Wall opening and installation
Provide a minimum rough wall opening of 15-1/2 inches wide by 19 inches high by 4-1/8 inches deep. For drywall, provide adequate in-wall reinforcement; suitable anchors and fasteners for other wall conditions are by others. ASI's installation guidance says to place the top edge of the towel dispenser opening no higher than 48 inches above finished floor for the specified accessibility guidance only when clear-floor reach access is provided; local requirements may call for a 40-inch maximum. For general utility, ASI gives a 49- to 56-inch range. Confirm project conditions and applicable codes before locating the unit.
