Builders24 Construction Group installs ramps, lifts, accessible toilets and wayfinding that make commercial buildings usable by everyone across Africa.
Accessibility improvements from Builders24 Construction Group
Builders24 Construction Group provides accessibility improvements for new and existing commercial buildings. We build ramps, handrails, widened doorways, accessible entrances, lifts and platform lifts, accessible toilets, tactile paving, visual and audible signage, and accessible counters and parking bays. A building that people with disabilities, older visitors and parents with prams can use without difficulty is better for everyone, and accessibility is increasingly a legal requirement and a condition of international tenants and funders. Many existing African buildings were not designed with access in mind, and improvements can often be made while the building remains in use. Builders24 Construction Group carries out single improvements, such as one ramp or accessible bathroom, as well as complete access upgrades across a building.
How Builders24 delivers accessibility improvements
We begin with an access audit that records barriers and identifies practical solutions, which gives the owner a clear scope and budget. Works are then planned and carried out in phases so that the building keeps operating. Ramps and landings are constructed to correct gradients and with slip-resistant surfaces, doors are widened or automated, and toilets are altered to provide the required clear space and fittings. Lifts and platform lifts are installed and commissioned, and signage is added at decision points. We coordinate with building management and tenants so that access routes remain safe during construction. Handover includes drawings and a summary of the changes, so building managers can show tenants, visitors and regulators what has been improved.
Why African clients choose Builders24 for accessibility improvements
Builders24 Construction Group has the building, mechanical and electrical capability to deal with every part of an accessibility upgrade, so the owner does not need to coordinate several contractors. We understand how access improvements interact with fire escape routes, structure and finishes, and we design solutions that work together. Clients appreciate that we can complete the work in occupied buildings with minimal disruption. The result is a more inclusive building that meets the needs of its users and the expectations of tenants, funders and regulators across African markets. Building owners also widen their customer and tenant base, because accessible buildings are easier to lease and more pleasant to use.
