The Disability Access Company is in a market leading position in the UK concerning best practice WC's in the design of domestic & non domestic buildings to meet the needs of disabled people. We offer a wide selection of toilet packages that will suit any application with the emphasis on contrasting colours, not only to give a greater choice, but also to assist visually impaired people.
Disability Access Company - M pack The new Disability Access Company British Standard toilet pack has been designed in response to the new British Standard BS8300 & Part M, which was introduced in October 2001, to provide guidance on good practice in the design of domestic and non-domestic buildings to meet the needs of disabled people. The Disability Access Company British Standard pack includes a number of new features. One of the many innovative products of the pack is the colostomy-changing shelf, manufactured from hard wearing, easy to clean acrylic capped ABS, with a sturdy stainless steel frame. There is also a second, general purpose shelf, built to the same specifications.
In accordance with BS8300, the basin tap is situated to the side nearest the toilet. This enables the disabled user to wash their hands more easily whilst still seated on the WC. The handy design also provides a facility to clean a urine bottle, if necessary, as the position of the tap allows for the bottle to be placed lengthways within the basin, which is impossible where there is a central tap hole. The basin design incorporates two tap holes as standard, to enable the hole nearest the toilet to be utilised, depending on the compartment layout, whilst the other hole can be blanked off. Also included is an alarm pull cord, which is situated between the toilet and the washbasin and should reach down to 100mm above floor level. This makes it accessible should someone have a fall and be unable to get up without assistance.
