Forget the casseroles: elevator floor number signs serve as an informal welcome committee because it’s the first sign a person sees when arriving on a new floor or stop. Two (2) elevator floor number signs are required per level—one on each side of the elevator door jamb or hoistway (the flat surface running vertically up the door frame's side). Elevator door jamb signs also include floor numbers or letters in raised text and Grade 2 Braille to assist those who are visually impaired. ADA compliance is guaranteed! These elevator floor level signs prevent a busy employee from getting off the wrong floor and provide direction for first responders.
California residents, listen up! California Code 116B.1.14 has some specific requirements. Your state-compliant floor number sign must have white raised characters against a black background, and the sign for your ground floor will need a floor number sign marked by a star symbol as well. |
