ADA Product & Compliance

Leed Logo.jpg

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a Federal civil rights law that prohibits the exclusion of people with disabilities from everyday activities. Bathrooms in all facilities must be made accessible for people with disabilities.

We stock a wide range of products that meet all ADA requirements for public restrooms, including:

  • Mirrors (adjustable and fixed)

  • Paper towel dispensers

  • Soap dispensers

  • Toilet Paper Dispensers

  • Feminine napkin disposal units

  • Grab bars

  • Trash receptacles

  • Hand dryers

Tax Credits & Deductions

To assist businesses with complying with the ADA, Section 44 of the IRS Code allows a tax credit for small businesses and Section 190 of the IRS Code allows a tax deduction for all businesses.

The tax credit is available to businesses that have total revenues of $1,000,000 or less in the previous tax year or 30 or fewer full-time employees. This credit can cover 50% of the eligible access expenditures in a year up to $10,250 (maximum credit of $5000). The tax credit can be used to offset the cost of undertaking barrier removal and alterations to improve accessibility; providing accessible formats such as Braille, large print and audio tape; making available a sign language interpreter or a reader for customers or employees, and for purchasing certain adaptive equipment.

The tax deduction is available to all businesses with a maximum deduction of $15,000 per year. The tax deduction can be claimed for expenses incurred in barrier removal and alterations.
