ADA Signage
How Braille is Made
In most states ADA compliant signage is required by law. Most ADA compliant signage includes three components. Pictograms which are raised tactile images of symbols which represent the text or wording of a sign. For example, a sign for a men's room would include a pictogram of a stick man in a defined field of 6" x 6". ADA compliant signage also includes raised or tactile lettering and it’s braille equivalent.
At Terra Reproductions we employee an ADA signage specialist, ensuring all your ADA signage and installations will comply with the latest ADA regulations. Our design team will also ensure your corporate image is reflected in any of the signs we produce. Whether you need 1 or 100 signs our specialists are always happy to share their expertise while meeting your signage requirements.
