Abstract	Sanitation behaviour in shared restroom environments remains a persistent public health challenge, particularly in institutional and community settings. While infrastructure availability has improved under national sanitation initiatives, behavioural non-compliance—especially failure to flush after usage—continues to compromise hygiene standards. This paper presents the Clean Vibe Lavatory, a microcontroller-based sanitation enforcement system integrating door access control with flush verification logic. The model utilizes a touch sensor for entry activation, a servo motor-controlled door mechanism, a flush detection switch, and an LCD-based alert interface. Exit access remains restricted until flushing is completed, thereby embedding accountability into restroom usage. Prototype testing demonstrated complete compliance during controlled trials. The system offers a low-cost, scalable, and behaviour-driven sanitation solution aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation).
