Transformation Tuesday- Roll in Shower
Happy Tuesday!
Today I want to show you how we transformed a small, cramped bathroom into a spacious roll in shower.
Click on the slideshow below to see this weeks Transformation ...
The purpose of a roll in shower is essentially that there are NO barriers. It is an open layout design.
Notice in the images above that there is a drain in the shower. Where the drain is, there is a slight slope, which allows the water to flow directly into the drain and keep the rest of the bathroom floor dry.
Other equipment shown are the grab bars and ADA toilet. There is a standard grab bar by the toilet as well as a flip grab bar. This gives our client the help she needs to transition to and from the toilet. Lastly, an ADA height toilet makes all of the difference. These toilets are higher than standard toilets, which helps our client significantly.
Remember, all of these modifications are made to improve our clients quality of life. An ADA home gives our clients INDEPENDENCE to do as much as they can at home, and to STAY at home.

Transformation Tuesday
Spring is officially here, which means we can finally spend time outside!
Is your front entrance accessible? Is it ready for the spring?
The BFA, LLC. team just finished this front deck and ramp in Dearborn Heights, MI.
Now our client will be able to soak up the sun, on the porch, while in her wheelchair. Remember, accessible modifications are all about Quality of Life! I think it is safe to say that our client will be living a better quality of life with her new deck and ramp.

Why use HARMAR Pinnacle Stair Lifts?
The BFA,LLC. is a certified dealer for HARMAR lifts. The most popular are the Pinnacle stair lifts.
Why use HARMAR Premium Stair lifts?
Commercial grade
- No maintenance required
- Hassle-free unit
- We do not have to repair these lifts due to their premium quality part and electronics.
- Made in the USA
- This means that parts and customer service are accessible and fast.
- An investment that will last a lifetime.
... But, why not use the cheaper brands on the market?
- Parts are made in other countries, which makes it more difficult to get parts and assistance.
- Bad quality
- The materials and electronics are low quality. This causes a lot of malfunctions and problems with the lift.
- Repairs are needed after 1 year of installation.
- Overall, this is more of a nightmare than an investment.
Lastly, HARMAR has three different Pinnacle Stair lift units, for three different budgets. All are premium quality and professional installed by a certified technician.

When it comes to accessible home modifications, especially assistive equipment, they have to be reliable. The main reason someone needs these services, is for peace of mind. The way you can have the peace of mind is when the products and the job, are premium quality and proper installation.
BFA LLC. has been working with assistive equipment, like stair lifts, since 2002. We have worked with the cheaper brands and they really are not worth it.
As always, we want to know what you think. Feel free to comment, email us or call the BFA LLC. office to learn more about accessibility solutions.

Throw back Thursday !
Happy Thursday Everyone!
Do you know what that means? Let's have a little throw back.
Here are pictures from the 2014 National Multiple Sclerosis Annual Bike Ride in Frankenmuth. Yes, I said Frankenmuth! It turned out to be a wonderful way to spend the weekend with the family and raise awareness for MS.
Luis has been cycling since he was a teenager! The MS bike rides are a great way to do the things he loves the most, spend time with family and ride bike.
The BFA LLC. family has been involved in the disability community from the very start. After having an overwhelming amount of clients with Multiple Sclerosis, Luis and Gwendolyne knew they had to be involved with MS organizations and community to learn how they could make a difference in a cause that effects too many people they knew.
Have you participated in any bike rides, walks or other events to raise awareness/ funds for an organization close to your heart?
