Survey
Understanding use, barriers and physical limitations.
Existing buildings
Accessibility adaptations
Technical solutions to reduce barriers and adapt existing environments with more autonomy, safety and architectural coherence.
Adapting is not about applying a generic solution: is to make people, use, space and technical requirements compatible.
Direct answer
What are accessibility adjustments?
These are planned interventions to eliminate or reduce barriers in an existing building, allowing more people to arrive, enter, circulate and use environments with autonomy and safety.
Adjustments must be based on a technical reading of the property. Depending on the complexity, they may require a survey, report, adaptation plan, design, detailing and guidance during implementation.
When to make adjustments
- After a report or inspection identifies non-conformities.
- Before renovation, layout change or new occupancy.
- When adapting stores, hotels, clinics, restaurants or corporate areas.
- To improve the experience of customers, employees and visitors.
- In response to regularization or inspection requirements.
From diagnosis to solution
Priorities
Organization of interventions and dependencies.
Design
Definition and detailing of necessary solutions.
Guidance
Technical support according to the contracted scope.
What interventions may be necessary?
The scope may involve access, accessible routes, circulation, ramps, gaps, toilets, doors, parking spaces, counters, furniture and signage. The need and feasibility of each solution depend on the actual conditions of the building.
Acessibilize defines the contracted technical work, but does not assume execution of work or supply of materials when these activities are not foreseen in the proposal.
What to evaluate before starting interventions
Inform the city, the use of the property, the main difficulties and whether the environment needs to continue functioning during the interventions. Existing plans, photos and diagnoses help define the necessary surveys and projects.
Adaptation needs to consider the entire route. Changing a door, for example, may require compatibility with circulation and the approach area. In old properties, construction limitations must be studied, without promising in advance the viability of a specific solution.
The proposal identifies the contracted technical activities and the monitoring limits. Purchase of materials, hiring of executors, execution and inspection of work are only part of the service when expressly provided for.
To find out about existing barriers, consult the technical report. To establish a sequence of interventions, see the adaptation plan. For detailed dimensions, solutions and specifications, get to know the accessibility project.
Frequently asked questions
Is it possible to adapt an old property?
In many cases, yes. Solutions depend on configuration, use, construction limitations and applicable requirements.
Do I need to start with the report?
When the situation of the property is not yet known, the diagnosis is an important basis for avoiding isolated or incompatible interventions.
Can adaptation be done in stages?
Yes, as long as the phases are planned and preserve the technical coherence of the set.
Does your property have barriers?
Start with the right solution for real space.
Tell the type of building, the city and the purpose of adaptation.
