  • 1.  ADA compliant cast sign - braille

    Posted 07-29-2025 16:34

    I have a customer requesting to match these cast signs with braille. They need to be ADA compliant (the braille can't be flat). Grandview can't do this, does anyone have a reliable source for these? Thanks in advance!

    I would check with Gemini.  It seems like they would be able to make these, even with the rounded braille requirement.

    These are aluminum signs which Gemini can fabricate using precision tool milling, not cast, but looks very much like it.

    The one on the left looks cast metal like Gemini or Mattews, the right one is plastic also cast (plastic) like the blue handicap signs, we do them out of Duets and tactile with Braille instead.
