For small businesses the ADA requires that accessibility be improved without taking on excessive expenses that could harm the business.

3. If you own or operate a business that serves the public you must remove physical "barriers" that are "readily achievable," which means easily accomplishable without much difficulty or expense. The "readily achievable" requirement is based on the size and resources of the business. So larger businesses with more resources are expected to take a more active role in removing barriers than small businesses. The ADA also recognizes that economic conditions vary. When a business has resources to remove barriers, it is expected to do so; but when profits are down, barrier removal may be reduced or delayed.
