Default Steps for rear doors into garden - building regs

not burdening people with unneccessary designs that they do not want,
while providing exactly what they need, if required.


Absolutely.

MOST disabled people in wheelchairs can manage a lot more 'step' than
the regs assume.

Each disability is different and special and wheelchairs are only one
aspect.
