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

  1. Ramped approach

  2. Automatic door opener

  3. Minimum width of 0.9 meters

  4. Level landing at entrance

The correct answer is: Minimum width of 0.9 meters

The other three options are all necessary requirements for an accessible entrance in a residential building. A ramped approach allows for individuals using mobility aids, such as a wheelchair, to enter the building with ease. An automatic door opener is crucial for individuals with limited mobility or physical disabilities who may have difficulty opening a heavy door. A level landing at the entrance ensures a safe and smooth transition from the ramp or stairs to the building entrance. The minimum width of 0.9 meters is also an important factor for individuals using mobility aids to navigate through the entrance comfortably. Therefore, out of all the options, the minimum width of 0.9 meters is the only one that is not a requirement for an accessible entrance in a residential building.
