ADA Accessibility Guidelines

The ADA Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) are rules that ensure buildings, facilities, and services are accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. They specify standards for things like door widths, ramps, elevators, restrooms, and signage, so that individuals with mobility, visual, or auditory challenges can navigate and use spaces independently and safely. These guidelines promote equal access and inclusion, helping to remove physical barriers and ensuring compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Overall, ADAAG fosters a more equitable environment by making public and private spaces accessible to all.
