Our ADA Solutions

We focus on providing cabinetry that meets ADA guidelines while fitting each client's unique needs. Accessibility, ease of use, and style are central to our approach.

Tailored ADA-Compliant Cabinetry Services



We build cabinets that follow ADA height, reach, and maneuverability rules. Our designs include lower countertops and wider openings to allow wheelchair access.


Each cabinet is adjusted to fit individual mobility needs. We ensure controls, handles, and shelves are within easy reach and require minimal effort to use.


Our team works closely with clients to understand their daily challenges and tailor the cabinetry accordingly. This approach helps maintain functionality without sacrificing appearance.

Custom Design for Homes and Businesses


We create ADA-compliant cabinets for both residential and commercial spaces. This includes kitchens, bathrooms, offices, and public service areas.


Our designs balance accessibility standards with the style of the surrounding environment. We offer options that fit modern, traditional, or custom décor.


We also consider traffic flow and space constraints. Our goal is to make cabinets easy to use and efficient in tight or busy areas without compromising safety or compliance.

Material and Hardware Selections


We use durable materials that withstand frequent use. Options include hardwood, laminate, and water-resistant finishes for various settings.


Hardware choices focus on comfort and functionality. We install lever handles, pull bars, and easy-grip knobs designed for people with limited hand strength.


All hardware is installed at ADA-recommended heights to reduce strain. We prioritize materials and features that support long-term accessibility while looking professional.

Accessible Cabinet Features and Innovations Available

We focus on features that make cabinets easier to reach, open, and use for everyone. Our designs improve convenience and safety through smart adjustments and controls.

Adjustable Shelving and Pull-Down Mechanisms


We install shelves that can be moved up or down to fit different needs. These adjustable shelves help users reach items without straining or stretching.


Pull-down mechanisms bring high cabinets within easy reach. With a simple pull, the shelf lowers smoothly to a comfortable level. This allows users in wheelchairs or with limited mobility to access upper storage safely.


Our designs use strong, easy-to-operate hardware. This keeps shelves stable but flexible in position.

Accessible Handles and Controls




We use handles that require less grip strength, such as D-shaped pulls or large knobs. These are easier to grasp for users with arthritis or limited hand movement.


Lever-style controls can replace traditional knobs, allowing for easier opening and closing. We place handles at heights between 28 to 34 inches for easy reach from a seated or standing position.


Our cabinets avoid hidden or small handles that are hard to find or use. Clear, visible, and tactile handles make daily tasks simpler.

Soft-Close and Safety Features


Soft-close hinges prevent doors from slamming, reducing noise and the risk of finger injuries. This feature is essential for homes with children or users with limited hand control.


We include safety stops on drawers to prevent them from being pulled out completely by accident. Rounded edges reduce the chance of bumps or cuts around cabinet corners.


Our focus on these safety features helps create a more secure and user-friendly environment.

Our Process for ADA-Compliant Cabinetry Projects

Consultation and Assessment



We start by visiting your home or business to evaluate the space. We measure doorways, counters, and aisle widths to confirm everything fits ADA rules. We also discuss your specific needs, like ease of reach and maneuvering space.


During this visit, we note any special requirements. For example, lower counter heights or pull-out shelves. This helps us plan cabinetry that works for you, not just meets codes.

Design and Planning




Our designers create a layout focused on accessibility and comfort. We use adjustable shelves, easy-to-open doors, and clear floor spaces. You’ll get detailed drawings to review, showing exact dimensions and features.


We consider wheelchair access, reach ranges, and turning space. Materials and finishes are chosen for durability and ease of cleaning. We make sure the design fits both your style and functional needs.

Installation by Certified Professionals


Our certified installers arrive on schedule to fit your cabinetry with precision. They follow ADA guidelines closely to ensure proper height, clearance, and support.


We install pull-out drawers, lever handles, and other features based on your plan. After installation, we check everything for safety and smooth operation. We keep the workspace clean to minimize disruptions during the project.
