Accessible Shower Compartment Types (2010 ADA Standards 608.2)

TRANSFER is 36 x 36 in -- the only one that fits a standard alcove -- but its OUTSIDE clearance is 36 x 48 from the control wall, deeper than the stall itself. STANDARD ROLL-IN is 30 x 60 with a 60 in entry, meaning the whole long side is open, which a curb or jamb defeats. ALTERNATE ROLL-IN is 36 x 60 with a 36 in entry on one long side. It also reports which types a compartment WOULD satisfy as built, because a stall that fails one often meets another.

transfer type: 36 x 36 in clear inside, 36 in wide entry, 36 x 48 in clearance from the control wall. Standard roll-in: 30 in wide by 60 in deep clear inside, 60 in wide entry, 30 x 60 in clearance adjacent to the open face. Alternate roll-in: 36 in wide by 60 in deep clear inside, 36 in wide entry at one end of the long side.
