Outdoor Ramps
Getting in and out of your home can be a difficult task for those who are in wheelchairs, mobility scooters or use other types of walking aids. Installing an outdoor ramp will make this task easier, as it provides a level slope that you can ride up rather than stepping upstairs. This is a relatively affordable way to improve your mobility and eliminate the chances of injuries. Check out Millercare’s fantastic range of ramps for outdoor, indoor and portable use.
Widening Doorways
If you are a wheelchair, mobility scooter or walking frame user, then widening doorways will be essential for you. Widening doorways will allow you to have full access to your house without any issues. This is a DIY project that a close one can carry out for you, or you can hire a professional.
