ADA Compliance For Window Coverings?
Opening and closing shutter slats, moving shades up and down, or pulling vertical blinds completely out of the way is not an easy operation for everybody. The wands, strings, and chains we rely on can be difficult to control for people with disabilities.
The ADA has three main standards for accessible blinds, shades, and shutters.
- ADA Standard. 9.2.2(5); 4.27.4 — Window coverings must have easy-to-operate controls that do not require tight grasping, pinching, or twisting of the wrist.
- ADA Standard. 9.2.2(5); 4.27.3 — Window shade controls should be easily placed within 54″ of the floor for side approach or 48″ of the floor for a forward approach.
- 28 CFR 36.304(b)(4) — Window covering should be approachable and easily controlled for guests who use wheelchairs, crutches, and other mobility aids.
Accessible Brands For Blinds, Shades & Shutters
The good news is that when you work with a blinds company offering custom options, the possibilities are endless. You have access to a wide range of types, sizes, and styles. These include ADA-compliant blinds, shades, and shutters. We also work with a wide variety of popular window treatment brands that offer ADA models or that can make your selection compliant with modifications.
If you don’t see the brand you’re interested in on this list, give us a call to learn how we can customize your preferred blinds or shades.
Should You Go Motorized?
Motorized window shades are one of the easiest ways to meet ADA requirements in commercial spaces like hospitals, hotels, and senior living facilities. They remove the need for manual operation and make controls simple and consistent. Options include wall switches, remotes, and smart controls, allowing staff or occupants to adjust window coverings with ease while improving accessibility and efficiency across every room.
