...All of ours are set at around 1-1.2m...I don't have a reference from the UK for that but that is standard in all of out facilities - the height comes from US and AU guidance.. :)

Sorry for the echo. Why not use ATM guidance which is max 1.2m which places the equipment at a suitable height for the majority of the population who may have need to access including wheel chair users?

Is this a serious question?

Really, put it where people can reach
