Salamander ADA Rail System One, 108" (9') Front Rail, Satin Stainless - AR1/108/SS

Product Overview

The Salamander AR1/108/SS is a 108-inch satin stainless ADA rail installed beneath a wall-mounted display to make the protruding panel detectable by cane. At nine feet it is the longest rail in the System One range, sized for very large displays, multi-panel arrays, and video walls in circulation space. It addresses an accessibility requirement that frequently surfaces late in AV projects.

Product Description

Accessibility guidelines require wall-mounted objects protruding more than four inches into a circulation path within the cane-detection zone to be made detectable. Large-format displays and video walls exceed that projection comfortably, which means a signage wall in a lobby or corridor can create a compliance issue the AV scope never accounted for — usually discovered at inspection, when remediation costs the most.

The front rail places a detectable element below the display within cane sweep range, announcing the protrusion before contact. Satin stainless is specified because it survives public-space traffic and repeated cleaning better than painted alternatives, and it reads as intentional architectural hardware. At 108 inches this rail spans installations that shorter rails cannot cover; 48, 60, 72, and 84-inch lengths are available for smaller panels.

Key Features

• Cane-Detectable Protrusion Guard — Announces a wall-mounted display to cane users before contact.
• 108-Inch Span — The longest rail in the range, for large displays, arrays, and video walls.
• Satin Stainless Construction — Withstands public-space traffic and repeated cleaning.
• Architectural Appearance — Reads as intentional hardware rather than a retrofitted fix.
• Mount-Independent — Installs beneath the display regardless of mount manufacturer.
• Design-Stage Specification — Ordering with the mount avoids post-inspection remediation costs.

Typical Applications

• Lobby and corridor video walls
• Circulation paths with large-format digital signage
• Government and public-sector buildings
• Commercial meeting space and shared corridors
• House of worship common areas

Frequently Asked Questions

When does a video wall require an ADA rail?

When the assembly protrudes more than four inches into a circulation path within the cane-detection zone. Large-format arrays routinely do. Confirm the requirement with your architect or code authority for the specific installation.

Can one 108-inch rail cover a multi-panel array?

It spans further than any other rail in the range, but the detectable element must span the full protrusion. For very wide arrays, multiple rails may be required — send us the elevation and we will confirm.

Does it work with any mount brand?

Yes. The rail installs beneath the display independently of the mount. Coordinate rail height against your mount depth during layout. Contact our team to verify before ordering.
