THE VALUE OF INTERIOR WAYFINDING

At Pensacola Sign, we treat every project like a new fresh opportunity to artistically and technically execute a wayfinding strategy. It’s critical that people inside your place of business can comfortably and easily navigate your halls and safely find what they’re seeking. Quality wayfinding in key to ensure safety, properly identify notable areas, increase ease of navigation and foster good interior traffic flow.

INTERIOR WAYFINDING TIPS

If you’re considering creating or installing interior wayfinding, here are a few helpful tips:

• Brand consistency throughout your signage is accomplished only with a cohesive and well-designed sign system. Outlining key branding requirements and signage needs at the onset of a project will aide in creating that consistent approach.
• There are simple, basic sign systems available or you can create a totally custom system that uses the environment, architecture and company brand to create a more unique experience. Be sure to evaluate all available options.
• Ease of updates (or the changeability of sign) greatly depends on the type of interior wayfinding signage you select. A quality sign system can be changed easily and cost effectively without affecting the aesthetic of the sign.
• A good wayfinding system maintains readability and information control. Too much on a sign is information overload and causes confusion for your visitors.
• Consider any long-term plans for campus expansions or other signage needs you may have in the future so that all can surveyed, evaluated and coordinated together. This maximizes brand control and helps ensure budgets are properly managed. Many projects can be approached in phases as needed.
• Not all interior wayfinding options are created equal. Their lifetime greatly depends on the quality of materials used to craft them and the approach taken to installation. Be sure to speak with your Pensacola Sign technician to receive expert direction on the style that’s right for your needs and budget.

THE VALUE OF EXTERIOR WAYFINDING

There are a lot of good things that can come from a thoughtfully planned and well-executed exterior wayfinding system. Properly directing traffic and maintaining good traffic flow are certainly the most notable. Visibility across distances also helps point people in the right direction when identifying entrances, building names and areas of interest on your campus.

EXTERIOR WAYFINDING TIPS

If you’re evaluating a new approach to your exterior wayfinding system, here are a few helpful tips:

• All words on your signage should be clear, concise and legible for maximum readability. You’ll also want to explore using contrasting colors and a brand consistent look throughout your wayfinding system.
• Keep in mind that you don’t have to have every location in a building on a wayfinding sign. Focus on large areas and building locations that are the most relevant to where a person would be on a campus or at a building.
• Consider existing traffic patterns and the positioning of your building—both will impact your exterior wayfinding signage needs.
• Planning is very important. We commonly get asked to repair or refurbish sign systems that were installed without thought to future expansion or changeability needs. A comprehensive survey with mapping will help ensure a well-executed project sure to stand the test of time.
• Consider how landscaping will be handled around your exterior signs. For example, the potential damage from regular sprinkler spray or weed eaters could be mitigated by putting a simple base on a pylon sign and maximize durability.
• There are many quality materials suitable for a wayfinding system including acrylics, PVCs and aluminum. A skilled signage partner can assist you in choosing the material that’s right for you and will ensure a long-lasting structural product.

In addition to standard signage, the Pensacola Sign team is well versed in creating ADA-compliant wayfinding and informational signage that adheres to the guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Our design know-how coupled with leading-edge technology allows you to reach additional patrons through braille while seamlessly matching the rest of your signage system and branding.

THE VALUE OF ADA SIGNS

All new construction and renovation to existing public buildings are required to use ADA-compliant signage on facility doors, permanent rooms, restrooms, stairwells and other notable spaces. This allows patrons of all need levels to safely and confidently navigate your facility.

ADA SIGN TIPS

If you’re considering a custom ADA sign for your business, here are a few helpful tips:

• Regulations and guidelines do change occasionally, making it extremely important to partner with a sign company who regularly reviews all the new data and guidelines.
• Not all signs require ADA compliance. The regulations are most focused on informational (directories), wayfinding and room identification. You’ll want to choose a design approach that not only meets ADA standards, but also has a consistent design that can be carried throughout all types of signage within your facility.
• When designing ADA signage, one must follow any rules on letter height, stroke thickness, spacing and color contrast. For installation, ADA signage must be mounted at a certain height or feature a certain level of visibility from a defined distance.
• In the medical field, there are further requirements to note that overlap ACHA, including labeling medical gases, biohazard containment and rooms.
• Specialized equipment is required for a signage company to create long-lasting, high-quality ADA signage. Be sure to inquire about the in-house capabilities your selected sign partner possesses.
