Why choose Avenir Renovations?
The objectives of an accessible bathroom

- Independence: turning and transfer areas, clear sink for knee passage, accessible storage, door easy to maneuver.
- Comfort & hygiene: stable shower seat, raised toilet, uniform lighting without glare, effective ventilation.
- Durable aesthetics: sober and resistant materials, useful visual contrasts, careful finishes.
A five-step working method
At Avenir Rénovations Namur, each accessible bathroom is created according to a clear five-step method. From design to completion, we guarantee safety, comfort, and accessibility for a space suited to all uses.
Key technical points for a successful PMR adaptation
We adhere to all recommended practices and guidelines to provide a quality space.
- Door: clear passage ≈ 90 cm (sliding pocket door or outward-opening hinged door). Easy-to-grasp handle.
- Turning space recommended ≈ 150 cm (or equivalent clearances) to turn in a wheelchair.
- Lateral transfer space at the WC ≈ 80 cm when possible (or frontal).
- Washbasin: height approx. 80–85 cm, space-saving siphon and area under the basin free (≈ 70 cm).
- Extra-flat shower tray or tiled shower with a linear drain (controlled slope).
- Threshold 0 (or < 2 cm if technical constraint), pivoting/folding shower screen.
- Foldable shower seat and horizontal/vertical grab bars (suitable anchoring for the support).
- SPEC waterproofing (waterproofing system under tiles) on shower floors/walls.
- Non-slip tiles (R10/R11) or LVT suitable for wet areas, dense joints and well-rounded edges.
- Contrasts between the floor, walls, and fixtures (better visibility).
- Waterproof skirting boards and neat coves for easier maintenance.
- Raised toilet (or adjustable bowl, slow-close lid), foldable grab bar on the transfer side.
- Accessible sink (without base cabinet), long lever mixer tap, tiltable or lowered mirror.
- Storage within reach (≈ 90–120 cm), graspable handles.
- RGIE compliance: wet volumes respected, suitable IP rated devices.
- Uniform lighting (ceiling + indirect LED), wide switches at accessible height.
- Quiet but effective ventilation (hygro-regulated/timed extraction) to avoid condensation and mold.
- Validation by property manager/AG if modifying drainage/technical duct, respect for timing, protection of common areas (elevator/corridors), clean waste disposal.

PMR Fit-out Scenarios

Common issues in Namur: our responses
Shower room too small
We optimize the layout (sliding door, niche, wall-mounted unit), create a 120×90 shower and free up space under the sink. Circulation becomes smooth.
Risk of falling in the shower
We combine non-slip flooring, grab bars positioned at the right height, and a stable seat, plus a thermostatic mixer.
Condensation & mold
We size the ventilation (flow rates, timing), ensure SPEC waterproofing, treat the joints, and promote easy maintenance (protected corners, waterproof skirting boards).
Condominium: nuisances & access
Protection of common areas, schedules, protected elevator, discreet debris removal. Management/AG file if needed (removals, duct).
FAQ - Accessible Bathroom
Can an accessible bathroom remain “design”?
Yes. Grab bars come in stainless steel, matte black, or white finishes; seats are discreet and foldable; mixers are compact. We play with useful contrasts (safety) without a “hospital” effect.
Walk-in shower: mandatory?
Highly recommended. A zero threshold secures access. If the structure does not allow it, we aim for a minimal step (≤ 2 cm) with a light ramp.
Can we keep a bathtub?
Rarely compatible with optimal autonomy. We replace it with a step-free shower. Seats and grab bars ensure comfort and safety.
How long for the work?
Often 1 to 2 weeks for a complete adaptation of 4–6 m² (excluding supply times). We phase the work to keep toilet/washbasin usable as much as possible.
