ADA Compliance
Meeting ADA Compliance with Vandal Stop
Meeting ADA Compliance is critical for our customers and we work hard to provide solutions that meet ADA requirements. It is important to consult with your ADA compliance offer when speccing and installing any fixture that is to be used in an ADA compliant stall. Some of the larger Jumbo Roll dispenser units may need to have the Grab Bar installed at the maximum height in order to provide enough space between the bar and the top of the dispenser while keeping enough space for the minimum paper dispensing height. Some installs may also require a partial recessment of the dispenser as well.
