Faucets
Single-handle or hands-free faucets make it easier than ever to use the lavatory. A single-handle faucet makes it simple to turn on and adjust the flow of water without tight grasping or twisting of the wrist. Manufacturers such as Delta and Kohler have developed hands-free faucets that use a sensor to detect your hands under the faucet, similar to what you find in public restrooms.
Light Switches
Easy to overlook, light switches can play a major role in creating an accessible bath. First, consider lowering light switches so they would be accessible to an individual in a wheelchair. Second, install switches with a push button or large toggle that doesn’t require a pinching motion to turn on and off.
