Accessible Disabled Bathrooms and Equipment
Accessible Bathrooms Overview
With over 4 million Australians living with a disability and an ageing population, the need for accessible, dignified, hygienic disability toilets in public and private infrastructure is key to creating inclusive communities for everyone.
The Australian Standard AS 1428.1-2009 (Design for Access and Mobility) reflects the importance of providing accessible washroom spaces for those with disabilities and reduced mobility. It specifies the requirements for accessibility in new buildings and for renovations, as required by the Building Code of Australia and the Premises Standards.
Para Mobility’s intent is to actively influence and advocate for inclusive communities in Australia, and a great step forward is the ability to deliver changing places and lift and change compliant, accessible disability bathrooms. Our products and services are designed to ensure safety, independence, comfort and dignity for all users.
Para Mobility understand the intricate requirements involved in designing, planning and constructing accessible bathrooms. Our range includes:
We offer tailored solutions to meet the specific needs of each individual. All products are designed and manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring long-lasting performance and safety.
By offering a comprehensive range of accessible bathroom services, Para Mobility helps individuals with disabilities achieve greater independence and improve their quality of life.

Para Mobility offers ongoing service and maintenance for all our products. As we manufacture in Australia spare parts are readily available.
