ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT
At The Square Offices (TSO), our commitment to delivering zero-friction corporate environments extends beyond digital networks and power sovereignty into the very physical fabric of our spaces. We believe that executive prestige and peak professional productivity must be universally accessible to all members, multinational landing teams, C-suite leaders, and training delegates.
This Accessibility Statement outlines the purpose-built structural standards, architectural adjustments, and operational protocols actively maintained across our active prototype at The Phoenix, Ikeja GRA (Ground Floor) to ensure an authoritative, inclusive, and seamless experience for individuals with diverse physical, sensory, or mobility requirements.
1. PERIMETER ACCESS & PARKING LOGISTICS
The entry sequence into The Phoenix is designed to eliminate physical friction and transit stress before an executive even steps out of their vehicle.
-
Dedicated Accessible Parking: Meticulously marked, oversized accessible parking bays are permanently reserved within the secure perimeter carpark, positioned at the closest possible proximity to the main entrance.
-
SPS Valet & Parking Assistance: In partnership with our master facility managers, Swindon Facility Management Ltd (SPS Facility Management), trained security personnel provide immediate arrival assistance, wheelchair deployment support, and prioritized valet routing.
-
Step-Free Approach: The transit pathway from the vehicle drop-off zone to the main entrance features continuous, step-free, smooth concrete grading with a non-slip textured finish to accommodate wheelchairs, motorized mobility scooters, and rollators flawlessly.
2. ARCHITECTURAL CIRCULATION & GROUND FLOOR ECOSYSTEM
As the exclusive manager and anchor tenant of the entire Ground Floor, The Square Offices has optimized the structural layout to ensure effortless horizontal mobility.
-
Turnkey Thresholds & Clearance: The main entrance features automated, wide-clearance electronic glass doors. All internal structural doorways leading into our private office, meeting rooms, and shared amenities maintain a minimum clear opening width of 900mm.
-
Zero-Threshold Flooring: The ground floor reception, high-prestige lobby lounge, and corridors utilize flush, zero-threshold flooring transitions. Premium minimalist tiling and hard surfaces are completely free of raised lips, deep carpets, or unexpected steps, minimizing trip hazards and ensuring low rolling resistance.
-
Expansive Corridors: Main circulation arteries are engineered with wide corridors (minimum 1500mm width) to allow multi-directional flow and effortless turning radiuses for mobility equipment.
3. AMENITY & HOSTING ASSET COMPLIANCE
Our complimentary and paid shared institutional assets are physically optimized to ensure independent usage and dignity for all occupants.
-
Meeting Rooms: Equipped with modular, reconfigurable executive tables and wide peripheral clearances to seamlessly integrate wheelchair seating at any position around the boardroom array.
-
Auditorium: Features dedicated, step-free accessible seating zones at the primary floor level with uncompromised, direct sightlines to the primary presentation screens and integrated connectivity ports.
-
The Hospitality Core (Restaurant & Cafeteria): Seating arrangements feature optimized clearance heights to accommodate assistive mobility devices comfortably. Step-free self-service pathways are maintained at all times.
-
Executive Kitchenette: Countertops and refreshment dispensing stations feature an accessible split-level design, ensuring tea, coffee, and uncapped premium water options are easily reachable.
4. SANITARY INFRASTRUCTURE
-
Purpose-Built Accessible Restrooms: The Ground Floor houses a dedicated, fully compliant accessible executive restroom.
-
Structural Specifications: This facility features an extra-wide outward-opening door, a generous internal turning circle (1500mm minimum), heavy-duty stainless steel grab rails anchored securely to structural walls, a low-level ergonomic washbasin with lever-operated monolithic taps, and an integrated emergency assistance pull-cord.
5. SENSORY & OPERATIONAL DISCIPLINE
In alignment with our proprietary Operational Manual, we enforce strict environmental standards to support sensory comfort and focus.
-
Minimalist Lighting Sovereignty: Public lobbies and private suites feature diffuse, high-CRI LED architectural lighting designed to mitigate harsh glares, hotspots, or high-frequency flickering, benefiting neurodivergent occupants or individuals with visual sensitivities.
-
Acoustic Isolation: Our spaces are built for quiet, confidential commerce. High-performance acoustic dampening wall panels isolate shared areas (like the Auditorium and Cafeteria) from private office corridors, maintaining a calm, low-stimulus environment.
-
Clear Visual Signage: High-contrast, minimalist directional signage featuring universally recognized iconography is mounted at standardized viewing heights throughout the floor to guide low-literacy or visually impaired visitors intuitively.
6. EMERGENCY EVACUATION & SAFEGUARD GUARANTEE
Physical accessibility is fundamentally linked to life safety sovereignty.
-
Synchronized SPS Safety Protocols: In coordination with Swindon Facility Management (SPS), TSO maintains a real-time, pre-vetted digital manifest of all building occupants.
-
Assisted Evacuation Matrix: In the highly unlikely event of an emergency evacuation, our trained on-site community team and fire wardens execute a structured "buddy system" protocol to guarantee that individuals requiring mobility assistance are safely, calmly, and securely escorted through the designated step-free emergency exits to the muster point.
