What's the logic behind requiring this to happen every time? Why not just have a handicap button like doors do, and letting the elevator stay efficient the rest of the time?
- ec109685 4y agoHow would a handicap person hit that button?
- josephcsible 4y agoThe same way they do when they hit the handicap buttons that open doors to buildings.
- yellow_lead 4y agoElevators should have lower buttons for the handicapped
- themitigating 4y ago"All handicapped people are in a wheel chair"
- yellow_lead 4y agoComplain to the government then. "Car Control Height. Maximum height for control buttons and mechanisms is 54 inches (1370 mm). Minimum height is 35 inches (890 mm)." https://www.ada-compliance.com/ada-compliance/ada-elevators.html https://www.ada-compliance.com/ada-compliance/ada-elevators....
