Minnesota Accessibility Code 2015 > 6 Plumbing Elements and Facilities > 604 Water Closets and Toilet Compartments > 604.5 Grab Bars > 604.5.2 Rear Wall Grab Bars
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
ILLUSTRATION
The rear wall grab bar shall be 36 inches (915 mm) minimum in length, and extend from the centerline of the water closet 12 inches (305 mm) minimum on the side closest to the wall, and 24 inches (610 mm) minimum on the transfer side.
Exceptions:
  1. The rear grab bar shall be permitted to be 24 inches (610 mm) minimum in length, centered on the water closet, where wall space does not permit a grab bar 36 inches (915 mm) minimum in length due to the location of a recessed fixture adjacent to the water closet.
  2. Where an administrative authority requires flush controls for flush valves to be located in a position that conflicts with the location of the rear grab bar, that grab bar shall be permitted to be split or shifted to the open side of the toilet area.
Note: For children's dimensions see Figure 609.4.2
