YouTube discussion ADA

 

Signs for San Diego offers you a YouTube video link on many Fridays. Today’s video is about ADA Signs

The ADA law is now 25 years old. You need to place signs in your building that comply. There are requirements for the disabled. If you have no idea what those requirements actually are, here is a video to start understanding this.

ADA Signs

ADA Signs

You can Google this and get a hundred answers, but most have nothing to do with signs. This video is focused to signs. There are massive sets of rules and regulations called the Americans With Disabilities Act. The language is complex.

Want the straight “skinny” in English? Want to understand it.

  • What the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) is and how it has changed.
  • It tells you what those squirrely dots at the bottom are
  • It explains a little about the out door signs and a lot about the indoor signs
  • It tells you about the locations you need signs
  • It tells you about: Fonts, Styles, Strokes, Sizes and other details that can trip you up
  • It tells you where to mount them and how
  • It explains what colors are required

Here is a start and it shows you where to look for more detail. This is the key to understanding a complex law.
