What are ADA Signs?

ADA Signs are business signs that need to follow certain guidelines as mandated by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). These guidelines aim to promote accessibility for all your visitors in New York. Accessibility signs are important to keep your customers comfortable and safe while in your facility.

These signs need to follow specific guidelines in terms of:

  1. Sign placement
  2. Color contrast
  3. Font size and style
  4. Inclusion of braille

While these signs need to have specific elements, you still have opportunities to customize them. Here at Street Style Sign Studio, we create custom ADA signs designed to highlight your brand. This lets you maintain compliance while giving your brand a boost! 

Types of ADA Signage

Every business should be familiar with ADA guidelines. Aside from making your business more accessible, these avoid any future penalties or liabilities. As such, it is crucial to talk to your local sign maker in NYC about the different types of signs you need. Here are some examples:

  1. ADA Wayfinding Signs: These signs help customers find their way around your New York facility in a convenient way. Wayfinding signs typically have easy-to-read and understand language and graphics.
  2. ADA Braille Signs: Not all signs need to include braille. According to ADA standards, these are required for signs that identify public buildings and permanent spaces. For example, door signs for offices that have permanent occupants need to have braille.
  3. ADA Restroom Signs: Restroom signs also need to be ADA-compliant. This makes it easier for customers to identify and enter the right bathroom.
  4. ADA Parking Signs: These signs mark parking spaces that are reserved for people with disabilities. They usually include metal pole signs with a wheelchair pictogram. Often, New York businesses also mark these spaces with a floor graphic.

A Glance at ADA Guidelines

From the finish and contrast to the pictogram field and the text descriptors, all these essential components help ensure your business’s signs are ADA-compliant:

  • Raised characters: Under the Act, it’s vital that your sign not only adhere to line spacing, character proportions, and height, but signs also need to be of the right depth, stroke thickness, and style.
  • Visual characters: Choosing the right style, contrast, and finish is an integral part of making your signs ADA-compliant. You will also need to consider the distance the sign is from the floor and the visual characters you are using in the sign.
  • Height and location of installation: Did you know all doors, including single, double, and even doors with no walls, all need to meet individual specifications? You want your space to look accessible and represent your business’s commitment to being more inclusive. To make this happen, your signs need to be the correct height from the ground.
  • Accessibility symbols: By having the appropriate finish and contrasting colors, International Symbols of Accessibility, TTY, Assistive Listening Systems, and Volume Control Telephones will all go a long way to ensuring your business remains compliant under the ADA.
