There are all sorts of signs, some meant to brand your company, others are to have a pleasing aesthetic look. In this case ADA signs are utilized to inform important instructions to consumers and staff in public locations. Some information these signs might consist of are navigation’s, details about a business, products, services, regulatory information and more. In 1990 the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed. This act included ensuring information would be legible and available for all people.

The ADA includes requirements and specifications for the delivery of information through signs. This incorporates many types of information including:

  • Entrances and Exits
  • Stairways
  • Elevators
  • Wheelchair Accessible Areas
  • Restrooms
  • Evacuation Plans
  • Contact Details
  • And More!

There are many guidelines with specifications that ensure all this information is legible to any person. Some of them include Height and Size of Installation, Sign Placement, Images and Logos, Color Contrast, Grade 2 Braille, and more.

If your business accommodates the public such as a museum, library, theater, and even other public area ADA signs are not a choice they are required by law! If your business fails to  display these signs properly you can face fines up to  $150,000! Here at City Signs we are familiar with all the regulations and specifications of an ADA sign.
