Clearances & Safety Basics

Aging-in-place design favors clear floor space for turning, reinforced walls for grab bars, and a curbless or low-threshold entry. Atlas builds these into acrylic walk-in & accessible showers and full bathroom remodels.

A real Atlas project: in Hershey, we converted a powder room into a full walk-in accessible shower for a homeowner recovering from a traumatic brain injury. Accessibility isn't a checkbox for us — it's some of the work we're proudest of.

Cost

Accessible showers and conversions typically run $8,000–$15,000 depending on features. Financing is available, and veterans receive 10% off.
