Regulatory Signs, Safety Signs & Custom Accessible Signage

Compliant signage isn’t just a legal obligation. It’s a core part of how a facility communicates with every person who enters. At FASTSIGNS® of Greenwood, IN, we produce Regulatory Signs, Safety Signs & Custom Accessible Signage designed to meet ADA and Indiana accessibility requirements while fitting naturally into your building’s visual environment.

The Americans with Disabilities Act requires buildings open to the public or to employees to include accessible signage identifying permanent rooms, spaces, and accessible features. Beyond ADA requirements, regulatory and safety signage keeps visitors and staff informed about facility policies, site-specific rules, and potential hazards. These aren’t afterthoughts. They’re a functional layer of your overall visual communication strategy.

What Makes ADA Signage Compliant

ADA-compliant signs for permanent rooms and spaces carry specific technical requirements that go beyond appearance. Knowing what those requirements cover helps you plan your project accurately from the start.

Raised Tactile Characters: Signs identifying permanent rooms and spaces must include characters raised from the sign face so they can be read by touch.
Grade 2 Braille: Grade 2 (contracted) Braille, which uses abbreviations to represent common words and letter combinations, must accompany tactile characters on qualifying signs.
Visual Contrast: Text and background must meet contrast requirements, and the sign surface must use a non-glare finish to remain legible for people with low vision.
Mounting Height & Location: The ADA Standards set specific mounting-height and placement rules for tactile room signs, typically positioning them beside the door they identify.

Not every sign falls under the tactile requirement. Building directories are generally exempt from tactile requirements altogether, while overhead directional signs typically need to meet visual requirements only. Knowing which category each sign belongs to shapes the design and fabrication approach.

Indiana Building Code & ADA Compliance in Greenwood

Indiana Code directs the state’s Fire Prevention and Building Safety Commission to adopt building rules implementing ADA accessibility guidelines at the state level. Those provisions apply statewide, including in Greenwood and throughout Johnson County, and are enforced through state and local building departments.

Local building departments may also apply additional amendments specific to a project. If you’re planning new construction, a renovation, or an update to your signage program, it’s worth confirming with the relevant building department which requirements apply to your situation. Our team can help you think through the signage scope while you verify the compliance details on your end.

Regulatory & Safety Signage Beyond ADA

Regulatory signage communicates your facility’s policies and precautions. Restricted access areas, no-smoking rules, dress code requirements: these signs set expectations before someone enters a space. Safety signage alerts visitors and employees to hazards or areas requiring caution and commonly includes exit, fire exit, emergency exit, and safety directional signs.

This category of signage appears across a wide range of settings: construction sites, private property, commercial parking areas, and workplaces of all sizes. Whether you need a single safety sign or a coordinated regulatory program for an entire facility, we can design and produce signage built to communicate clearly and hold up in the environment where it’s used.

Where ADA Signage Requirements Apply in Your Facility

ADA-required signage covers both interior and exterior locations throughout a building. Here’s where those requirements commonly come into play:

Accessible Parking: Each accessible parking space must be identified with a sign bearing the International Symbol of Accessibility, with the sign’s bottom edge at least 60 inches above the ground. Van-accessible spaces require an additional “van accessible” label.
Inaccessible Entrances & Restrooms: Directional signs bearing the International Symbol of Accessibility are required at inaccessible building entrances and inaccessible restrooms, pointing visitors toward the accessible route.
Elevators: Elevators that don’t serve an accessible route require directional signage, and elevator cab interiors have their own tactile and Braille requirements for floor identification.
Permanent Rooms & Spaces: Restrooms, stairwells, conference rooms, and other permanent spaces generally fall under the full visual and tactile sign requirements of the ADA Standards.

From Design to Installation: How the Process Works

A coordinated regulatory, safety, and accessible signage program moves through design, fabrication, and installation as connected steps rather than separate tasks. Our team manages that sequence, keeping timelines predictable and aligning the finished signs with decisions made at the design stage.

Signs built to ADA accessibility standards can be produced in a range of materials and finishes, including acrylic, metal, and wood, so they complement your building’s decor without sacrificing the technical requirements that make them compliant. Whether you’re updating a few room signs or outfitting an entire facility, we bring the same full-service process to every project.
