This afternoon I am starting on a job which involves installing about 500 ADA signs at a new high school still in the final stages of construction.
Is anyone aware of any recent changes that I need to be aware of on installation? As far as I know the proposed changes have not yet been made law so we should go by what is law currently.
Here's what I have, for your review, please correct if wrong:
60" from floor to center of sign
Placement on the wall nearest the latch side of door
4" from edge of sign to door for new construction (3" on existing buildings)
We are planning to put many of them on the glass relights, hopefully that is still considered wall or there is no possible place to put them.
Update:
I managed to get a hold of a human at the Justice Department, responsible for enforcement of ADA, and verified that we should use the old regulations until the new ones under review are actually approved.
