At Legacy Custom Signs and Graphics, we recognize that effective wayfinding is crucial in hospitals and medical facilities. As Castle Rock’s top-rated signage provider, we specialize in creating custom ADA-compliant Braille signs designed to foster accessible, inclusive environments optimized for patients, visitors, and staff alike.
Crafting Compliant & Functional Signs
Legacy Custom Signs and Graphics has helped local hospitals, clinics, and care centers implement ADA signage that adheres to the most up-to-date regulations. We closely collaborate to identify key areas in need of accessible signs before manufacturing durable solutions featuring:
- Tactile characters and Grade 2 Braille properly formatted per ADA rules
- High-contrast text and symbols for readability
- Clear, concise messaging and directional information
- Materials built to withstand heavy hospital foot traffic and cleaning
Our conveniently located Castle Rock headquarters houses an expansive production facility allowing rapid in-house fabrication utilizing the latest sign-making technologies. This enables us to quickly deliver compliant signage made to last within hospitals’ busy settings.
Optimizing Placement for Intuitive Wayfinding
Merely installing ADA signs checks the compliance box but fails to provide truly accessible and functional wayfinding. Our team goes further by studying your facility’s layout and traffic flows to strategically place signage for intuitive navigation at key decision points. We also oversee proper mounting based on sight lines and reach ranges.
For example, we may recommend larger overhead signs at key intersections displaying arrows paired with tactile maps for simplified self-guidance. Or, install a series of smaller signs with room names and numbers organized logically based on corridors. Optimizing placement based on space and flow removes accessibility barriers.
Fostering Inclusivity Through Design
Beyond functional placement, we enhance inclusivity by tailoring signage design and aesthetics to strengthen your facility’s unique branding. From coordinating colors and materials to incorporating logos, we create cohesive ADA signage aligned with your image. Visitors immediately recognize that accessibility contributes to an overall welcoming environment.
We also educate staff on signage best practices post-installation to reinforce inclusivity. For example, keeping signs clear of temporary flyers that obstruct tactile characters or Braille. Maintaining signs promotes the inclusive culture signage establishes.
Success Story: Enhancing Access at Local Hospital
A major Castle Rock hospital lacked adequate ADA signage despite growing community needs. We performed an audit identifying key areas needing improved wayfinding, from clinic entrances to elevator banks. Compliant signs now guide patients intuitively while reflecting the hospital’s vibrant color scheme.
Introduce Inclusivity Through Accessible Signage
At Legacy Custom Signs and Graphics, we view ADA signage as more than just a compliance obligation. We see it as an opportunity to make hospitals more inclusive by removing barriers and clarifying navigation for all. Our specialized expertise in designing and positioning custom Braille signs establishes intuitive wayfinding while reflecting your organization’s welcoming spirit. Let’s discuss how to make your Castle Rock healthcare facility more accessible.
