HANDICAP STALLS - Side Entrance (Alcove) Handicap and Front Entrance ADA Handicap Compartment

On a Side Entrance (Alcove) Handicap Compartment,  ADA requires that you need 60" Wide Clear, as also needed on a Front Entrance Handicap Compartment.  On a Front Entrance Handicap Compartment, you need 48" from the very edge of the toilet to the back of the Handicap Compartment door.  On a Side Entrance Handicap Compartment, ADA requires 60" from the very edge of the toilet to whatever is in front of the toilet.
