# ButtonGroup Disabled State

The ButtonGroup is enabled by default. Set the [`disabled`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui-develop/components/buttons/api/buttongroupcomponent#disabled) property of the ButtonGroup to `true` to disable the whole group of buttons.

To disable a specific button, set its own `disabled` property to `true` and leave the `disabled` property of the ButtonGroup undefined. When the ButtonGroup `disabled` property is defined, it takes precedence over the `disabled` properties of the underlying buttons.

The following example demonstrates how to disable the whole ButtonGroup and a single button.
