YOUR PROJECT MATTERS TO US

We are passionate about removing all barriers that people with a disability encounter and we pride ourselves on working collaboratively with our clients to ensure a successful outcome.

The team at Forward Access are proactive and client focused.

We listen to your needs and ensure great communication throughout the whole process.

Disability Access

Forward Access assists with providing owners, designers and builders an easy and straight forward solution to navigating Accessibility requirements.

We work on all types of buildings and public spaces, from the inception of the design, throughout construction and even after the development is completed.

NDIS SDA Approvals

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) are homes designed with accessible features to ensure those living with high support needs can live more independently and comfortably, in their own homes.

As an accredited and registered SDA assessor, Forward Access can issue an SDA certificate to confirm the design stage or final built product complies with the SDA Design Standard.

LHA Approvals

To enrol dwellings as LHA compliant, the building must be assessed by an Accredited and Registered LHA Assessor, then deemed to comply with the LHA Design Guidelines. The housing is then certified to a Silver, Gold or Platinum Level under the guidelines.

Forward Access Accredited and Registered LHA Assessors can help you achieve any level.

We can assist you from design stage all the way to the final as built stage of the development.

Building Audits

Building audits are generally carried out periodically and the building may already be occupied. Building audits may discover potential Accessibility or Safety issues and provide solutions for the best way forward.

Forward Access can conduct site inspections and desktop audits to determine compliance with an existing building or a proposed renovation.

Performance Solutions

A performance solution is one way to satisfy compliance with the Building Code of Australia.

A performance based solution will be required if you cannot strictly adhere to the Deemed to Satisfy requirements of the National Construction Code.

Forward Access can assist with providing a common-sense solution to your non-compliance issues.
