5.Go Wide
To widen doorways, it may be enough to replace standard door hinges with expandable offset ones. They give you a little more space. Or you could remove the door and even the doorframe. Rearrange furniture so you have wide paths and easy access to things like light switches and thermostats.
6.Rise to New Heights in the Bathroom
Getting up and down from the toilet is easier with a raised seat that fits over your regular one. Choose portable or permanent, with arms or without. “Grab bars” in the shower, tub, and near the toilet can smooth moving up and down. And they don’t have to scream “hospital” anymore. Many new designs are more likely to say “spa.” Newer built-in and fold-up shower benches are also more stylish.
