Construction
Raised & Braille signage is produced by applying a 1/32” thick letter material to a substrate, cutting out the letters with our laser, and weeding in much the same way that vinyl is. Braille is added by drilling precision holes and inserting plastic or metal beads.
Art & Design
In house layouts are much preferred, but we can work from your art when necessary. All braille must be created in house.
Miscellany
Overall Size limit is 18x32.
The ADA is a complex civil rights law that impacts the signage industry in many ways. We are not ADA experts. Our signs are only ADA compliant in the aspects that we control. Those aspects are: finish, contrast, grade 2 braille, letter height and letters raised 1/32” off the sign face. If you request designs, materials or constructions that take away our ability to control one or more of these aspects, your signs may not be ADA compliant. We regret that we cannot make recommendations regarding other aspects of the ADA such as sign placement or text or even if a given sign is required to be raised & braille!
