ADA Compliant refers to lighting fixtures that adhere to the guidelines set out in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to make public spaces more accessible to people with and without disabilities. The ADA requires all wall lighting in public places mounted between 28″ and 80″ above the floor to project from the wall 4″ or less. This provides ample clearance for those who are in a wheelchair to minimize the chance of bumping into a wall sconce or wall-mounted light and being injured.
