Handrails shall not rotate within their fittings; handrails shall be mounted at a consistent height between 34 inches and 38 inches high and at least 1½ inches from the wall; gripping surfaces and adjacent surfaces shall be free of sharp or abrasive elements and shall have rounded edges; and gripping surfaces shall not be obstructed along their tops or sides and the bottoms shall not be obstructed for more than 20% of their length and shall have no horizontal projections occurring closer than 1½ inches from the bottom of the gripping surface (except that the distance between horizontal projections and the bottom of the gripping surface can be reduced by inch for each ½ inch of handrail perimeter over 4 inches). Standards §§ 206.2, 405.8, 505.
Provide a power operated swinging door that has two guide rails or walls that project from the face of the door jambs a distance of at least the width of the door on the outward swing side, or to at least the outside leading edge of the activating carpet less 5 inches; are a minimum of 30 inches high measured from the floor surface; have panels or dividers to inhibit access to the protected area; have a maximum of 6 inches of clearance between the rail and the door in the fully open position, or between the rail and the leading edge of the door at the point in its arc of travel where it is closest to the rail; and that have a 2 inch minimum clearance between the rail at the hinge side and the door in the fully open position. Free standing guide rails shall have a maximum dimension between the rail and the jamb (or other adjacent surface) of 2 inches. Standards § 404.3, ANSI/BHMA A156.10‑1999.

Provide a ramp that is at least 36 inches wide between handrails, with a slope not exceeding 8.33% and a cross slope not exceeding 2.08%; with level landings at least as wide as the ramp and 60 inches long at the top and bottom of every ramp run; with level landings at least 60 inches by 60 inches when the ramp changes direction; and with no changes in level other than the slope and cross-slope. The ramp shall have no run containing a rise greater than 30 inches. On each side of ramp runs and landings, provide edge protection that consists of either an extended ground surface at least 12 inches beyond the edge of the surface of the ramp or landing, or a curb or barrier that prevents the passage of a 4 inch diameter sphere where any part of the sphere is within 4 inches of the surface. On both sides of ramps with rises greater than 6 inches, provide handrails that have a diameter between 1¼ and 2 inches or a perimeter between 4 inches and 6¼ inches and a cross section of no more than 2¼ inches such that the handrails are continuous along the full length of the ramp run. Inside handrails on switchbacks or doglegs shall be continuous between runs; handrails shall have a continuous gripping surface extending at least 12 inches beyond the top and bottom of the ramp parallel with the ground surface; extensions shall return to the wall, guard, or landing surface (or continue on as handrails); handrails shall not rotate within their fittings; handrails shall be mounted at a consistent height between 34 inches and 38 inches above the ramp surface and at least 1½ inches from the wall; gripping surfaces and adjacent surfaces shall be free of sharp or abrasive elements and have rounded edges; and gripping surfaces shall not be obstructed along their tops or sides and the bottoms shall not be obstructed for more than 20% of their length and have no horizontal projections occurring closer than 1½ inches from the bottom of the gripping surface (except that the distance between horizontal projections and the bottom of the gripping surface can be reduced by inch for each ½ inch of handrail perimeter over 4 inches). If the ramp is subject to wet conditions, landings shall be designed to prevent the accumulation of water. Standards §§ 206.2, 405, 505.
