If you're looking to rent or purchase wheelchair accessible properties, there are several characteristics that you'll be looking for during your search. The first and most important is the access to the entryways of the building. An accessible property will have properly constructed ramps to allow a wheelchair user to easily maneuver themselves to doorways.

The doors themselves should be at least 30" in width to easily allow a standard wheelchair, which is 26" in width, to pass without binding to the doorjamb. The layout of wheelchair accessible properties should also allow ample room for the wheelchair user to move throughout it. Kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms will have spaces for turning the wheelchair, which requires between 48" to 60" for most standard wheelchairs. If the property itself has a number of levels, some sort of system will need to be installed to get the person from one level to the next. Elevators in larger buildings are the best solutions although stair lift systems are more conventional in a family home.

The bathroom and bathing facilities of wheelchair accessible properties will need to be modified to make them usable by a wheelchair user. Support or transfer bars will need to be installed for both access to the toilet as well as the shower area. In most cases these support bars have additional beam support behind the drywall to giving maximum support and eliminating the possibility of it failing. Additionally the tub surround should include a seating area or a specially designed folding chair should be utilized. Some wheelchair accessible properties will actually have something called a roll-in shower, which is essentially a shower facility for wheelchair users where they do not have to transfer themselves into a tub area. The floor is slightly slanted towards the middle so water does not flow into the remainder of the bathroom.
