When Atkins, (the Internationally acclaimed Building Management Consultants http://www.atkinsglobal.com who look after Her Majesty’s Court Service) wanted to meet the DDA regulations for 16 Crown & County Courts throughout the South West of England, they turned to Architectural Symbols & Signs. A lot of the buildings are either listed or of significant architectural importance, and that was a major reason why Atkins chose AS&S. All the courts were audited for their requirements over a 2-week period and advice was given about the signs that were needed and where to locate them for DDA compliance.

Let our experts assist you by conducting an audit/walkthrough of your buildings with you to guide you as to which signs you will require for DDA compliance.
