Our Motivation

According to Statistics Canada, 1 in 10 Canadians aged 15 and older had a mobility disability in 2017, making it one of the most common disability types. Among those with physical disabilities, 44.9% required at least one type of aid or assistive device or an accessibility feature within their home. [1]

Canada's Pet Wellness Report: There are approximately 7.9 million cats and 5.9 million dogs in Canada. Approximately 35% percent of Canadian households have a dog, while approximately 38% have a cat. [2]

The Accessibility for Ontarians Disability Act (AODA), which came into effect in January of 2008, states that all businesses and multi-unit residential buildings must have fully accessible entrances by 2025 [3]. Therefore, automatic door openers are required by Ontario’s Building Code.
