This is a bathroom that we changed from a family bathroom with a bath and separate quadrant shower to a walk in shower room bathroom, offering much more access and mobility friendly.
The clients are of senior age. They realize the no longer are able easily get in the bath and it even more difficult to get out of the bath. The shower in the bathroom had a very high step into the shower and the shower was small. Below is an drawing of the original bathroom showing the bathroom as it was before the work was carried out.
The bathroom is a good size at 265cm wide by 180cm long.
We made some suggestions that would help with mobility grab rails and access. We suggested moving the toilet from the center of the window wall to the left hand side. This would improve the access in two ways. Firstly it would then possible to fit a grab rail next to the toilet. The second access improvement would be creating more space, a larger gap, at the shower to allow for more access.
Below is the drawing that we created, the clients agreed and we then fitted.
