Navigating The Toolbox

The Toolbox is ordered according to this general arrangement:

  • Category
    • Subcategory
      • Heading (sub-subcategory)
        • Individual product/solution

When you choose a category, its subcategories will appear along with all the products listed under that category.

Likewise, if you then click on a Subcategory, its Headings will appear with all products listed under that subcategory.

Within any category, subcategory, or heading, you can also filter products by:

  • Impairment category
    • Back
    • Hearing
    • Lower extremity
    • Memory
    • Respiratory
    • Strength/endurance
    • Upper extremity
    • Visual
    • All
  • Low-tech
    • Within the context of The Toolbox, “Low-tech” simply means that the device can be fabricated with readily available parts and materials, simple to use with minimal training, inexpensive to create, and is practical for farm use.
  • Currently Available products. Some products listed in The Toolbox are no longer produced, but their information is included for reference and archival purposes. Those products will not appear if you choose Currently Available.
If you would like to filter across ALL CATEGORIES—for example, if you want to see all products in The Toolbox useful back impairments or all low-tech products—select Filter All Products on the home page. Within that option, you can filter by:
  • Impairment category
  • Low-tech only
  • Only currently available available products

You can also use a dropdown menu in Filter All Products to navigate to other categories, subcategories, and headings.

To see all the products in The Toolbox from specific suppliers, click the Suppliers link at the top of any page. Once you select a supplier, click the supplier’s name to see all of its products listed in The Toolbox.
