Side Approach
Clear space for a side approach is specified for units that are free-standing or built-in. Space must be available so that a person using a wheelchair can align properly with the unit. Additional space is required where space is obstructed on both sides, which allows additional maneuvering for turns into the space. Recommendation: Since a close approach is often necessary, this space is helpful even at recesses less than 15 inches deep.
