Understanding ADA Compliance

Understanding ADA Compliance

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

Why You Might Receive an ADA Compliance Letter

ADA enforcement operates on a complaint-driven basis. In Ohio and across the U.S., government officials do not routinely visit businesses to check for ADA compliance. However, once a formal complaint is filed, various agencies will investigate — and any individual can initiate legal action at any time.

At ADA Compliance Network, we provide up-to-date, cost-effective solutions to help your business meet all Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and avoid lawsuits, penalties, and compliance issues.

Example of ADA Requirements

  • Counter Height: Service counters must be no higher than 34 inches.

  • Self-Service Restaurants: Must allow adequate maneuvering space for wheelchair users, with minimum aisle widths of 36 inches.

  • Fixed Seating: If tables are permanently fixed, at least 5% must be accessible, offering 27 inches of knee clearance and movable chairs.

Common ADA Remediation Needs

We understand the complex requirements of ADA, ADAAG, ABA, FHA, and other regulatory bodies that govern accessibility laws nationwide and in Ohio. Typical ADA upgrades include:

  • Accessible Entrances & Exits
  • Parking Lot Adjustments
  • Restroom Modifications
  • Interior Path of Travel Enhancements
  • Signage & Wayfinding
  • Elevators & Lifts
  • Service Counter Adjustments
