The need for fair access to buildings
Unfortunately, a lot of buildings weren’t built with disabled access in mind, especially older buildings. This includes all sorts of properties, in the public sector, private sector and housing market. It is actually a legal requirement to make sure your building is accessible to everyone, as you must be compliant with both the Disability Discrimination Act and Part M of building regulations.
Access ramps are easy solutions to these issues, providing a simple solution to get into buildings which are otherwise inaccessible. Ramps can be folded up and moved without difficulty and are also heard-wearing. Dolphin Mobility East Midlands can help you maintain compliance.
There are plenty of different models to choose from, such as threshold ramps, modular ramps and even portable ramps. Everybody's needs are different, so we have a range of equipment and the expertise to offer whatever you might require in terms of ramps, as well as advice on other items such as pool hoists.
