The Smart Guide to Aging in Place — and Keeping Your Home in the Family

by

Even among those who can afford to move into a retirement living facility, the statistics show that relatively few actually want to move out of their existing home. According to the AARP, nearly four in five adults over 50 say they would prefer to remain in their home as they age. That choice is about more than comfort—it’s about protecting one of life’s biggest investments. Staying put allows you to enjoy the familiarity of your own space, maintain financial control, and for many seniors, preserve a property you can eventually pass on to your children.

With the right planning, aging in place can help you keep expenses manageable, safeguard your independence, and maximize the value of your home for generations to come. Here’s what to consider as you explore how to extend your time at home and the legacy you will leave behind.

For some building owners, making your commercial space accessible is mostly about achieving ADA compliance. For others, it’s about creating a welcoming environment for everyone who walks through your door. Either way, when your building is ADA-compliant, you’re also expanding your reach and creating a better experience for all visitors. 

In short, accessible spaces lead to happier customers and loyal repeat business.

Even better? Accessibility upgrades don’t have to come with a sky-high price tag. Whether you’re updating an existing space or building from the ground up, commercial accessibility solutions can be versatile and cost-effective. An affordable wheelchair lift is within reach! 

Let’s explore the most popular accessibility options, including commercial passenger elevators, LULA lifts, vertical platform lifts (VPLs), and ramps. Each has its place depending on your situation, budget, and space constraints. Understanding the pros, cons, and costs of each option will help you make an informed decision that works for both your accessibility needs and your bottom line.

Commercial Stair Lifts and Building Codes

by

Commercial stair lifts are sometimes used to improve accessibility in public or community spaces, especially where a full elevator installation isn’t practical and where ADA compliance is not required. Professionally installed on existing stair treads, these stair chair lifts allow individuals with limited mobility to ride up and down a staircase using a mounted chair.

Stair lifts can offer added convenience in certain settings. Places of worship, veterans’ organizations, fraternal orders, and other community service establishments are common examples. However, they aren’t appropriate for all commercial spaces, especially those subject to strict ADA or building code requirements. 

Let’s look at the benefits and limitations of commercial stair lifts to help you understand when they may be a viable solution and when a different option is needed.
