What Are Accessibility Solutions?
Accessibility solutions encompass a wide range of products and services that make buildings and facilities more accessible to people with disabilities, as well as those who require alternative ways to enter or move throughout the building.
This includes modifications to entrances, doorways, restrooms, and other areas to ensure they are usable by individuals with mobility impairments, visual impairments, hearing impairments, and other disabilities.
Pop-A-Lock is committed to ensuring your building complies to accessibility laws, in accordance with the National Building Code, The Accessible Canada Act (ACA) of 2019, Accessibility Standards Canada, and Ontario’s AODA.

Why Is Accessibility Important?
Canada’s accessibility framework is built on the Canadian Human Rights Act, which prohibits disability-based discrimination. The Accessible Canada Act (ACA) of 2019 mandates proactive identification, removal, and prevention of accessibility barriers in federally regulated areas. The Accessibility Commissioner enforces the ACA, and Accessibility Standards Canada develops national accessibility standards. Provinces also have their own accessibility laws, like Ontario’s AODA, contributing to a broader commitment to inclusivity.
Implementing accessibility solutions expands your customer base by welcoming all individuals, demonstrating your commitment to inclusivity. It also enhances your brand reputation by showcasing your commitment to social responsibility and accessibility.
Accessibility solutions also improve employee satisfaction by creating a welcoming and inclusive work environment for everyone. Furthermore, complying with accessibility regulations protects your business from potential legal issues and fines.
