Do you work with building owners or contractors?
We have experience working with everyone involved, including building owners, contractors, subcontractors, and designers.
What are ADA-compliant signs, and why are they required?
ADA-compliant signs meet the standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act to ensure accessibility for individuals with disabilities. They include features like Braille, tactile lettering, and non-glare finishes to make navigation easier for everyone. Compliance is legally required for most public spaces to avoid fines and provide equal access.
What types of signs need to be ADA compliant?
Signs that identify permanent spaces, such as restrooms, room numbers, stairwells, and exits, must be ADA compliant. Temporary signs, like event notices or seasonal promotions, are generally exempt from these requirements.
What materials are used for ADA signage?
ADA signs are typically crafted from durable materials such as acrylic, metal, or wood. Non-glare finishes are required for visibility, and raised tactile elements are added to meet compliance standards.
How do I know if my signs meet ADA requirements?
ADA compliance involves precise specifications for text size, font, contrast, Braille, tactile elements, and installation placement. Partnering with a professional sign company ensures your signs are fabricated to meet these standards.
Can my ADA signs be customized to match my branding?
Yes, our ADA signage can be designed to align with your brand colors, logos, and overall aesthetic while remaining fully compliant. This allows your signage to maintain both functionality and visual appeal.
Is their a required installation setup for ADA signs?
ADA signs must be mounted so that the tactile characters are located between 48 and 60 inches above the floor. Signs identifying rooms are typically placed on the latch side of the door for consistency and accessibility.
Are Braille signs required on all ADA signage?
Not all ADA signs require Braille. Only signs that identify spaces, such as room numbers, restrooms, and elevators, must include Braille. Directional signs or informational signs generally do not require it.
Can wayfinding signs be ADA compliant too?
Yes, wayfinding signs can incorporate ADA-compliant features like tactile lettering and Braille where necessary. However, their main focus is on providing clear directions and navigation.
How long does it take to get my ADA sign package from Excel?
The timeline depends on the complexity or size of your project, but most ADA sign packages can be completed within 4 to 6 weeks, though this may not includes the planning and consultation phase.
What happens if my signage doesn’t meet ADA standards during an inspection?
Non-compliance can result in fines or mandatory updates to meet ADA requirements. Working with an experienced sign company like Excel means your signage is compliant from the start, avoiding potential issues down the line.
