Not only does it prevent accidents, but it also reduces the risk of your company facing potential injury lawsuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Commercial Stair Lifts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Stair lifts can be fitted to any size or type of interior or exterior stairwell, making them an easy choice for commercial properties. This includes staircases that are straight, curved, spiral, helical, long, short, wide and narrow. With a range like this, any commercial property or premises can be renovated with stair lifts. Whether inside or outside, they provide a safe and secure means of moving up and down difficult inclines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With simple joysticks and buttons, they are also easy to understand and operate. Stair lifts are battery-powered, so they do not require an electric power source, saving money and energy. And with long-lasting battery life and weather-resistant designs, stair lifts are relatively low maintenance. They do require recharging to prevent accidental shut-downs, mid-operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Commercial Ramps<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ramps are another helpful addition to consider. They are meant to provide safety and convenience for those in wheelchairs, or for those with mobility problems. Access ramps are a quick and inexpensive way to cater to the elderly and disabled community while still remaining in compliance with the state regulations for disabled access. And they are convenient for any property since they can be installed both indoors and outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commercial <strong>Step Lifts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Step lifts are another option that provide the same purpose as the others, but for small rise wheelchair access. Step lifts are powered by electricity and designed to lift wheelchairs up to 3 meters off the ground. In the case of a power failure, they are manufactured with a safety mechanism that automatically lowers the lift. Primarily used for public access, step lifts are a popular choice for properties since they are not overbearing in an aesthetic sense. They can provide safety and accessibility without jeopardizing the property\u2019s d\u00e9cor and design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Do you have questions about ADA compliancy or handicap-assist commercial remodeling?<\/strong> <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/contact-us.php\" target=\"_blank\">Contact BAF Corporation<\/a> at 317-253-0531 to speak with a seasoned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Indianapolis Indiana commercial general contractor<\/a>, today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:17px\"><strong>You Should Also Read:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/ascertaining-the-need-for-ada-compliance-upgrades-in-a-commercial-remodel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ascertaining the Need for ADA Compliance Upgrades in a Commercial Remodel<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/modern-wheelchair-accessibility-options-for-commercial-properties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Modern Wheelchair Accessibility Options for Commercial Properties<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/primary-elements-of-commercial-ada-bathroom-compliance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Primary Elements of Commercial ADA Bathroom Compliance<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/contact-us.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"107\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BAF-Corporation-Commercial-Construction-Contractors-1024x107.png\" alt=\"Indianapolis Commercial General Contracting and Design Build Services\" class=\"wp-image-19\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BAF-Corporation-Commercial-Construction-Contractors-1024x107.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BAF-Corporation-Commercial-Construction-Contractors-300x31.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BAF-Corporation-Commercial-Construction-Contractors-768x80.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BAF-Corporation-Commercial-Construction-Contractors.png 1209w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Contact Us Today 317-253-0531<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether your business provides a service that caters to the senior community, or simply has a large senior citizen following, it is it wise for you to consider improving the ease and accessibility of your commercial property with elderly and &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/top-considerations-for-commercial-ramps-and-stair-lifts\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":610,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,12,329,103,85],"tags":[131,132,601,6,602,600,599],"class_list":["post-609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-commercial-construction","category-commercial-general-contractors","category-commercial-remodeling","category-office-building-construction","category-tenant-improvements","tag-ada-compliancy","tag-ada-ramps","tag-commercial-building-codes","tag-commercial-general-contractors-indianapolis","tag-commercial-ramps","tag-commercial-stair-lifts","tag-handicap-assist-equipment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=609"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/609\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":611,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/609\/revisions\/611"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bafcorp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
