If the roof can be accessed by clients and they can stand on the roof (meaning it is flat) just as they would be able to stand on an outside balcony, and the roof is either within 20 ft. of ground level or accessible to the fire department, it is acceptable as a secondary means of escape (not as a primary means of escape).
