Which Disabled Signs Should You Display? A Comprehensive Guide for Businesses

As a business owner, it's important to make sure your establishment is accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. This includes having the right disabled signs displayed. But with so many different types of signs available, it can be confusing to know which ones you need.

This guide will help you understand the different types of disabled signs and which ones are right for your business.

Types of Disabled Signs

There are many different types of disabled signs, but some of the most common include:

• Wheelchair accessible signs: These signs indicate that an area is accessible to people who use wheelchairs.

• Disabled toilet signs: These signs indicate that a toilet is accessible to people with disabilities.

• Hearing aid compatibility signs: These signs indicate that an area is equipped with a hearing loop system.

How to Choose the Right Disabled Signs

The type of disabled signs you need will depend on your business. For example, if you have a restaurant, you will need to display wheelchair accessible signs at the entrance, in the dining area, and near the restrooms. If you have a retail store, you will need to display wheelchair accessible signs at the entrance and near any areas that are not accessible, such as stairs.

Consider the following factors when choosing disabled signs:

• The size and layout of your business

• The types of disabilities that your customers are likely to have

• The local regulations in your area
