Compliance Is Non-Negotiable

Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act is non-negotiable for commercial properties, and getting it right protects both your visitors and your business.

Every Braille sign we fabricate uses federally mandated Grade 2 Braille, raised tactile characters precisely measured for compliance, and a non-glare matte background to improve visibility for low-vision readers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What information is required on a custom Braille sign?

Permanent rooms and spaces must be identified, including restrooms, exits, stairs and room numbers. The sign must feature raised characters, Grade 2 Braille, and meet the required contrast ratio.

Are there specific color requirements for Braille office signs?

The ADA doesn’t mandate specific colors, but dark text on a light background (or vice versa) is recommended to maximize visibility for low-vision readers.

How do custom Braille signs reduce legal liability?

Non-compliance with the ADA can lead to federal lawsuits and hefty fines. Installing certified, compliant Braille signage demonstrates due diligence and adherence to the law.

Braille signage is a legal obligation, not a finish option.

Non-compliance with the ADA carries real exposure, and Braille signage is one of the most visible and most easily checked requirements in a building. Character height, dot profile, mounting position and contrast are all specified.

Fabricating to that standard in materials that survive Florida humidity and UV is what keeps a compliant sign compliant several years after installation, rather than fading into something a reviewer would fail.
