Wide doors are beneficial for people with both hidden and visible disabilities for several reasons:
Accessibility: Wide doors provide easier access for individuals using mobility aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, or canes. These aids require extra space for maneuvering, which can be accommodated by wider doorways.
Comfort and Independence: A wider door allows individuals with disabilities to enter and exit spaces more comfortably and independently. They may not require assistance or struggle to navigate through narrow doorways, promoting a sense of autonomy. Safety: Narrow doorways can pose safety hazards, particularly for individuals with mobility impairments or those who use assistive devices. Wide doors reduce the risk of collisions or accidents by providing ample space for movement.
