Accessible Remodeling: Incorporating Universal Design in Your Home

Remodeling a home with accessibility and universal design in mind often requires structural changes, such as widening doorways and removing walls, particularly when wheelchairs and other mobility devices and physical limitations need to be considered. But there are plenty of ways to incorporate accessible elements into a remodel without changing your home’s layout or appeal.
