Braille Signs

Where do you locate Braille signs for people who can’t see?

When considering fitting Braille signs, the consistency of their location is of paramount importance; it is common sense that a Braille sign is only useful if the intended user groups know where to find them…

Architectural Symbols & Signs are the only company who has addressed the big issue of consistency of location for Braille signs, which is why we designed and now manufacture finger push plates for doors with Braille messages. By using these products the geographical area that people have to search for information is greatly reduced. (See an image below).

All ‘Louis Range’ Braille signs supplied by Architectural Symbols and Signs have been constructed to the highest standards using high quality metals.

All Braille signs comply with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) and come with favourable properties, including chamfered edges for safety and self-adhesive backings for quick installation, meaning no need for drilling holes.

Furthermore, the quality metal that we use offers durability and a smooth surface, which sets it apart from other Braille signs produced by many other companies in the industry.

We are well respected for our Braille finger push plates for doors and are currently the only company in the world that manufacture these.
