Learn the Latest ADA Bar Design Standards in 5 Minutes

Hello guys, does the width of the ADA area has to be 60"? I was under the understanding that minimum width was 30 to 48?

[@Bardesigners]

Thanks for the question, Paulo. The federal ADA standard is 60" clear width, 19" deep (from the closest point on the face of the bar) and not more than 34" high (from the top of the finished floor). Here is the download that references this www.dropbox.com/s/a5rldodql5fjq4s/ADA%20GUIDE%20FOR%20SMALL%20BUSINESSES.pdf?dl=0 . The passage is cited in the first paragraph on P.16. Good luck!

Is that required if the bar also provides ADA seating at tables???

[@Bardesigners]

Yes. Federal law requires ADA accommodations for each type of seating. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
