ADA Signs

American Disability Signs

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal law that requires public buildings to be accessible to people with disabilities, including those with visual impairments. Specifically, the ADA signs mandate certain requirements for signage in public buildings to ensure that individuals with visual disabilities can navigate their surroundings effectively.

 

These requirements include rules for the placement, size, font, and color of signs. For example, ADA compliant signs must have high contrast between the text and background colors to make them easier to read for those with low vision. In addition, signs must have tactile characters and Braille to assist individuals with visual impairments in understanding their surroundings.

 

As a result, it’s crucial for building owners and managers to ensure that their signs comply with ADA regulations to avoid potential legal and financial penalties. That’s where Master Print comes in – we specialize in creating custom ADA compliant signs that meet all of the necessary requirements.

ADA Signs for Easy ADA Signage Compliance

The primary purpose of signs is to communicate information to as many people as possible. This is particularly important for signs that direct and orient people inside and around a building. With signs that are difficult to understand or see, it can be much harder to get around and accomplish what you want to get done. ADA signs such as Braille signs, pictogram signs, and more ensure that people of any ability can easily navigate a space.

Where ADA Signs Are Needed

Signs that identify a room that is permanently used for a specific purpose must be ADA compliant. Some examples of space that must have ADA compliant signs include:
Directory signs, parking signs, and temporary signs that will only be displayed for a short period of seven days or less aren’t mandated to be ADA compliant. However, in situations where it is unclear whether or not a sign requires ADA compliant elements, it is generally better to play it safe and opt for compliance. Adding Braille and raised lettering may not result in a significant cost increase, but neglecting to include these necessary features on a sign that requires them can result in substantial fines. Furthermore, having ADA compliant signs is not only a legal requirement, but it is also advantageous for visually impaired customers as it helps them navigate the property more effectively, improving their overall experience.
