Since 1st October 1999 all providers of goods and services have had to make “reasonable adjustments” for disabled people, such as providing extra help or making changes to the way you deliver services or accommodate your employees.

From 1st October 2004 you should have made other “reasonable adjustments” to the physical features of your premises to overcome barriers to access.

Premier can help you to remove or alter physical features of your building that makes access to services impossible or unreasonably difficult for a person with disabilities, with the minimum of financial outlay.  These alterations will assist you to comply with the Act.  Automated entry systems also make it easier for customers with small children in buggies and prams and the elderly to access your services.

Our range of products to help you to comply with the Act include:

• Automatic doors both swinging and sliding

• Push pads to activate low energy doors

• Barriers and bollards

Even if you are occupying new premises that meet current building regulations some alterations may have to be made to comply with the Act.

By partnering with associated companies e.g. fabricators, builders, shop fitters and electricians, Premier offers a full service at an affordable cost.
