Disability Made Easy

Disability Made Easy

by | Feb 12, 2025 | LBN Home, Troy

The Troy-based company Disability Made Easy installs wheelchair ramps, stair railings, grab bars, and other equipment that people might need to make their homes accessible and safe. The company was founded by two brothers whose father was diagnosed with ALS. When the home modifications they’d had done didn’t meet their standards, they started working on modifications themselves, and that inspired them to open Disability Made Easy. The company has been in operation since 2006.
