ADA Signage in Roseville, MN
Regulatory, Safety & Accessible Signage for Minnesota Businesses
Compliance-driven signage operates under a different set of rules than branding or marketing signs. ADA-accessible signs, workplace safety signs, and regulatory signs must meet specific code requirements for size, mounting height, color contrast, and wording. Getting those details wrong can create liability. Our project managers at FASTSIGNS® of Roseville, MN handle these projects end-to-end, from the first conversation through code-conscious design, production, and professional installation.

Minnesota ADA Accessible Signage Requirements
ADA Title III requires businesses and commercial facilities open to the public to provide accessible signage that removes barriers for people with disabilities. Minnesota’s Accessibility Code adds its own specifications on top of that, and knowing both layers is essential for any facility serving the public in the Roseville, MN area.
Key requirements that affect your signage:
- Accessible parking sign height: Signs must be mounted with the bottom of the sign at least 60 inches above the parking surface, with many specifications capping height at around 66 inches for optimal visibility.
- International Symbol of Accessibility: Minnesota Statute 169.346 requires this symbol on accessible parking signs along with notice that violators may be fined up to $200.
- Van-accessible spaces: At least one in six accessible spaces must be designated van-accessible, with a 98-inch vertical clearance requirement.
- Interior room identification signs: Permanent room signs must be mounted on the latch side of the door, with tactile characters between 48 and 60 inches from the floor.
- Braille and raised characters: Room identification and other permanent interior signs require raised characters and Braille to serve visitors with visual impairments.
- Color contrast and materials: ADA-compliant signs require high contrast between text and background and non-glare materials for readability.
OSHA & ANSI Safety Signs for the Workplace
We offer safety signs that alert employees, customers, and visitors to areas requiring extra caution. OSHA 1910.145 governs accident prevention signs and sets color and format requirements. The ANSI Z535 standard builds on that with a four-level signal-word hierarchy, each tied to a specific hazard severity and a standardized color.
Using the correct signal word and color isn’t just a style choice. It tells workers and visitors how serious a hazard is, and inspectors notice when the wrong level is applied.
Understanding the signal-word system:
- Danger (red): Immediate hazard that will cause death or serious injury if not avoided
- Warning (orange): Hazard that could cause death or serious injury
- Caution (yellow): Hazard that may cause minor or moderate injury
- Notice (blue): Important information not related to physical injury
Regulatory Signs & Minnesota Posting Requirements
Regulatory signs communicate your facility’s rules and legal obligations. The Minnesota Clean Indoor Air Act requires owners and operators of public places and places of employment to post a “No Smoking” sign. Beyond that, parking restrictions, fire lane markings, occupancy limits, and posted use rules all fall under regulatory signage. These signs document that your business has communicated its obligations to anyone entering the space.
From Consultation to Installation
We start every project with a conversation about your business and your goals before recommending solutions. For compliance signage, that means understanding the facility type, which areas need signs, and what code requirements apply. From there, our team handles design, production, and installation. We have experience installing ADA signs along with traffic and regulatory signs, with each one safely and properly mounted. When a permit is required, we can pursue it on your behalf.
