Creating inclusive outdoor spaces is at the core of our bench design philosophy. We rigorously adhere to ADA guidelines and universal design principles to ensure our seating solutions accommodate people of all abilities.
Each accessible bench features appropriate clearance space for wheelchair users, with carefully measured seat heights between 17-19 inches from the ground. We incorporate firm, stable seating surfaces that provide both comfort and support for easy transfer from mobility devices. Our designs include extended seating areas at the ends of benches specifically for wheelchair placement, allowing friends and family to sit together comfortably.
The materials we select—from powder-coated aluminum to sustainably sourced hardwood—are chosen not just for durability but for their tactile qualities and temperature resistance. We pay particular attention to installation, ensuring proper stability on various surfaces and maintaining clear pathways around each bench location.
Beyond mere compliance, we focus on creating welcoming spaces where everyone can rest and socialize equally. Our commitment extends to continuous improvement, regularly consulting with accessibility experts and community members to refine our designs for maximum inclusivity in public spaces.
