For those who manage a commercial space, it’s important to consider the dimensions of your bathroom partitions. Why? Because you want to ensure all customers can fit comfortably within your stalls, that you are ADA compliant, and that your facility is safe.
When it comes to the dimensions, a common question we get is how thick are your bathroom stall partitions? Bathroom stall partitions range in thickness based on their specific material. We offer five durable material options for you to choose from, ranging in thickness from ¾ inches to 1 inch.
