lengths, styles
and finishes

There’s no reason to worry
about wet surfaces and
hard-to-access tubs and
showers. Today, excellent
options, like a removable
shower seat, make showering
much easier, especially when
combined with a detachable
showerhead (available in your
choice of finishes).

Thoughtful
changes go
a long way
toward making
bathrooms
safer and more
accessible. Add
a threshold ramp
and nonslip
bathmats. Install
a chair-height
toilet or a wallmount sink that
works with a chair
or wheelchair,
and adds to your
sense of style.
Safer Bathing
Simplify bathing with walk-in
(low- or no-threshold) showers
and bathtubs, specially designed
to dramatically improve access,
safety and the beauty of your
space. Lowe’s offers a variety of
durable walk-in shower and tub
choices (available in your choice
of finishes).

Safer Footing
Adding rubber
treads on
stairs can
prevent slips.
Textured tiles
– or small tiles
with numerous
grout lines –
stylishly reduce
the chance of
slipping in wet
or damp areas.
Nonslip rugs
should also be
used throughout
the home.

Rugs, stairs, doorway
thresholds, electrical cords
– these are just a few of the
everyday obstacles to safe and
confident movement throughout
the home. The good news
is Lowe’s has all the surefooted solutions you need
to fit smoothly into your home’s
look and feel.
Railing
Adding railing on stairs and in
hallways is an easy and effective
way to prevent falls and provide
added support. Lowe’s offers a
broad selection of attractive railing
types and styles, some available
prefinished.

Easing the Effort
Handles
and Pulls
The right handles and
pulls can make all the
difference for those
with reduced hand
strength. D-shaped
drawer and cabinet
pulls, for example, are
much easier to use.

Making your home more userfriendly doesn’t have to mean
giving up your sense of style.
Add single-lever or touchactivated faucets, rocker light
switches, and clothes racks
that lower for easy access.
These products are popular,
attractive and thoughtfully
designed for ease of use.

Ceiling fans can do more than
raise your comfort level while
helping lower your cooling and
heating bills. Installing a remote
controlled model also eliminates
the need to stretch for the fan’s
controls.

Appliances
That Assist
Little Things
Mean a Lot
Front-mounted
kitchen range
controls make
burners and
ovens easier
to operate and
safer because
you don’t have
to reach across
the burners to
use the controls.
Cabinets with
pullout shelves
or racks are also
easier to open
and use.

Ladders and
grabbers also
help extend
your reach.
Some kitchen’s appliances and
cabinets force you to stoop,
stretch and bend repeatedly.
Instead, choose stylish doubledoor refrigerators with the
freezer section on the bottom,
dishwashers that open and
load like cabinet drawers, and
microwaves installed below the
counter, not above your head.

Improving Mobility
Flooring:
Obstacle or
Advantage?
In some
instances,
flooring can
actually help
mobility. Wood
and other
smooth-surface
flooring such as
ceramic tile and
vinyl is much
easier to walk on
than deep-pile
and/or thickly
padded carpet.

Having the freedom to move
easily is essential to any
home. At Lowe’s, we offer
solutions that improve mobility,
functionality and style –
including kitchen counters
designed for wheelchair use,
and cabinetry featuring rollout
shelves, lazy Susans, and
pullout tabletops.

Task Lighting
Illuminate specific areas and jobs
with task lighting. For example,
under-cabinet lighting is great for
instructions and preparing meals.

wall sconces can also direct more
light wherever it’s needed.
