Cranbrook recognizes 2024 Age Friendly Business Nominees:

Gipman Kitchen and Cabinetry

Kootenay Ramps and Access

Fine and Well: Health and Chiropractic





An age friendly business is one that considers the needs of older adults and creates a barrier-free environment so that persons of all ages and abilities can visit, shop and participate fully. An age friendly environment benefits people of all ages and abilities and makes your business more appealing to all shoppers. This can include older adults, persons with disabilities, mental illness, cognitive impairment, injury or parents with small children or strollers.  We thank the following businesses for their efforts.


Gipman Kitchens & Cabinetry is a family-owned custom cabinet manufacturer that has proudly served Cranbrook and the Kootenays since 1988. With over 35 years of experience, we design, build, and install high-quality, locally made cabinetry, offering a wide range of custom options for homeowners. We follow NKBA's Living in Place standards, ensuring our designs meet the needs of clients at all stages of life, providing both functionality and safety for aging in place. Our mission is to combine craftsmanship with personalized service to bring dream kitchens to life.


Kootenay Ramps and Access is a small family run business that offers temporary modular wheelchair ramping systems for rent, rent-to-own, or purchase throughout the East Kootenay Region. Our ramps are pre-fabricated, Canadian made, extremely safe and durable, and very low maintenance. We offer free home assessments to help determine the ramping needs of our client's based on their means of mobility, BC Building Code requirements, and their individual home entry way. We are able to install our ramps in a matter of hours, which allows our clients to have safe access to their home quickly. Whether the client needs a ramp temporarily or long term, our rental or purchase options make it possible to meet their needs, and do so without delay. We also serve small businesses and events who want to improve their accessibility for all.


Fine and Well has been in Cranbrook for almost 10 years. We offer chiropractic care as well as massage, shockwave therapy, and custom orthotics. Regular chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy treatments can help alleviate pain, improve posture, increase mobility, and help subside degenerative aliments and symptoms. As we age, we have higher risk of falling, chiropractic adjustments can improve posture, which can help reduce this risk.
