About Accessible Basins products

Accessible basins in Australia include stainless steel hand basins and troughs for residential and commercial bathrooms. Their position needs to be planned alongside other bathroom accessibility products to leave room for users to move between fixtures.

Safe and comfortable accessible basins are compulsory to accommodate individuals with limited mobility. Colloquially referred to as a disabled hand basin, these units need to adhere to specific dimension requirements. Most commonly used by individuals in wheelchairs, these fixtures are important in preserving independence amongst their users.  ArchiPro’s trustworthy range of accessible basins can guarantee this purpose.

Types of accessible basins

Accessible basins are designed for a variety of different individuals and situations and exist in a number of different forms. These are some of the most popular options available in Australia.

Rise and fall disabled basins

Rise and fall basins are becoming a popular multi-generational disabled wash basin option. Users can adjust the height of these basins easily using a remote. This makes it an ideal solution in private and nursing homes.

Grab bar assisted disabled basins

These specially developed accessible basins include grab bars to offer additional support. These are the ideal solution for anyone with mobility issues that may need some extra support.

Curved disabled basins

Curved disabled basins offer a great solution for wheelchair users. These basins feature a concave or curved front making it easy for wheelchair users to get close to the basin and taps without having to lean forward.

The advantages of high-quality accessible basins

Installing high-quality accessible wash basins comes with many benefits. The basins provide individuals with limited mobility greater convenience and a safer environment. They are purposefully designed with years of development which means they can be trusted to do the job well. They’ll instil confidence and give users peace of mind when using the basin for years to come. They are well complemented with other accessible bathroom features like accessible toilets that can make a big difference to those that need them.

How to choose an accessible basin that's right for you?

There are various disabled wash basin options in Australia that are available for you to choose from. One of the best ways to make an informed choice is to narrow down your selection for the best accessible basins based on your needs and preferences. This might be the flexibility of an adjustable rise and fall basin or it could be a curved disabled basin for wheelchair users. Styling should also be a factor too and high-quality options take this into account with just as much emphasis on functionality as well as aesthetics. An accessible basin mixer such as the Felton Care Basin Mixer should be checked for reach when selecting tapware for accessible sinks, so users do not need to lean across the bowl.

What's a good height for an accessible basin?

The height of an accessible basin depends on the disability of the person using it. For a person using a wheelchair, the height should be between 70 to 85 centimetres. It’s always best to get a rough estimate of where you’d like the basin to be placed prior to installation.

Who can install an accessible basin?

A skilled bathroom professional in Australia should be called in to install a disabled wash basin. The most preferred will have extensive experience installing these types of products.
