ADA PRINT REQUIREMENTS EASILY HANDLED
Braille, Disability & General ADA Signage
As your local Phoenix printer, we can help you with ADA signage printing to ensure it complies with local and national building codes as well as the Americans with Disabilities Act. Once your design and construction professionals specify the correct ADA signage for your project, contact PRI Graphics. We will make sure you get them printed and installed correctly.
Your printer for ADA signs must have specialized print and sign equipment to handle the job and at PRI Graphics & Signs, we have that equipment in-house. This allows us to get your job done quickly and at a reasonable cost.

ADA Signage Requirements
In the United States, the Americans with Disabilities Acts (ADA) has strict rules about ADA accessible signage in public buildings such as office buildings, schools, restaurants, and hotels. The objective of these standards is to ensure easy access, consistency, and a positive interactive experience for all persons with disabilities, regardless of what type of public building they visit.
Whether you need wayfinding signage or ADA signage printing for your building’s entrance, elevator, bathroom, or other location, the requirements are quite specific for:
- Braille
- Text sizing
- Signage material
- Sing location
- Mounting & installation
At PRI Graphics, we specialize in printing all types of signage and understand the ADA requirements. We can ensure that your new ADA signs are completely compliant.
