Your bathroom should be a place of comfort and safety – regardless of age. As a specialised trade company, we offer you customised solutions for age-appropriate bathrooms that are perfectly tailored to your individual needs.
Why an age-appropriate bathroom?
As we get older, our daily care and hygiene requirements change. An age-appropriate bathroom offers you:
- Safety: minimise the risk of falls with non-slip flooring and well-placed grab rails.
- Comfort: Enjoy the convenience of raised toilet seats, wheelchair-accessible washbasins and barrier-free showers.
- Independence: Maintain your independence thanks to well thought-out and ergonomic design.
Things to know about age-appropriate bathroom design
When is a bathroom considered barrier-free?
A bathroom is considered barrier-free if it can be used by people with physical disabilities without assistance. Here are the most important criteria:
1. accessibility
The bathroom must be accessible without steps or thresholds. The door width should be at least 90 cm to allow wheelchair users access.
2. manoeuvring space
A free movement area of at least 150 cm x 150 cm enables a wheelchair to be turned and manoeuvred.
3. adaptable furnishings
Washbasins, toilets and showers should be height-adjustable or installed in such a way that they can be used by seated and standing persons.
4. grab rails and folding support rails
These must be located at strategic points such as next to the toilet and in the shower to provide support and safety.
5. wheelchair-accessible washbasins
Washbasins should be designed so that they can be driven under so that they can be used while seated.
6. taps
Single-lever or touchless taps are easier to use and increase safety.
7. mirrors
Mirrors should also be usable while seated, which can be achieved with tilting models or low mounting heights.
By taking these aspects into account, a bathroom can be designed to be both age-appropriate and barrier-free, which significantly improves the quality of life and enables independent use.
Age-appropriate bathroom: what it involves
An age-appropriate bathroom is specifically tailored to the needs of older people to ensure safety, comfort and independence. Here are the key elements that make up an age-appropriate bathroom:
1. non-slip floor coverings
Non-slip tiles or vinyl flooring prevent falls and provide a secure grip, even when the floor is wet.
2. raised toilet seats
Raised toilet seats make it easier to sit down and stand up, which is particularly important for people with limited mobility.
3. shower seats and grab rails
Shower seats offer a safe way to rest while showering. Strategically placed grab rails help with getting in and out of the shower or bath and provide additional stability.
4. barrier-free showers
Showers without thresholds allow easy and safe access, even with walking aids or wheelchairs.
5. thermostatically controlled fittings
Taps with thermostat control prevent scalding and ensure a constant water temperature.
6. easily accessible shelves and cupboards
Shelves and cupboards should be positioned at a height that is easy to reach even when seated.
7. lighting
Good lighting, ideally with motion detectors, ensures that the bathroom is always well lit when it is entered.
8. emergency call systems
An emergency call system can summon help immediately in the event of a fall or other emergency.
