Mounting requirements of accessories may vary depending on the location of accessories and the direction of reach required for use. As a general guideline operating features of accessories should be mounted "above the finished floor" to allow forward reach by people in wheelchairs. Throughout this catalogue a wheelchair symbol is used to identify models that are accessible when mounted at approved heights. The wheelchair symbol is also used to identify products specifically designed to assist people with limited mobility and provide barrier-free access. 3
