ANN ARBOR (Mich.) – Addressing the trend of more and more homeowners choosing to age in place, QualityCabinets is demonstrating design flexibility and architectural expertise with universal access options and accessories. The following is just a sample of the universal design options that QualityCabinets offers:

• The front on the sink base cabinet and cook top cabinet can be removed to accommodate a wheelchair.
• Base cabinets have pull-out trays, drawers and a Lazy Susan to make retrieving contents easier.
• The base cabinets are shorter for easy reach from a wheelchair.
• Wall cabinets are lowered closer to the base cabinets for easier reach.
• Open shelving has been incorporated for easy access and visibility.

“QualityCabinets offers several options specific to universal design,” explained Mark Johnson, FAIA, CKD, AIBD, director of architect relations and education for QualityCabinets, “But designing for homeowners with special needs is also possible with our standard offerings. It just takes architectural insight and smart design to accommodate any homeowner; which is what the QualityCabinets brand is all about – kitchens for everyday life.”
