Telford College case study: Making a campus 100% DDA compliant

Signs Now have helped Telford College become 100% DDA compliant in all of their signage - and just in time for an official visit by Princess Anne!

Terry Smith, Deputy Principal of Telford College said: "Signs Now have been an excellent supplier to the College, and helped us tremendously in the year long project to get all of our signage compliant with the Disability Discrimination Act."

The college is on a large site with many buildings, and the amount and type of signage was large and varied: for example:
- directional signage
- tactile signs on lifts and doors
- car park signs
- ofice door signage
- safety signs

In the older buildings on the site the new compliant signage needed to be retrofitted into the existing structure, but in all new buildings it was installed from scratch.

"Obviously putting new compliant signs into an older building takes longer" said Terry, "but Signs Now were excellent, working as quickly as possible and fitting in with our requirements."

"At all times, Signs Now were an excellent partner in this project, offering quaility advice on what we needed to do - which at times is more valuable than good service."

This project had the additional pressure of getting ready for an official visit by Princess Anne to formally open the new buildings on campus. "Normally getting the correct signs installed is not exactly a time-pressured activity! said Terry "but in this case we has an unmovable deadline that we just had to be ready for! Signs Now were excellent in adding the resources to the project just when they were needed."
