Access Solutions
03
Buildings and locations should be accessible to everyone. We can be involved from the early design stage, helping you get access requirements right before they become a problem, or we can step in when an access issue holds up a certification and you need a consultant who understands both the Disability (Access to Premises – Buildings) Standards and how building surveyors work. Either way, our qualified access consultant and architectural team respond quickly with clear, defensible advice, so your project keeps moving.
We can also take it a step further and provide advice on Universal Design, creating spaces that are usable by as many people as possible, regardless of ability.
