Braille Signs
In New York City, signs that identify permanent rooms and spaces are not just informational; they are a legal requirement. ADA-compliant Braille signs are a non-negotiable part of any public building, ensuring accessibility and safety for all occupants and visitors.
Street Style Sign Studio is a leading NYC Braille sign maker specializing in the design, fabrication, and installation of fully compliant ADA signage. We are experts in the complex federal and local regulations, helping building owners, contractors, and managers navigate compliance with confidence and avoid costly violations.
We provide custom Braille signs for businesses, medical facilities, hotels, and residential buildings across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island, and Jersey City.
For any public-access building, “close enough” is not an option. Failing an inspection, facing fines, or, worst of all, being inaccessible to a segment of the population is a significant liability. Partnering with an expert Braille sign maker is a critical risk-management decision.
Non-compliant signs are a primary reason for failing building inspections and can trigger accessibility lawsuits. Our signs are a safeguard, ensuring you meet all legal requirements.
The purpose of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) is to provide equal access. Correctly specified and installed Braille signs are essential for helping visually impaired individuals navigate your space independently and safely.
A fully compliant and accessible building demonstrates professionalism and a commitment to all members of the community. It’s a sign of quality for any modern institution.
Street Style Sign Studio is a specialist Braille sign maker that understands the technical nuances of the law. We manage the entire process to guarantee your signs are 100% compliant.
Fabricating and installing compliant men’s, women’s, and all-gender/unisex restroom signs with correct tactile pictograms and Braille.
Critical for life safety. We produce “EXIT,” “STAIRS,” and floor-level identification signs for all fire-rated stairwells, as required by code.
Creating tactile room numbers, elevator Braille signs, and room identification signs (e.g., “Conference Room,” “Electrical Closet”) that meet all guidelines.
We can customize your ADA signs to match your building’s interior decor and brand standards while remaining fully compliant with all font, finish, and contrast requirements.
A sign with Braille on it is not automatically compliant. The ADA specifies strict rules that we follow meticulously.
Deep Code Expertise: We are experts in the federal ADA, as well as specific NYC DOB and building code requirements for signage, ensuring you pass inspection.
In-House Fabrication: We are a true Braille sign maker. We control the entire production process, including Braille dot placement and tactile character raising, for total quality control.
Strategic Consultation: We don’t just “take an order.” We’ll review your floor plans or do a site walk-through to ensure every required sign is accounted for, protecting you from oversights. This includes identifying specific accessibility needs and helping you understand why braille and tactile signs matter in public restrooms and other high-traffic areas.
Custom Designs, Compliant Execution: Your signs don’t have to be ugly. Our design team can create a beautiful, custom-branded sign package that seamlessly integrates all ADA compliance requirements.

In general, any sign identifying a “permanent room or space” must be ADA-compliant. This includes restrooms, room numbers, specific rooms (like “Office,” “Closet,” “Stairs”), and elevators. Directional/wayfinding signs and temporary signs have different rules.
For the raised (tactile) lettering on the sign, no. The ADA requires a specific, easy-to-read sans-serif font. However, we can often incorporate your brand’s logo or font elsewhere on the sign as a visual element, as long as the compliant portion is correct.
The rules are very specific. For a single door, the sign must be mounted on the wall on the latch side of the door. The baseline of the tactile text must be between 48″ (minimum) and 60″ (maximum) from the finished floor. We handle all these measurements for you.
We highly advise against it. You run a significant risk that the signs are not compliant with all aspects of the law (font, dot spacing, contrast, finish). Furthermore, they won’t be installed at the correct location or height, meaning you will fail inspection. You need a professional partner who understands the full scope of the law, from fabrication to installation.
Yes. As professional Braille sign makers, we guarantee that the signs we produce and install for your project will be fully compliant with all applicable ADA and NYC local accessibility codes.
