12:25:12 From Steve Gurney - ProAging Community : This is so awesome, creative! My renovation of a 3-generation, handicap-friendly (ADA on first floor only) rental home. I plan to have all lower kitchen cabinets as easily sliding drawers on tracks, not as regular shelves, and upper cabinets as regular type, with shelves. I plan to have some of kitchen counter at lower ADA height, and part of counter at standard height. Plan to have only cabinet doors in front of kitchen sink, so wheelchaired person can go under sink to do own dishes. Higher bottoms of lower cabinets, for the feet of wheelchaired person to go under. John Hinkle Financial Services.
12:25:56 From Louis Tenenbaum : My daughter is 4’-10” she always uses the lower countertops in our kitchen. In particular a lower counter helps anyone to get leverage for rolling pie shells and kneading dough.
