Up dating for ADA needs
Posted: Fri Feb 05, 2010 10:19 pm
Last month I place a topic asking about widening the doorways in a couple of my rooms to accomidate my motorized chair. I appreciate the quick response on that request but have thought of a few more questions in updating my house to accdomidate my mobility issues.
First I was also wondering after pricing doors if I could purchase a pre-hung door in the size i need. i know the walls of my house if not standard, so how could I adapt the door jam to work.
second I need to install safety grab bars near my tub/shower and need to know how and if I will need to reinforce the wall to secure them in the wall. My shower backs up to the wall with my laundry area. I cxould make an access panel to reinforce the framing if need be.
I appreciate any and all help I get.
Thanks
Melinda
