Accessible Doorways

Doors require a certain amount of clear space around them to allow individuals using wheelchairs or other mobility devices. In all cases, the maneuvering space should have a level surface, that is, a maximum slope of 1:48.

At least one door should be accessible at these locations:

Each accessible entrance (at least 60% of public entrances in newly built facilities must be accessible to individuals who use wheelchairs or have mobility impairments).
Each tenant space in a mall or other building with multiple business
Accessible rooms and spaces within buildings.
Entrances to buildings from all parking structures, tunnels or elevated
At least one restricted or secured entrance (if applicable).
Along each building’s required route of escape or
Public entrances serving different fixed routes within transit
