Commercial sliding doors are an excellent option for those who aim to meet accessibility standards while maximizing space. Unlike traditional doors that swing open and take up valuable room, sliding doors operate sideways. This means they don’t require extra space for swinging, allowing for better use of available areas.
Additionally, while accessibility standards provide essential guidelines, designers have the opportunity to go beyond these minimum requirements. Sliding doors can create wider openings, which increases access and movement for everyone. This not only improves overall accessibility but also optimizes the layout of a space, making it more functional and user-friendly. By incorporating ADA-compliant sliding doors, facilities can achieve both compliance and efficiency in their design.
