Many architects and designers are now requesting the Raster Braille process for ADA compliant signs. Raster bBraille bead signs use a combination of pressure inserted domed Raster Braille beads and applied laser cut letters with tactile elements. The Braille is formed by drilling a hole and inserting a small plastic or metal bead. The result is lasting and attractive. Are you interested in designing your own signs RIGHT ON LINE?, Or you can order by phone, or visit our showroom.
Signs can be designed with a full color background and even a raised logo. Each sign can have a different background and can be laser cut to any size and shape. This is a great option if you think that you’ll be adding signs on a continuing basis. Since there is not a minimum sign requirement when purchasing, it is an excellent choice for small offices and facilities.
The Braille is formed by drilling a hole and inserting a small plastic or metal bead.
