Tips for planning a wheelchair-accessible kitchen

Accessibility is not just a concern for the elderly or people with disabilities.

It is important to consider accessible kitchen solutions even at a young age as it can cost a lot of money to have to make changes later on.

On average a kitchen is used for ten to fifteen years, so you should bear accessibility in mind from the beginning. This helps to avoid expensive kitchen adjustments as you get older.

However, above all, the ergonomics of the space and individual worktop solutions should be taken into account as important aspects during planning.

Each kitchen must be adapted to individual requirements. This is especially important in a wheelchair-accessible kitchen so that those with physical disabilities or elderly people with specific needs can work independently in their kitchen.
