Accessibility isn’t optional — it’s essential.
At GDS, we design and fabricate fully ADA-compliant signage that meets federal regulations while maintaining clean, modern aesthetics.
Join us for a Lunch & Learn on ADA Signage Requirements & Best Practices — and earn AIA Continuing Education credits.
We’ll walk through how ADA signage impacts design, permitting, and inspections, including:
• Sign types & mounting locations
• Tactile characters and Braille standards
• Contrast, finish, and lighting considerations
• Common plan review and field inspection failures
• Integrating signage into construction documents
This is designed for architects, interior designers, and project managers who want to reduce revisions and avoid compliance issues.
