Grab bar clearance

ADA Fail

Richard Duncan | September 14, 2017 at 6:09PM (edited)

Have local authorities accepted one-piece dispensers in toilet  compartments that are recessed behind the horizontal grab bars? These units stick out ¼" or so. ANSI 117.1 allows it in 609.3 (2). ADAS doesn't seem to make any allowance for this and I haven't yet found an official statement that will accept a unit like that in a location like that.
