Currently, it’s a buyer’s market for houses, so getting your dream home is a snap, right? What changes, though, if a buyer’s dream home has to be Electric Wheel Chair accessible? Locating an existing home that is also wheelchair accessible it hard to do. It’s more practical to stick with the home you currently own and, if permissible, customize your home to be wheelchair accessible.

A wheelchair bound person can have difficulty reaching anything over 48” tall, so overhead doors or shelving should not contain anything important. This is something that is often overlooked.
A bathroom is meant to be an oasis of calm in today’s stressed-out world, therefore, your bathroom is not an area where you want to be constantly dealing with your physical condition. If you add nothing else, a 3 x 4
