Protruding Objects [4.31.4]
Wall- or post-mounted pay phones and enclosures, due to their location above the standard sweep of canes (i.e., 27 inches high from the floor), can be a hazard to people with vision impairments. Telephone placement and enclosures must be designed and installed so that the telephone is not a hazardous protruding object. Enclosures with a bottom edge that is within 27 inches from the floor or ground are detectable by cane.
