Nitterhouse Masonry has a nearly century-old history of providing the best in concrete products for both residential and commercial applications. We are particularly proud to offer these safe pavers for pedestrians with disabilities. The textured truncated dome surface easily and comfortably alerts the visually impaired that they have stepped onto different terrain, indicating that some change in the landscape is near.
These great visually impaired (VIP) pavers, which fully comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act, provide a textured surface that is easier to walk on as well as a warning that a curb, step or other drop-offs may be near. Available in a variety of colors, they are also attractive and suitable for a decorative addition around your pool, the walkway to your building or your patio.
We want to do everything we can to help all people appreciate and enjoy the world around them, and we think you will, too. Maybe you want to help your friends with disabilities or mobility impairments have an easier time getting around your home. Or perhaps you own a business and recognize your legal and moral obligation to help those with disabilities avoid injury in and around your property. Everyone can benefit from these practical and stylish pavers, no matter the reason.
Visually impaired pavers, also called tactile pavers, help pedestrians with visual impairments walk safely and confidently in outdoor environments. You can install VIP pavers in a variety of outdoor areas to help create a more accessible community.
