Your project in the canton of Solothurn
The canton of Solothurn extends along the foot of the Jura and the Aare. The town of Solothurn, with its churches and Baroque houses, has an old town where getting around by vehicle is difficult. Olten, a railway hub, and Grenchen, shaped by watchmaking, have rental blocks and districts of family homes. Zuchwil and Biberist form a more residential suburban area, while Balsthal opens onto the Thal valley and its farms. In the north, Dornach lies within Basel's orbit. The canton is German-speaking, but your request can still be written in English. In the old town or for a change to a façade, it is essential to check with your municipality. Give the municipality, postcode and delivery access restrictions, especially if the building is in an old town.
- In Solothurn's old town, say whether access is via a pedestrian street or a courtyard.
- For a family home in Grenchen or Olten, give the year of construction and any work already carried out.
- For a farmhouse in the Thal, describe access to the building and the parts to be renovated.
Accessibility adaptations for people with reduced mobility in the canton of Solothurn
In the canton of Solothurn, the old towns of Solothurn and Olten sit alongside districts of family homes and more recent rental buildings. In the baroque centre of Solothurn, patrician houses have stone staircases and entrances marked by a few steps: any ramp must be in keeping with the setting. In Grenchen and Zuchwil, buildings from the industrial era have raised entrance halls and narrow lifts, which leads to platforms or indoor ramps being studied with the property management company. At the foot of the Jura, around Balsthal, houses on slopes call for sheltered outdoor access. For a visible alteration, contact the municipality.
- If your building's lift is too small for a wheelchair, ask the property management company whether a larger car has already been studied.
- For a patrician house, ask for a wrought-iron or wooden handrail, which blends in better than an industrial model.

Frequently asked questions
How should an accessible route be defined in Solothurn?
Identify the starting point, rooms and everyday tasks the route must connect, including entrances and shared areas. Note thresholds, door movement and equipment used without publishing medical diagnoses. Ask for assessment of the whole route, so adapting one doorway does not leave another practical obstacle unresolved.
How can I describe accessibility needs without medical details?
Explain the movements and tasks that are difficult, the equipment used and the relevant room or doorway dimensions. A description of the practical obstacle can support planning without a medical history. Ask for an assessment of the actual space and the proposed solution before selecting equipment.
What should I compare in adaptations for reduced mobility quotes?
Compare adaptations against the same practical needs, including door clearances, manoeuvring space and controls. Clarify installation, testing and making good surrounding finishes. Ask which assessments are necessary and who coordinates them; a product alone does not establish that the complete route is accessible.
How should I prepare for the adaptations for reduced mobility visit or work?
Prepare a simple route plan from the entrance to the rooms used most. Note thresholds, narrow points and items to retain. Discuss the proposed changes with the person who will use them, and arrange any specialist assessment privately when it is relevant.
