To be dated: Despite more than 65 million people in the United States alone have some form of disability, there’s minimal emphasis on the mainstream market for products that cater to their needs. Similar issues exist in public, residential, and commercial sectors, with basic facilities for wheelchair support such as ramps being unavailable. The exclusion of these facilities is a constant hurdle for people with disabilities, hampering their daily lives and impacting their contributions to society.

Access Built is a Miami-based accessibility-focused company. They perform inspections on location at homes for the elderly and people with disabilities, detecting any accessibility design shortcomings. They then recommend changes to different contractors across the country that provide ADA-compliant services. It helps them curate and renovate homes, finding potential issues and coming up with solutions within the ADA's guidelines and through their own experience.

“The modern home's architecture, sadly, has little to no consideration for the elderly and people with disabilities. Most installations, be it electronics or furniture, are built for able-bodied people. This is where we come in with our ADA-compliant guidelines and professionals. Once we’ve met the client and understood their needs, we perform a detailed inspection to figure out what changes and improvements we can make to the premises,” a correspondent for Access Built stated.

“Later on, we recommend some ADA-compliant contractors based in your region that help install the specific installations and products we recommend. They take care of the guidelines when setting up anything to ensure best results and maximum effectiveness for the user at all times.”, they further added.

Different parts of the house can be dangerous for people with mobility impairments and other health conditions. For senior citizens and those with mobility issues, falling on the floor can be lethal in many cases and leads to several thousand deaths each year. All of these can be dealt with by making suitable changes to the household. And not every solution has to be costly as there are cost-free techniques that Access Built recommends, such as carefully positioning items and furniture in the home to improve accessibility and movement for people.
