop wheelchair and disability accessible for the thousands of people who need these aids.

First, consider putting in a wheelchair / walking frame ramp. This could be for the outside of the shop for customers to access, or it could be inside the shop, especially if you have short sets of steps from one level to another.

Another good way to make your shop more accessible is to use wider doorways for wheelchairs, frames, canes, etc. This way those with disabilities do not need to worry about not being able to get in our out of a doorway without knocking into something.

But most of all you will want a disability lift if you have more than one floor in your shop. All shops with multi levels should have them to make it accessible for those in wheelchairs, those who cannot use stairs, etc.
