Accessible Kitchens

Promoting your independence in the kitchen, dropdown baskets and shelves make much better use of those higher cupboards. With low ovens and rise-and-fall hobs you can bake those cakes, and if you have a rise-and-fall sink there’s no getting out of doing the dishes!

Accessible kitchens are designed with universal design principles to ensure that people of all abilities can use them safely and comfortably.

They incorporate features such as adjustable countertops, roll-under sinks and cooktops, pull-out shelves, and lever handles on taps and cabinets. These elements help create a workspace that accommodates wheelchair users and individuals with limited mobility by providing ample clearance and easy-to-reach controls.

Additionally, accessible kitchens often include clear, unobstructed floor space and thoughtful lighting and storage solutions, ensuring that the environment is both safe and efficient. This type of design not only meets regulatory and accessibility standards but also enhances overall usability, benefiting every household member.
