Which of the following is not a requirement for an accessible entrance in a commercial building?

  1. Ramped approach

  2. Automatic door opener

  3. Minimum width of 1.2 meters

  4. Level landing at entrance

The correct answer is: Minimum width of 1.2 meters

An accessible entrance in a commercial building is required to have a ramped approach, an automatic door opener, and a level landing at the entrance. These features ensure that individuals with mobility impairments can enter the building comfortably and without barriers. The width requirement of 1.2 meters is incorrect because it should actually be a minimum of 1.5 meters to accommodate individuals using wheelchairs, walkers, or other mobility aids. Therefore, this option is not a requirement for an accessible entrance in a commercial building.
