Development of long-term sign strategies to ensure goals and objectives are met
SIGNS BY DESIGN can provide a complete audit of your current signage program and make recommendations, cost estimates and schedules for needed repairs, replacements or new signage. We will address your signage needs for the three major types of signage:
- Identification signs identify your business. Examples are monument signs, channel letters, lighted signs, and awning signs.
- Directional signs direct people to, or within, your business. Examples are entrance signs, directories, parking signs, room numbers, and ADA signage (American Disabilities Act).
- Promotional signs showcase products, promotions, and events. Examples are lobby videos, trailer banners, vehicle wraps, POP (Point Of Purchase) displays, banners, and sidewalk signs.
Free on-site estimates, including ADA signage
Every business and public facility where the general public has access is subject to federal regulations regarding disabled persons. According to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), businesses and organizations with public access must make their facilities accessible and are required to offer proper signage to ensure the disabled can clearly understand how to access the building. The law is very specific in its ADA requirements:
- Existing facilities, under Title III of the ADA, are required to remove physical and communication barriers that inhibit the free participation of individuals with disabilities in the economic life of this country.
- Alterations to existing facilities after January 26, 1992, must have accessible entrance, path of travel to the altered area, restrooms for each sex or unisex, telephones (TDD) and drinking fountains to the maximum extent feasible. The path of travel to the altered space should be made accessible to the extent that it does not incur “disproportionate” costs—costs exceeding 20% of the original alteration.
- New Construction of public accommodations or commercial facilities must be “readily accessible and usable by” the disabled if the facility is first occupied after January 23, 1993, assuming the last official permission (building permit, etc.) was issued after January 26, 1992. The standard of compliance is highest for new construction and is not limited by “disproportionate cost” or “readily achievable” regulations.
ADA guidelines are minimum guidelines, not absolute rules. Although they are meant to be followed and taken seriously, the government is clear about the fact that the goal is accessibility. Therefore, alternate technologies and approaches are possible if they enhance accessibility. In the case of ADA signage, quality enhances accessibility. Poor quality ADA signage is usually not acceptable even if it follows the guidelines to the letter. SIGNS BY DESIGN offers you a professional signage package of the highest quality.
Experienced and creative graphic design services and logo development
SIGNS BY DESIGN professionals are ready to help you design high quality graphics for any application. We can offer detailed guidelines for your own image files. We can create your project from scratch or from your own original or stock photos. Files can be converted to large format images for posters, walls, vehicle wraps, etc.
On-site installation
SIGNS BY DESIGN has a reputation for quality materials and installation. Once you have selected your sign products, you can sit back and relax while we take care of the rest. Having professional installers with over twenty years of experience means that we (and more importantly, YOU) will never have to worry about a job that they install. We know it will be done right!
Customer Service
It is our policy that the customer should have no surprises, unless you’re surprised with unexpectedly good results! Advance planning and ongoing communication throughout the design, production and installation of your signs is the standard, not after-the-fact information.
Before beginning work on a signage project, our account management team sits down with you to determine budget, timeline, expectations and deliverables. Formal approval is received before proceeding.
This means that you, the customer, know exactly what is being produced, when it will be delivered and how much it will cost.
If circumstances or the scope of the project change, we will notify you immediately and propose mid-course budget adjustments. If the agreed upon budget turns out to be inadequate due to project changes, we will bring it to your attention, ensuring that we set priorities and stay within your budget.
At SIGNS BY DESIGN we work hard to achieve your goals.
