portaattomasti
Portaattomasti is a Finnish term used to describe access, routes, or features that do not require stairs. The word literally means “without stairs” and is commonly applied to entrances, corridors, platforms, and other facilities to indicate level or ramped access. It is frequently used in architectural descriptions, urban planning, and consumer product labels to emphasize ease of movement for people with mobility impairments, parents with strollers, or travelers with luggage.
In practice, portaattomasti implies provisions such as ramps, level thresholds, or lifts that enable wheelchair users
While portaattomasti is a useful shorthand for level access, it is part of a broader accessibility framework.
