Whether you do business out of One Detroit Center, the Buhl Building or any class-A office building in the area, you need a variety of interior directory signage systems for Detroit office buildings to assist clients, patients, visitors and associates with finding their way around. Of course, if you happen to manage an Art Deco beauty like the Greater Penobscot Building, you want your signs to underscore the architecture rather than clash with it. This is where our friendly signage design experts from Majestic Sign & Design can help.
Wayfinding markers fulfill two distinct functions: they guide those inside the building to their desired locations with a minimum of one-on-one assistance, and they provide the type of accessibility that is stipulated by the Americans with Disabilities Act. There are plenty of options when you choose your interior signage.
- Framed signs. Ideal for individual offices, the frames allow you to insert printed acrylic or paper sheets. When the occupant changes offices, the sign travels with the individual while the frame remains in place. This increases your flexibility with respect to personnel assignments while it also allows for a minimum of room confusion due to the ease with which you can make new room assignments public.
- ADA lens covers. Use these non-glare covers to ensure full compliance with the law. When you want all of your room designations to be easily readable for those with disabilities, these lens covers work beautifully.
- Directory sign. Choose this type of marker near the elevators and stairs. It guides visitors to the right floor. List occupants by company name, individual occupant name or by suite number. As a general rule of thumb, it is always better to buy a larger directory to which you can add than a smaller one where you run out of space when the building nears full occupancy. This is particularly important when you are a building manager who rents office space to physicians or attorneys. These professionals may add more specialists to their firms, which in turn calls for additional listings on your directory.
- Freestanding pylons. These are the types of interior directional signs that you would normally find at the door. They point visitors to the right, the left or a mezzanine. Put up these markers well ahead of directory signs.
- Amenity markers. Signage for building amenities is a necessity. These signs include wayfinding markers for restrooms, escalators, elevators, emergency exits and stairwells. These signs must be ADA compliant.
