This diagram details ADA accessibility clearance requirements for interior and exterior doors based on approach direction. The front approach configuration requires a minimum 60-inch pull side depth, a 48-inch push side depth, and a minimum 18-inch interior or 24-inch exterior latch side clearance. Hinge approach configurations require a 60-inch minimum depth with specific clearances ranging from 22 inches to 36 inches depending on the pull side and door hardware. Push approach layouts require a minimum 44-inch or 48-inch depth depending on the presence of closers and latches. Additional hallway and maneuvering clearances are dimensioned for multiple approach angles and double door layouts.
