Illinois accessibility code question.
On a review I made a review comment that the handicap accessible bathroom door needed to meet the requirement for fig 25a. Which depicts the direction of travel towards a door on the push side that swings into the bathroom. On the outside of the door it shows a 48" deep by dimension of the door plus x wide area to navigate opening the door. A note is at the bottom. x = 12 in. if door has both a closer and latch.
The DP called and said he was under the impression that if he did not provide the closer nor the latch, that this 12 inch maneuvering clearance was not required.
Now I am feeling a bit confused. On page 48 for "doors" #5 lists maneuvering clearances at doors and does not seem to exempt out doors for not having closers or latches.
