"In fact, for most public bathrooms, to be ADA compliant (American Disabilities Act), a hand dryer (with leading edges between 27 and 80 inches) that is located in a passage way must protrude less than 4” from the wall (so, that a person using a walking stick will not bump into it). "
"leading edges at 27” or below may protrude any amount"

Il s'agit de la légende d'un dessin. On y voit un homme de face avec une canne et il y a une flèche entre la distance qui sépare le mur et l'épaule externe de cette personne. Pas évident à expliquer comme ça.

Je vous remercie de votre aide.

neutral Jennifer Levey : A "protrusion" will be defined in terms of 'distance', not 'longueur'.

neutral Jennifer Levey : Sans "aucune" limite ? Let's take that to its logical conclusion: the dryer can protrude as far as the opposing wall of the passage way and still be ADA compliant?
