Barrier-Free access
washroom guidelines: In washroom installations
designed to accommodate people with limited mobility and
wheelchairs, accessories should be mounted so that the operating
features meet local building codes. Mounting requirements of
accessories may vary depending on the location of accessories
and the direction of reach required for use. As a general
guideline operating features of accessories should be mounted
"above the finished floor" to allow forward reach by people in
wheelchairs. Throughout this catalogue a wheelchair symbol is
used to identify models that are accessible when mounted at
approved heights. The wheelchair symbol is also used to identify
products specifically designed to assist people with limited
mobility and provide barrier-free access.
