Chevron Horizontal

The chevron-horizontal icon represents bidirectional horizontal controls, width adjustment features, and left-right navigation in resizable and carousel interfaces. Featuring paired chevrons pointing left and right, this icon is commonly used to indicate horizontal resizing, carousel navigation controls, panel width adjustment, and bidirectional horizontal movement in image galleries, split views, and responsive layouts.

In modern applications like image carousel controls in e-commerce product galleries, panel resizing handles in development tools like VS Code, horizontal scroll indicators in content sliders, or split pane adjusters in file managers, you'll see this horizontal chevron pair representing left-right interactivity. It appears in carousel navigation allowing users to browse products horizontally, in resizable panel dividers for adjusting content width, or in horizontal scrolling interfaces indicating additional content exists in both directions.

From a spatial control perspective, the horizontal chevron pair communicates more than just 'move sideways' - it specifically indicates bidirectional control, the ability to navigate or adjust in both horizontal directions, and the interactive affordance for width-based manipulation or left-right content browsing. This directionality clarity helps users understand they have control over horizontal space and can navigate content in either direction.

Chevron Horizontal is one of 458 icons in Akar Icons, made by Arturo Wibawa and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds ChevronHorizontalIcon to components/icons/akar-icons-chevron-horizontal.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed ChevronHorizontalIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Chevron Horizontal icon, or any of 458 Akar Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Chevron Horizontal is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Chevron Horizontal", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. ChevronHorizontalIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <ChevronHorizontalIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Akar Icons, Arturo Wibawa and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are navigation, resize, chevron, horizontal, carousel and bidirectional. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Chevron Horizontal in another set.
