Distance Between Entrance Doors & Teller Station

Question: 
Is there a legal requirement in the distance between the entrance doors and the first place (teller station) to obtain cash?
Answer: 

Not that I know of. The optimal distance takes into account the time it takes for the first teller to become aware of a threat plus the teller's response time. With so many different building configurations and human capabilities, I can't see how you could compute this.
