At times like these I think in Malaysia we should devising a checklist to audit a building. The checklist should be based on our guidelines. The guidelines can be found in the SDPP website.

That is the alternative to having disabled people going around the place and do an audit for them.

The minimum I suggest you should do is to make a photocopy of the type of doorhandle that you want. You could get a guideline drawing or at least contact a door accessory supplier to send a brochure.

Actually, we assume that people should know what we meant when we tell them what we want but a note or letter from you with the right specification should be enough.

But there is a bigger issue than the door handle of course. When you get stuck inside, there must be an alarm switch so that people can hear from outside to assist you.

I hope these suggestions are helpful. All the best.

even for public transport, it’s very disabled-friendly.

my 2-cents.
