Work Aisle
The width of a work aisle should be at least 42” for one cook and at least 48” for multiple cooks. Measure between the counter frontage, tall cabinets and/or appliances
42” = 42 inches
Recommended
A clear floor space of at least 30” by 48” should be provided at each kitchen appliance. Clear floor spaces can overlap
In a U-shaped kitchen, plan a minimum clearance of 60” between opposing arms
Include a wheelchair turning space with a diameter of at least 60”, which can include knee* and toe* clearances
A wheelchair turning space could utilize a T-shaped clear space, which is a 60” square with two 12” wide x 24” deep areas removed from the corners of the square. This leaves a minimum 36” wide base and two 36” wide arms. T-shaped wheelchair turning spaces can include knee and toe clearances
* Knee clearance must be a minimum 30” wide (36” to use as part of the T-turn) and maintain a 27” clear space under the cabinet, counter or sink for a depth of 8”. The next 3” of depth may slope down to a height of 9”, with a clear space of at least 17” extending beneath the
element
*
Toe clearance space under a cabinet or appliance is between the floor and 9” above the floor. Where toe clearance is required as part of a clear floor space, the toe clearance should extend 17” minimum beneath the element
